OK I was thinking that maybe Wikitravel was still getting good edits but
Like.
There are SOOOOO many more compared to Wikitravel.
People have clearly realized the better site.

I'm thrilled to share that a tool I co-developed, View it!, won the #Wikimedia Coolest Tool Award at #Wikimania 2024!
Coolest Tool Award: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Coolest_Tool_Award
View it!: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/View_it!_Tool
View it! is a suite of tools to help users on Wikipedia and its sister sites discover freely licensed media. It includes a user script that injects a gallery of relevant photos at the top of articles across all Wikimedia sites (#Wikipedia, #Wikidata, #Wikivoyage, etc.). It also provides a web portal (https://view-it.toolforge.org/?q=Q192272) to search for media by Wikidata ID, as well as an API that simplifies querying structured data on Commons. On Wikidata, View it! has helped users add images to over 5,000 items to date.

When adding things to #Wikivoyage, such as hotels and pubs, is there an argument to create a #Wikidata entry for them if it doesn't already exist? Or would some of these places not pass the "notability" requirement?
The #WikimediaIncubator is where several language versions of free knowledge #Wikimedia projects, including #Wikipedia, #Wikibooks, #Wikinews, #Wikiquote, #Wiktionary, and #Wikivoyage, can be incubated–developed, tested, and assessed if @wikimediafoundation can host it.
