Talk:Wellington (Colorado)
Status
editHi, @Ikan Kekek, Traveler100, Ibaman, Ground Zero: It's admittedly been a while since I have been active in Wikivoyage until recently (Apr-May 2020), and I came back to this article. In short, it amazed me how much we was able to pull out of a town with just under 10,000 people, and so I was wondering two things:
1. Should I move this up to Guide Status? (A guide being an article that wouldn't need to reference out to other websites, and more than adequately covers with eat, drink, see, sleep, etc, listings, and provides pictures.) I actually wonder if I should have done it a long time ago.
2. Would this qualify for "off-the beaten path", since it's the type of town that people don't consider much as they do pass through. People entering Northern Colorado have Fort Collins and Denver on the brain, as opposed to this charming town. Therefore, I would be open to the idea of an "off-the-beaten-path" take, ideally for May 2021, but I'm flexible with time. What do you all think? The only major concern on my part is that there just isn't enough images in Commons or online to make a page banner out of. Stay safe, Zanygenius2 (WV-en) (talk) 18:47, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
- I support all these propositions. I was about to move it to Guide but it's moved already. Ibaman (talk) 19:00, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
- Comment Thank You Ibaman, for your post :). I moved the status this morning. Zanygenius2 (WV-en) (talk) 19:11, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
- At this time, I think I can improve on the "Get in" section, particularily for buses. Right? Where else can I improve on the article? Zanygenius2 (WV-en) (talk) 21:00, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
- @Zanygenius2 (WV-en): It should have a custom page banner, but I can add one as long as there are suitable pictures on Commons. #Get in looks decent to me, but if you have travel-relevant information to add, that would be great! Are there any other points of interest or hotels that could be listed? --Comment by Selfie City (talk | contributions) 21:10, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
- @SelfieCity:I've been considering adding peculiar statue, however there are some problems with this. One, it's hard to access, as it's on a hill, and therefore you can only walk by it or drive by it. Adding on to this, it's in nearby Norfolk, Colorado, so while it's not far, it's out of the way. Third, is this a see, or do, or is it notable? You can see it here. Thank you, Zanygenius2 (WV-en) (talk) 21:28, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
- Probably "see." A park would be "do," but this looks like it's specifically the site. Feel free to include it. --Comment by Selfie City (talk | contributions) 21:31, 1 May 2020 (UTC)

* Comment @SelfieCity: Thank you for doing some cosmic work to the article, adding a pagebanner and making some grammar changes. So what do you think about this article being guide/Otbp nomination? Zanygenius2 (WV-en) (talk) 21:56, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
- OTBP? I think it needs more hotels listed. If there aren't any more, that needs to be clarified. But if the content is up-to-date, it definitely has a chance; it will just have to wait a while due to the number of U.S. destinations already in the queue. --Comment by Selfie City (talk | contributions) 23:32, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
