Hello Pashley! Thank you very much! I will probably still make some mistakes, but am giving this a shot. Macnar28 (talk) 01:40, 28 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
Anything to add at Teaching English perchance? Pashley (talk) 22:06, 29 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
There is a teaching English section?? I will take a look. Macnar28 (talk) 04:17, 30 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

toll free number in Hyuga article

edit

Hi, could you explain the toll free phone number for Hyuga Road Side Station, how should it be dialled? --Traveler100 (talk) 18:30, 25 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hello! If you are trying to call it from outside of Japan, you dial the number as is written in the article (+81 982-56-3809), but that will obviously be international (with the fees associated). If you are dialing from in Japan, you replace the +81 with 0, making the number 0982-56-3809. This can be a bit confusing, but is common in Japan. I hope this answers your question.

Dropping the first number (usually zero) in the calling code when calling from abroad is common in much of Europe as well. ϒpsilon (talk) 08:59, 27 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
Really? Wow! That is interesting. We don't do that in the US, so I was really confused when I first tried calling a Japanese number from an American phone. Macnar28 (talk) 01:37, 1 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

Docent

edit

Hi, Macnar28! Are you still available as a docent? I've noticed you haven't been on Wikivoyage since last year, so just need to check whether you want us to retain you as docent. Many thanks, ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 00:17, 23 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

Hello ThunderingTyphoons! I am still available. I've just been busy with other stuff recently. I almost never get messages about it, but I'll help when I do. Have a good one, Macnar28 (talk) 01:11, 28 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for your answer and for still being willing to help. --ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 07:36, 28 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
Hi again, just checking once more whether you're still available as a docent? --ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 18:01, 22 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
Since it's been more than a week without a response, I have removed your docent tag on Hyuga. Best wishes, ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 16:31, 31 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
