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 need help, check out Help, or post a message in the travellers' pub. If you are familiar with Wikipedia, take a look over some of the differences here.--ϒpsilon (talk) 17:45, 8 November 2015 (UTC)
Autopatroller
[edit]You are now an Autopatroller. That change is probably overdue. Thanks for all your edits!
All the best,

buses
[edit]Do you happen to know anything about Intercity buses in France? Hobbitschuster (talk) 22:02, 26 July 2016 (UTC)
Sorry, no. Ä Vinnis Persön (talk) 07:36, 28 July 2016 (UTC)
Coordinates
[edit]I do not really understand the "update" for Hiidenportti National Park. The previous coordinates were (unless I made a mistake) at the nearest entrance and parking (63.9019 N 28.9977 E), while the new ones (63.868590 S 29.058624 E) are closer to the middle of the park, specified to the decimetre. One can argue about which is better, but it was a choice I made, which I think should not be changed without explanation.
(Eli: laitoin koordinaatit tietoisesti lähimmän parkkipaikan/infopisteen kohdalle. Siirto kansallispuiston keskiosaan ei ole "päivitys", vaan mielestäni vaatisi kommentin, josta voisi keskustella. Ja puiston keskiosaa tuskin tarvitsee määrittää desimetrin tarkkuudella.)

- Sorry for that, add it back if you wish. Will provide an explanation in the future.

Patroller
[edit]You have a long, good history of contributions. I now ask whether you would like to patroller, in effect the next step up from autopatroller.
Patrollers do not come with a lot of responsibility; their main two tools are rollback and Recent changes patrol. If you see vandalism in an article, click the rollback button and it makes the job easier than the undo button. Also, feel free to use it if you are reverting yourself for whatever reason. (Just keep in mind that it rolls back all your edits to an article, rather than just one, that were done in sequence.) However, it's best to avoid the rollback button for other reasons.
Would you like to be a patroller? It also takes you a step closer to Administrators if you ever want to be an administrator. --Comment by Selfie City (talk | contributions) 17:13, 2 August 2019 (UTC)

Hiidenportti
[edit]I see you have visited Hiidenportti National Park. If you have the time, could you please check the article and see if the article matches your experience? --LPfi (talk) 16:30, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
- Yes, it matches!Ä Vinnis Persön (talk) 05:13, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- Good. Thank you. --LPfi (talk) 14:51, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
Few and a few
[edit]You might have noticed that I often replace "few" with "a few" (like now in Oulu). The latter is the equivalent of joitakin, muutamia or the like, while the former means "nearly none" or something like that (cf tuskin). Saying that there are few sights more or less means that going there isn't worthwhile, which I assume isn't the intended meaning when a Finn says "few". –LPfi (talk) 10:33, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for the clarification! Yeah that wasn't my intention. Ä Vinnis Persön (talk) 10:36, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
