Talk to me:
Uzbekistan railways update
[edit]Hello Ground Zero. I saw you edited my changes for Khiva. Nice and practical edits, thanks. I guess you have more knowledge and rights here, so I thought I'll ask you the following. Could you update railway lines on the static map in Uzbekistan page? I was there Sep-Oct 2025 and went by train from Khiva to Bukhara, on a line not marked in the map. Please check https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uzbek_Railways, there is a map there of current lines. Regards, Aurimas Aurimaz (talk) 18:19, 31 January 2026 (UTC)
- Hello @Aurimaz: unfortunately, that is beyond my skill set. I just don't know how to make static maps. I suggest that you ask for help on the talk page at Wikivoyage:Mapmaking_Expedition. I don't know if we have many current contributors who are able to update maps, so it may take a while to get this updated. Thanks for your contributions to Wikivoyage.

- Thank you, I'll ask for help using the page you suggested. Aurimaz (talk) 14:14, 1 February 2026 (UTC)
Fix redirection of Aliabad
[edit]Hello Ground Zero. As we talked previously, I thought I'll ask you also help with the following. There is a town Aliabad, in Hunza Valley (Gilgit-Baltistan, de facto Pakistan). There seems to be nothing interesting for a tourist there, except for it is popular stop to change buses, minivans, etc. - then tourists go further. Therefore, it doesn't seem to make sense to have a dedicated page for it. The issue now is, Aliabad currently redirects to Gilgit-Baltistan. More proper and useful redirection would be to Hunza Valley (it's a smaller territorial unit, and Aliabad is relevant rather in this context). I.e. on page https://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Karakoram_Highway link for Aliabad goes to Hunza Valley, but it's link target, not redirection, that works here. Could you fix the redirection? I don't know how to do this myself, and I don't know if I'm allowed. There are more Aliabads than this, you can see in Wikipedia, but if first comes wins, then there's just one Aliabad in Gilgit-Baltistan, and it falls in Hunza Valley. Regards, Aurimas Aurimaz (talk) 09:42, 3 February 2026 (UTC)
- Done. If the other ones are significant, they should be linked at least from a toplink, otherwise that can wait until their articles are created. –LPfi (talk) 10:09, 3 February 2026 (UTC)
Hi, FYI I sent you an email about a recent block of mine. //shb (t | c | m) 22:20, 15 February 2026 (UTC)
Are you following me around?
[edit]It kind of feels like it... Purplebackpack89 18:25, 3 April 2026 (UTC)
- I have better things to do than follow you around. Not everything is about you. I am an administrator on Wikivoyage. I monitor a lot of articles, and pay close attention to policy discussions. Please withdraw ypur claim about me "making excuses to include as LITTLE information as possible in articles". Making demostrably false ad hominem attacks is disruptive and does not build community.

Blocking these two accounts
[edit]Would you mind of blocking these two accounts, which are Korid443 and Kaski433?
They are based on these two edits on Grenada: [1] and [2]. I suspect these are LTA 19 accounts. ~2026-69216-3 (talk) 03:21, 5 April 2026 (UTC)
- Quite likely, but this LTA only makes one or two edits per account, and then sets up a new one anyway. If i see these accounts being used again, I will block them. Ground Zero (talk) 03:28, 5 April 2026 (UTC)
- Agreed, not that much point since the filter picks up such accounts anyway (in the event a checkuser is needed). Sometimes I do for tracking purposes, but it's not critically necessary. //shb (t | c | m) 03:53, 5 April 2026 (UTC)
