Hello, Themikebrown78! 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 need help, check out Help, or post a message in the travellers' pub. If you are familiar with Wikipedia, take a look over some of the differences here.

Thanks a lot for adding content to the Zipolite article, and also for properly attributing it. It's mostly really great content, but there are a few issues with it: First, I'm not sure what you meant to do with the pagebanner, but I reverted it because it wasn't showing up, probably because you didn't upload the file to Wikimedia Commons. Also, Wikivoyage uses listing templates, not listing tags, so please convert all the listing tags to listing templates. Finally (and this is not that big a deal), there are a couple of places where the article has the feel of a tourism agency brochure. I'll edit out some of the language in question. The relevant guidelines are at Welcome, tourism professionals, even if a tourism professional didn't add the content.

But above all, thank you.

If you have any questions, please ask below.

All the best,

 * I forgot, there are two other issues: First, is the police force active or not? These sentences seem contradictory:


 * There is no real active police force Zipolite which means it's easy to come by drugs, and has been since the 60's. Smoking marijuana is pretty commonplace and tolerated, however, police look for people passing joints back and forth on the beach, so be careful when doing so.


 * Secondly, the following sentence recommends bribery, which risks running afoul of Illegal activities policy. Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:48, 10 April 2015 (UTC)
