Wikivoyage is the travel guide anyone can edit. After a period of beta starting November 10, 2012, we formally launched on Wikimedia Foundation servers on January 15, 2013.
Wikivoyage brings together the former Wikitravel community and content (in several languages), the German language Wikivoyage community, who had forked from Wikitravel in 2006, and the Italian Wikivoyage community, who had forked from Wikitravel in 2007, with the larger free content worldwide Wikimedia movement community. We look forward to continuing our always amazing travel guide writing experience with everyone! Thanks for supporting Wikivoyage!

New language versions can be started on Wikimedia Incubator. If they grow large enough and develop a strong community there, they will be moved to their own subdomain. See the list of Wikivoyage projects on Incubator, and the queue of projects to be started there.
Wikivoyage Association [Bearbeiten]
The Wikivoyage Association used to host the Wikivoyage project. Now it's applying to become a Wikimedia thematic organisation. You can apply for membership to support the association and the Wikivoyage project.

Subpages [Bearbeiten]
Because Meta is a vast and wild wiki, we maintain our Meta Wikivoyage specific pages as subpages (eg Wikivoyage/Somepage). This makes it obvious they are part of our project and makes it easy to find and update them. All our pages are in English with the exception that translations, when desired, may be created as language code subpages of the respective English page (eg in German: Wikivoyage/Somepage/de).
The travel guide project proposal, formerly on this page, is archived in Wikivoyage/Archive/2012-11-16 and its talk page.
