==Separating verifiable fact from opinion and personal stories==
Three: here's an idea that crossed my mind while checking some of the contributions by less prolific authors yesterday, particularly the one about the advances from the border guard.
Opinion and personal stories should go in the talk pages (where they can and should be signed). '''Articles''' should not contain "I, me, we, or us"; they should be of a similar character to Wikipedia: factual and verifiable. You might like to consider including something of that under [[project:policies]].
Kind regards

:Well, I was thinking of allowing personal stories, if they are seperated well enough. Stories should be interesting though :) but I guess most stories about hitchhiking, told in a concise way, are interesting. It's not easy to "convert" stories into Wikipedia style articles, and I think we can be abit more free here about what to accept.<br>At least, I noticed that there were many additions in I, me, we, us" form in the former wiki. I rewrote the stuff that could easily be rewritten, but sometimes it's not. It's still useful information. And most hitchhikers coming here won't check out the Talk pages...<br>Oh, and by the way, thanks for your work here! It's greatly appreciated! :) [[User:Guaka|Guaka]] 08:41, 29 Dec 2005 (UTC)

==Name change?==
Maybe it's better to get another name for this wiki. Would do ''you'' think about '''Hitchhike Wiki''' or '''Hitch Wiki'''? It's a bit easer to talk about it that way. Comments please! :) Or other suggestions for names :) [[User:Guaka|Guaka]] 23:48, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
