Wikivoyage

[edit]

Hi. I notice you're adding wikivoyage links to several pages. Note that, as a sister site, wikivoyage is already included as a link on the left navigation pane and should not be added to the See Also section (or anywhere else on the page). Thanks. --regentspark (comment) 00:39, 8 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I am following the basic templates given on https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Templates_for_linking_to_sister_projects. I am doing this based on an observation of mine and few other users of Wikipedia that, though link to Wikivoyage and other sister sites are included on the left navigation panel, the left navigation panel is rarely looked upon by a viewer, especially when they are engrossed in reading the article. Also when we have articles such as List of tourist attractions in Mumbai in the "See Also" section of Mumbai, i believe having a link to Wikivoyage article adds a lot of value, as articles of Wikivoyage are much better resource for anything related to tourism or traveling, especially for the places which are frequented by tourists a lot. Please share your views on the same. Thanks Death pilani (talk) 04:34, 8 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

That's not the way the template you link to works. If you read the linked page, it says to use the sister project template in the "External links" section and the template will then add it to the left pane. No where does it say you should inline a link to the sister project on the page. If you think the left pane link is insufficient, start a discussion (at WP:VP) and get consensus to change the method by which we link to sister projects. Don't just make the change yourself. Best wishes. --regentspark (comment) 23:50, 8 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
