Welcome
Hello Aria.temple! Welcome to Wikivoyage.

To help get you started contributing, we've created a tips for new contributors page, full of helpful links about policies and guidelines and style, as well as some important information on copyleft and basic stuff like how to edit a page.

If you are a Wikipedian then you may notice some differences in policies and the style of our articles. These include:
 * NPOV → be fair (not quite the same thing!)
 * be bold → plunge forward
 * Village pump → travellers' pub
 * External links → We do not use a separate external links section, but incorporate primary links only into the text itself.
 * sandbox → graffiti wall
 * stub notes → Article status notes

If you need help, check out Project:Help, or post a message in the travellers' pub. Thanks for contributing! - (WT-en) Huttite 07:12, 18 March 2009 (EDT)

Comments
I notice you have made frequent contributions to Chestnut Hill recently. When editing a page have you considered using the preview option? If you preview, rather than saving every minor change you can get your article just right and only make one edit. - (WT-en) Huttite 07:12, 18 March 2009 (EDT)

Chestnut Hill
I have changed the title for Chestnut Hill from Chestnut hill because it was miscapitalised. Please also read our manual of style and in particular read Project:Article templates and Project:Listings. Your article has the basic look but not the real feel of our articles. Rather than simply bolding or emphasising text to create apparent section headings you need to use formal headings as detailed in the templates' boiler plate text examples. - (WT-en) Huttite 07:12, 18 March 2009 (EDT)

Copyright and copying from Wikipedia
I notice that the introduction for Chestnut Hill has been taken from the Wikipedia article. This is a copyright violation and even though you might edit the Wikipedia text, you need to attribute your derivative work. Unfortunately, Wikipedia's GFDL and Wikivoyage's CCbySA copyright licences are incompatable, which means your copy of the Wikipedia text is a copyright violation, and because you do not have the right to make a derivative work for Wikivoyage from the Wikipedia text any subsequent ammendment that still uses some of the copyrighted text is still a copyright violation. The only solution is a complete rewrite of the introduction that preserves the facts but not the copyrighted text. - (WT-en) Huttite 07:12, 18 March 2009 (EDT)
