Help:User page

Wikivoyagers who create an own user account will automatically receive their own user page. Such a page provides:


 * … a brief introduction of the Wikivoyager.
 * … a personal sandbox for any Wikivoyager to work on designs and ideas outside the travel-guide namespaces.
 * … a communication channel to cooperate with other Wikivoyagers.

Brief Introduction
Normally, Wikivoyagers explain their intentions and interests in Wikivoyage within one or two short paragraphs. A photograph can suitable for this aim, but it is not necessary. Some Wikivoyagers use their user page to list their own contributions on Wikivoyage.

Do not forget that Wikivoyage is neither a personal websites hosting service nor an online holiday photo album. Overloaded user pages are considered a form of abuse.

If the user is logged in a “my contributions” link appears at the top of all pages which shows all the changes made ​​by the Wikivoyage user. This “User contributions” special page looks almost like the “Recent changes” special page.

Personal Sandbox
Wikivoyagers should use their sandbox pages to make developments on Wikivoyage or to create a “toolbox” with frequently used texts or Wiki markup. It could be helpful to create subpages (for example: “User:MyName/Sandbox”) for tools, lists, new article manuscripts, or to-do lists.

It is possible for other users to edit, change, delete, overwrite, or to mischief pages of others users and their sub-pages. However, it is frowned upon to do so, unless you are invited by the user.
