Changes

I am happy to see your recent additions on Costa Rica, but please don't write in the first person on Hitchwiki ("no one I spoke to had ever heard of 'Cuatros bomberos'"). Hitchwiki aims to offer generalized advice independent of any one editor. If you absolutely must specify that something was personal experience, write in the third person and link to your username. (Also, please be careful to use correct spelling and grammar.) Thanks! [[User:CRCulver|CRCulver]] ([[User talk:CRCulver|talk]]) 00:16, 8 May 2013 (CEST)

:Where are you getting this from, about the prohibition against first person? I see first person used throughout hitchwiki, and I find it very useful. Are there community agreed-upon policies and guidelines you are referring to? -- [[User:Irningston|Irningston]] ([[User talk:Irningston|talk]]) 23:43, 8 May 2013 (CEST)

::Yes, although "should" is too strong. It would be nice to do it, as it keeps only the '''real''' Recent Changes visible. Ditto for experimenting on your own page. It's not very interesting for others to see that User:Prino has been changing his user page(s) and rather than using '''Preview''', has used '''Save page''' 42 times. (No, I don't, but I do hide "''new trip''" the changes I make to my User and log pages) For what it's worth, I usually middle-click the '''Hide''' link as that stops the page from refreshing, which means you can hide a lot of entries very quickly, closing tabs is faster that scrolling down again and again.

Hey, thanks for the welcome message! I very like this wiki, and it's very useful for hitchhikers like me with few experience. Hope to see you around! --[[User:Francesc4052|Francesc4052]] ([[User talk:Francesc4052|talk]]) 22:57, 27 October 2015 (CET)

Hi, thank you for the warm welcome! I am mostly active on the map adding points, but from now and then I might add something to the wiki as well :) --[[User:Santa klaus|Santa klaus]] ([[User talk:Santa klaus|talk]]) 12:06, 26 January 2016 (CET)

:Wow, thanks! Hopefully I'll be able to put these new tools to good use! Cheers! -- [[User:Irningston|Irningston]] ([[User talk:Irningston|talk]]) 17:16, 5 May 2016 (CEST)
