[edit] Votes for the {{kayaking}} template

  • I vote for the "Sea_Kayaking_Wilsons_Promontory.jpg" image as I reckon it portrays kayaking in a general sense and the current image is a bit too specialised (i.e. not many people are aware of playboating specifically). Bennyboyz3000 12:48, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
  • I don't know, at least were I live more people know about whitewater kayaking than sea or lake kayaking and most non-kayackers wouldn't know the difference between a Sea Kyack and a play boat. SF

[edit] Votes for the {{Kayaking Member}} template

  • I vote for the "Thesinks.jpg" image, because as a whitewater kayaker, I obviously prefer it. Bennyboyz3000 12:48, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
  • I second that. SF who hasn't flipped in Salmon falls, Matt

[edit] Other Ideas

  • We could also have several different templates (hey, it's a Wiki!) for different users like ones for sea kayakers, slalom paddlers, whitewater kayakers, etc. Bennyboyz3000 12:48, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
    • I'll second that idea. It would work better for everyone - DevAnubis 12:55, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipaddle

I have a kayaking wiki called Wikipaddle.

Its aim is more to collect river guides, sea guides etc.

Could there be a collaboration between projects? --George Drummond 17:59, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Sure, sounds like an good idea. Also thanks for pointing me to your great Wiki. I'm not too sure about the best way to go about it though, so please let me know on my talk page. Also, it would be great if you could join the project. Bennyboyz3000 07:26, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
There could be if I was an admin on wikipaddle. -Bennyboyz3000 03:43, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
