http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Railroad_car -- appears that wagons could be ok? - Matroc (talk) 18:00, 26 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

I see. So "wagon" is used in Britain. Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:12, 27 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

I tried to create a new page called "Philippi" but it always sends me back to this Kavala page. How can I solve that problem (DocWoKav)

Enter "Philippi" in the search box. It will take you to the Kavala page, but at the top of the page it will say, "(Redirected from Philippi)". Click on that link to Philippi, and then click "edit". That should work. Ground Zero (talk) 10:45, 10 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for help. I tried without success. Isn't it possible to stop the link? (DocWoKav)

I've broken the redirect for you, so you can edit Philippi directly. But are you sure that it should be a stand-alone article? Does it meet the test of what is an article?
Specifically,
"Individual attractions should not have their own articles (in general). Their information should be listed in the guide to the destination in which they are located (or nearest destination for attractions located in the middle of nowhere). ... the can-you-sleep-there test is a good quick tool for assessing whether something merits an article. With a few very rare exceptions... there should not be articles about individual...."

Thanks again, but now the templates (city article) is missing. I don't know if you understand some German. May be have a look at (https://de.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Philippi) and tell if this would be ok for the English version too. (DocWoKav)

  • Looking at the German article, I can see that there is a lot of material. This site could qualify as an exception to WV:WIAA if the article has enough content:
"Cases where exceptions are made include attractions, sites, or events that are far away (too far for a day trip) from any city and would require an overnight stay, or so large and complex that the information about them would overload the city article. A good rule of thumb is that information about attractions, sites, events, and transportation should always be initially placed into an existing article, and only when that information becomes too large and complex (more than 3-4 paragraphs) should a new article be considered."

Yep,bit certainly looks like an article me. Thanks DocWoKav! Ground Zero (talk) 12:06, 11 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
Would suggest moving the Philippi article to Krinides which is the nearby town. --Traveler100 (talk) 07:13, 11 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
