Community guidelines

TrailNote is most useful when every contribution gives the next traveller one practical thing they can actually use.

Good contributions

Share first-hand details

What you paid, saw, used, or learned yourself.

Include when you visited

Freshness helps the next traveller judge the information.

Be specific

A route, fare, room type, useful contact, or practical warning.

Keep information current

Update your own tip when something you shared needs correcting. If another traveller's information has changed, report what you observed.

What doesn't belong on TrailNote

Advertising

TrailNote is not a promotional listing directory.

Copied reviews

Do not repost text or images from elsewhere.

Private information

Do not publish personal numbers or sensitive details.

Harassment

Keep contributions about useful travel information.

When information changes

If it's your tip, edit it to correct or update what you originally shared. Traveller confirmations given before the edit won't carry over to the updated information.

If you notice that another traveller's tip has changed, use Report a change. Your observation is added separately without replacing the original traveller's tip.

How moderation works

Report content that is spam, inaccurate, unsafe, or exposes private information. Reports go to a private moderator queue and do not automatically remove a traveller tip.
