User talk:Mbah Victor Chukwuemerie

Welcome

Hello Mbah Victor Chukwuemerie! 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 are a Wikipedian, then you may notice some differences in policies and the style of our articles. These include:

• NPOV → be fair (not quite the same thing!)
• be bold → plunge forward
• Village pump → travellers' pub
• External links → We do not use a separate external links section, but incorporate primary links only into the text itself.
• sandbox → graffiti wall
• stub tagging → article status

It may also be very useful for you to check out Wikivoyage:Welcome, Wikipedians. If you need help, take a look at Wikivoyage:Help, or else post a message in the Wikivoyage:Travellers' pub, as a reply below or on my talk page. Thanks for contributing!

Keep in mind that this is a travel guide. Wholesalers in agricultural products are not travel-related, and unless you can make clear how a faculty of agriculture is relevant to travelers, it shouldn't be listed. That said, please read Wikivoyage:Listings for examples and information about the style of listings that is normally used on this site. Note, among other things, that "Owerri 460108, Imo" is default address information in the Owerri article and should be omitted from address tabs there. Thanks very much.

Thank you for your contributions to the Owerri article. Please use the 12-hour clock in Nigeria articles (e.g. 9AM-noon, 2PM-6PM), and don't ever type all in capital letters. Thanks. Ground Zero (talk) 12:11, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

I put a lot of work into correcting formatting mistakes in this article. I am not going to let you erase them. If you have more to add to the article, add it to the current version with my corrections, and please follow the Wikivoyage style. Ground Zero (talk) 12:18, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

@Mbah Victor Chukwuemerie: is there something about the style that we have asked you to follow that you don't understand? I would be happy to answer any questions. If you have decided that you are going to ignore Wikivoyage style and do your own thing, we are going to have a problem. Before you make further edits, please correct the errors you have made. Thank you. Ground Zero (talk) 12:48, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

@Mbah Victor Chukwuemerie: I think you need some time to learn about Wikivoyage policies, so I am going to stop you from editing for a few hours. Please use this time to review the links that Ikan Kekek has provided. This is a collaborative project. The Wikivoyage community has adopted policies for building a better travel guide. We ask that you follow these policies as you are contributing. Refusing to do so will lead to longer blocks. Ground Zero (talk) 13:15, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

@Mbah Victor Chukwuemerie: I have blocked you again, for the same reason. This time your block will last for one day. Is there something that you don't understand about how Wikivoyage works? Please try to work with the Wikivoyage community. We welcome your contributions, but ask that you respect the communtiy's decisions. Ground Zero (talk) 21:09, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

Good evening sir,

I will review my edit again

I won't type all the capital letters and I will use 12hrs time Mbah Victor Chukwuemerie (talk) 22:39, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

Thank you, Ground Zero (talk) 23:22, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

If am getting something wrong please draw my attention to the particular thing because I don't just input stuff on my own..all my input data was gotten from the Google map Mbah Victor Chukwuemerie (talk) 22:41, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

Keep in mind that Google Maps is not the best source to use, especially for coordinates. OpenStreetMap is better for that. --SHB2000 (t | c | m) 00:21, 10 July 2024 (UTC)

Ok sir..

I noticed my edit has been re-edited expecially the time thanks, I will adjust to what have been corrected Mbah Victor Chukwuemerie (talk) 00:39, 10 July 2024 (UTC)

I gave blocked you again for one day for the same reason. How can I convince you to use the same formatting style used in other Nigeria articles, the style that has been adopted by the Wikivoyage community? It seems that blocking you from editing is the only way to get your attention, but it doesn't get you to stop making these errors. Ground Zero (talk) 11:17, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

Am sorry for that sir, I was thinking my major mistake was the time which I adjusted didn't no it beyond that, now I know that if a business open every day I should use daily and the abbreviation for day to use are as follows M Tu Wed Th F Sa S and the phone number should start with 234 and since am adding restaurant in Owerri under Owerri I shouldn't add Owerri again..

Please sir unblock me as I have seen my errors and if there is another error am making please tell me so that I can take note of it thanks Mbah Victor Chukwuemerie (talk) 12:28, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

I have unblocked you, and ask that you fix the errors in the article. Please see my comment at Talk:Owerri. Ground Zero (talk) 16:05, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

Ok sir thanks Mbah Victor Chukwuemerie (talk) 17:13, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

Please sir, I just corrected the errors help me check to know if am in the right path Mbah Victor Chukwuemerie (talk) 17:59, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

Please check and tell me if am in the right path Mbah Victor Chukwuemerie (talk) 18:54, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

Yes, you are. Thank you for your cooperation. There are still so many errors in the recent edits to the Owerri article. Can you talk to your colleagues in this project? I have made some corrections just now, but I have limited time for the next week. Ground Zero (talk) 21:33, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

okay sir Mbah Victor Chukwuemerie (talk) 08:58, 13 July 2024 (UTC)

Good evening sir, most of the restaurant that was added we didn't actually know how to add description because we haven't gone there or so but I think one can get there with just the address...

So is there any other solution to it?

Cus we were told to leave description if we don't know it Mbah Victor Chukwuemerie (talk) 18:48, 13 July 2024 (UTC)

The question is: what is useful for travellers? A long list of restaurant names and addresses? Or a short list of restaurants with descrpitions that help them decide which restaurant they want to go to? I would rather read the second kind of article. Wouldn't you? Ground Zero (talk) 19:32, 13 July 2024 (UTC)

Yes sir Mbah Victor Chukwuemerie (talk) 19:39, 13 July 2024 (UTC)

So would you perhaps consider improving the article so it reflects like the second? --SHB2000 (t | c | m) 12:44, 15 July 2024 (UTC)

All the article i I input has been deleted, I wanted to re-edit it. Mbah Victor Chukwuemerie (talk) 14:23, 15 July 2024 (UTC)

Do you have any trouble finding the input you wanted to re-edit? If you click on the "History" tab of any article, you will see the edit history for the article, such as this page for Calabar. From there, you can click on the circle on the left for the last version you want to look at and click "Compare selected versions", resulting in something like this. You can then click "edit" on the left, edit whatever you want, select the edited listings or text for copying and pasting, close the old version, and paste them into the current version. I realize this is a multi-step process, but it's not hard when you get used to it. Please let us know if you have any questions. Ikan Kekek (talk) 16:56, 15 July 2024 (UTC)

wethdral

If I'm not mistaken, you've used this word at least twice. What does it mean? Ikan Kekek (talk) 01:13, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

Don't tout and don't copy and paste

Please read Wikivoyage:Don't tout, Wikivoyage:Copyleft and this edit summary before you (re-)add any listings. Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:10, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Ok sir understood Mbah Victor Chukwuemerie (talk) 12:32, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
