Hello David,

Welcome to Wikitravel. Please take a sec to look at our copyleft and policies and guidelines, but feel free to plunge forward and edit some pages. Scanning the Manual of style, especially the article templates, can give you a good idea of how we like articles formatted. If you need help, check out Wikitravel:Help, and if you need some info not on there, post a message in the travellers' pub.

I see that you have started work on Hampshire - there is obvously a lot more that can be added to the county. A couple of points on what you have done so far: (i) You can create a link to a page, without putting anything on the page - it then displays in red to let people know that it has not yet been started. This may be more helpful than opening a page and then just finding a "stub" message on it. You could also put a Template on it ready for people to use (eg. the code {{subst:smallcity}} ). (ii) You do not need to move a page until it "clashes" with another one (eg. Eastleigh). See the article on Disambiguation for more details. -- DanielC 16:11, 24 May 2005 (EDT)
