Hello TEMPO156! Welcome to Wikivoyage.
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 are a Wikipedian, then you may notice some differences in policies and the style of our articles. These include:
- NPOV → be fair (not quite the same thing!)
- be bold → plunge forward
- Village pump → travellers' pub
- External links → We do not use a separate external links section, but incorporate primary links only into the text itself.
- sandbox → graffiti wall
- content assessment → article status
It may also be very useful for you to check out Wikivoyage:Welcome, Wikipedians. If you need help, take a look at Wikivoyage:Help, or else post a message in the Wikivoyage:Travellers' pub, as a reply below or on my talk page. Thanks for contributing!
And thanks for your updates/fixes to Afghanistan. :)

- @SHB2000: Thank you so much for your welcome! I have years of academic research experience and en-wiki writing on Afghanistan, and much of the info I'm adding is well-referenced in Wikipedia. But I don't think I've ever seen a refrerence list on Wikivoyage. Anything you can tell me about that? TEMPO156 (talk) 10:23, 25 April 2026 (UTC)
- Not a problem! We don't usually use reference lists on Wikivoyage. The reason behind it can mostly be found at Wikivoyage:Welcome, Wikipedians#Style differences, with the main reason being that it's preferable that the links be inline or mentioned in prose to fit the style of writing you'd expect from a travel guide. //shb (t | c | m) 10:32, 25 April 2026 (UTC)
