| While ''vusers'' can help out on other user pages, they can't take possession - it's more like a super-editor. Vuser was set up for users who anticipate providing services to other listed entities.

| + | Garrett, you should probably create directory listings for the official country names & redirect what you have to those names. (I'd use a UN resource to get the official names.) For example, right now the United States redirects to United States of America, Mexico redirects to the United States of Mexico, etc. |

| + | Also, recall that we have a ''no parking'' rule. I'd love to see you become famous for pulling together an Int'l team of Wikipedians & MySpacers (?) to build out Web 3.0 country/business directories. However, remember that we need content - we can't let you just scarf up territory if there isn't any value-added content. |

You may want to keep something in reserve like Fodor's, etc. that is a separate brand from the countries they cover. [[User:Snerfling|Snerfling]] 17:36, 8 February 2007 (PST) |
