Wikivoyage Scraper
Spider read wikivoyage.org in 1.1 s without a browser and returned 80 lines of clean markdown, including sections like "If your edits are reverted" and "Stay".
### If your edits are revertedIf your edits are reverted, please feel free to discuss the reasons on the article Talk page. This is usually a better place to discuss than directly with the user who did the reversion, because reversions are usually for reasons of policy or site style that can't be resolved on an individual basis but may be subject to interpretation or discussion in relation to the article in question.There are a number of reasons that your edit could be reverted including:* The text may have been copied from another web page. Rewrite it in your own words.* The tone may sound more like an advertising brochure than a travel guide. Don't tout.* The entry may have been added to multiple articles or multiple sections. Just add it **once** to the most appropriate article and section.* The entry may have had erratic formatting, including excessive use of UPPERCASE. Carefully review syntax in Wikivoyage:Listings and Wikivoyage:Capitalization.* The entry may be of little relevance to the traveler. Rewrite to make it as helpful for travelers as possible.* There may just be too many entries of a particular type, and Wikivoyage is a guide, not an exhaustive directory. Entries that comply with our manual of style, that don't tout and that have verifiable contact information are less likely to be removed when a list grows too long.* If you are adding a tour agency, it may violate our policy on tours.* If you are adding an apartment rental agency, it may violate our policy on apartment rental agencies.Check the edit summary that was left with the reversion edit (click the "history" tab of the page), as it may explain why the edit was reverted. If you have created an account some wikivoyagers may give some reasoning on your talk page as well; otherwise, look at the user talk page for the IP address you used.## StayThe same call, in code.
