xonovex Travel Writing Guidelines
Create useful travel guides from current, verifiable destination and venue information.
Editorial voice and multilingual prose are owned by editorial-writing-guide. Load it with this skill and apply its fact-preserving editorial rules to every guide.
Core Principles
- Verify practical facts: Research current hours, prices, transport, access, contact details, and restrictions
- Serve the visit: Put logistics, time needs, routes, and constraints where a traveler can act on them
- Separate traveler needs: Give distinct itineraries or strategies when budget, time, mobility, or group type changes the plan
- Write one source version: Verify one guide before translating it into other languages
- Record freshness: State when time-sensitive information was researched or verified
Operations
- Create: Research, draft, translate, and validate a destination or venue guide, see references/create.md
Gotchas
- Hours, prices, transport, and contact details can change quickly. Recheck them for every guide and refresh.
- Omit an accessibility claim when no reliable current source supports it. Do not infer access from photographs or general venue descriptions.
- An insider tip needs a named basis or supplied experience. Do not present a paraphrased general source as local knowledge.
- Check for an existing slug before writing files. Do not silently overwrite an earlier guide.
Progressive Disclosure
- Read references/create.md - Load when researching, drafting, translating, or saving a destination, attraction, or venue guide
