User talk:Gil

Slightly belated welcome
Welcome to the Central Wikia!

We are a friendly community here, most of us active on an individual Wikia or more than one. Use the Community portal to ask for help.

Please keep an eye on the Special:Recentchanges to see what the community is up to and to help reverse spam and vandalism. And look at the overall organisation starting at Category:Browse.

If you have ideas for a new Wikia, please add a paragraph under an appropriate heading on Proposed wikis.

Enjoy!

Hey, you crept in quietly so nobody noticed at first!

Thanks for the note on my talk page (which I didn't see at first because it was at the top; I may move it down to fit the chronological order of the others). As for a Wikia of websites, I think someone proposed and started one. Have a look at Proposed_wikis. I'm now doing a little on IllumiRate, which is a small-scale Zeal.

Question re: Travel and Scotland Wikia(s)
Gil, I like your Europe travel page a lot. But WOW, talk about synchonicity! I came upon the Scotland Wikia just the other day and after thinking it through a bit, I put together a main page for it and began planning the next step.

However, I wonder if you would weigh in on this question I have before I move forward: After doing this, I came upon the travel Wikia, which I'd heard about but never visited. The Scotland Wikia was approved back in August, but is it duplication to have this and a Travel wikia? Where does something like this properly belong, or can both co-exist? Note that I kind of envision this as an interactive guide, not just a strictly touristy guide, but perhaps that's what the Travel wikia is, too. I'll be looking forward to your opinion on this. - Nhprman 04:30, 10 June 2006 (UTC)


 * There might be some duplication at first. The travel wiki is an experiment at the moment, and we're going to look at what sort of content we could merge from the place wikis, but what I'm expecting we'll find is that there is a lot of information in those that doesn't fit a tourist-focused wiki. One solution might be to have a "locals" wiki to accompany travel, where everything else could go, but we'd love to know the opinions of users of those place wikis on whether that seems a good solution or not. Please don't be concerned about the place wikis disappearing. We're not intending to "lose" any content regardless of which wiki that might end up on. Angela (talk) 06:21, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
