Can we please use the English titles? Danny

There is locally a certain confusion about english names, the term is translated in at least 4 or 5 different ways; so if one is looking for this kind of facilities, this should be the common name surely identifying the matter, otherwise one would risk to have a partial result (try a simple google search and you'll see).

I redirected the page to Agritourism, which is the English term. It is wrong to give the impression that this is an Italian phenomenon. It happens everywhere. In fact, the first entries in Google were to Portugal, the U.K., and the United States. Danny
There are some differences in how it is organised and run in Italy, as you know, with some peculiarities as a touristic product, but we are not here to advertise anything, indeed. Sorry if this was appearing. Gianfranco

[edit] Adding external links to Agritourism

I would like to start making some edits and adding external links to the Agritourism project. In fact, I am interested in transferring information I have been maintaining on my own academic website to Wikipedia pages. Agritourism happens to be my specialty, so I thought it best to start here. Regarding external agritourism links, I have carefully selected about 20 or so that I feel meet Wikipedias standards, but want to be careful not to turn this into a repository of external links as Wikipedia states. As this is my first foray into the world of Wikipedia editing, I would appreciate your experienced guidance in this process.Delayreality 05:19, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

Hello friend, maybe you could suggest those links here, for now? MarekTT (talk) 22:00, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Call for further contributions

Some suggestions to expand this article... ex: find villages from other wikipedia articles that are agrotourism sustained (I added the village Agros, in Cyprus). More related external links (check out some useful links and resources collection here: [1]... another problem is that from country to country the definition of what constitutes "agrotourism" differs, sometimes dramatically. I am currently doing a research to gather various definitions and try to find common grounds for a diversified description. So, your ideas are welcomed, cheers MarekTT (talk) 22:07, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
