Welcome, external links policy
Hello! First of all, welcome to Wikivoyage, and I hope you find your time here pleasant.

Unfortunately, I have had to delete the posts you've made so far because Ridebooker is not a travel provider (e.g., a cab or bus company) but a consolidator, and consolidators cannot be listed, as you can see at External links.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them here or in the Travellers' Pub.

All the best,

Thanks for the feedback! I am new here. I'd like to note, however, the Whistler Shuttle is the only service RideBooker actually provides. Their address is Whistler Transportation Services Inc. 3036 Alpine Crescent Whistler, BC V0N 1B3

And as well, www.ridebooker.com/shuttle points direct to this service. Ridebooker Started in Whistler, and provides the most experienced and used bus service available locally. Do you think, with this in mind, that the post should be put back? Thanks!


 * In that case, yes, in the Whistler guide, Ridebooker should be linked in the listing for the shuttle. But only there. Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:34, 15 December 2012 (UTC)

Hello again! Thank you for the warm welcoming to this site. I'm interested. When reviewing http://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/North_America, would not the readers benefit from knowing they can use ridebooker.com to find their ground transportation options?


 * You're most welcome. To your question, my response is that that's not the standard here. We don't allow 3rd-party booking services to be listed here. Undoubtedly, such services might be helpful to some people, but Wikivoyage is geared toward independent travelers who prefer to do as much of their own travel arrangements as they can. There are many other places on the net where people can access booking services, travel agencies, and the like. Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:09, 6 January 2013 (UTC)
