Welcome
Hello! Thank you for your contributions to the Oregon Coast and Portland articles. Welcome to Wikivoyage. I hope that you'll keep sharing information with fellow travellers through this project.

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

If you need help, post a question in the Arrivals lounge. Ground Zero (talk) 18:02, 2 July 2021 (UTC)

Thank you my friend, I've used Wikivoyage a lot when planning trips, so I'm happy to give my knowledge about my local area back to the community. --Evoyo (talk) 19:15, 2 July 2021 (UTC)


 * Hi Evoyo, thanks for contributing! However in region articles such as Northern Oregon Coast, sections such as "see" and "do" are for prose only. Listings for local parks are only included in the lower-level destinations (cities, rural areas etc.). Those listings that could be articles of their own should be placed in the "other destinations" section as a link, and those that aren't should be moved to relevant destination articles. This is an important policy we have, but I'm sure there's a workable solution in this case. Thanks, --Comment by Selfie City  ( talk  |  contributions ) 00:39, 3 July 2021 (UTC)


 * Thanks for pointing that out Selfie. I was aware of the policy, though I'm still learning exactly where and how it should apply. I knew that some changes were going to need to be made, but hadn't thought everything through quite yet. I do think those destinations should be highlighted (appropriately) in the article text, and that some or all of them need to be moved to appropriate destination pages. It's in an incomplete state now since I haven't thought about the best way to do that quite yet. Let me take another look at it now. —The preceding comment was added by Evoyo (talk • contribs)


 * If it’s currently in progress, that’s OK! Feel free to do this sort of thing while you decide how to best organize the information. Most importantly we are here to write a travel guide and policy and formatting can be considered later. By the way you’re also welcome to use userspace (you can just create User:Evoyo/Sandbox for example) to draft articles and then move them to the article title if you ever plan longer projects, but using article space is OK too for articles that don’t already have too much information, like the Oregon coast article. Once again thank you so much for contributing! All the best --Comment by Selfie City  ( talk  |  contributions ) 01:17, 3 July 2021 (UTC)


 * Ah great! I was thinking there was a way to sandbox/draft articles, so that will be helpful in the future now that I know. I made some edits that should bring it more in-line with policy. Speaking of, would you mind looking at the work I did on Tillamook and the notes I made on Talk:Tillamook? I wasn't sure if it would be out of line with the typical policy, but I'm sure we can re-work things if need be. --Evoyo (talk) 01:22, 3 July 2021 (UTC)


 * Just create User:Evoyo/sandbox and do your drafting there. SHB2000 (talk | contribs | en.wikipedia) 01:41, 3 July 2021 (UTC)


 * In a similar vein to this conversation, I deleted what I considered excessive detail from some 1-liner listings in non-bottom-level articles. Details are better placed in local articles. Ikan Kekek (talk) 21:34, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
