BC Marine Activities
In Victoria (British Columbia), you added Marine Activities with a link to an external site, http://www.bcmarineadventures.com. I've removed this section, and here's why. I think it's great to have information on marine activities in Wikivoyage. But we want this information in wikivoyage. And, we want Wikivoyage articles to be usable when printed out and carried on a trip, not just when connected to the net. That's why the Project:External links policy is so strict. http://www.bcmarineadventures.com looks like a private-sector directory of links to attractions; it isn't the site for a specific attraction or for a particular destination. Thus I think it doesn't qualify. If you want to identify good attractions from that site, and then write up listings for them in an appropriate Wikivoyage article, that would be great. Thanks again forr your contributions. (WT-en) JimDeLaHunt 14:46, 22 March 2008 (EDT)
