When listing things to '''See''' or '''Do''' in a destination, use the following format.
Here's the Wiki markup:
<nowiki>
Here's an example from San Francisco/North Beach:
Notes on the format:
<nowiki>* <see name="" alt="" address="" directions="" phone="" email="" fax="" url="" hours="" price="" lat="latitude" long="" tags="">description</see></nowiki>
; name : The name of the attraction. ; alt : If the place has a significantly different name in the local language, add it here. Non-Latin scripts like Japanese, Devanagari, Cyrillic etc can be used. ; address : Street and number of the place, plus district if applicable. No postcode, and don't repeat the city name. ; directions : Additional directions for how to find the place (if necessary). ; phone : Direct telephone number of the attraction office. ; e-mail : E-mail address of the attraction office. ; fax : Fax number of the attraction office. ; url : Link to the attraction office official website. Include the ''http://''. ; hours: opening hours of the attraction, when applicable. ; price : The price of admission. If there are large differences (eg. adults and children), note them both. ; lat: Decimal latitude (GPS coordinates) for map output. Not yet displayed. ; long: Decimal longitude (GPS coordinates) for map output. Not yet displayed. ; tags: comma-separated list of free-text tags. Not yet displayed. ; description : Text describing the attraction.
All fields above are optional. If you don't know some information, just leave in the empty field, so somebody else can fill it up later.

Today, the building is home to a movie theater, museum, restaurant, and college. Visitors can take an elevator to an observation deck, which provides a great view of Warsaw. </see>

For long lists, creating subdivisions by attraction type (landmarks, museums, etc.) or location can make listings more manageable for users. Within each subdivision, when no other standard of ordering listings is used, '''alphabetical order''' should be the norm. If another standard is used (see for example London South Bank Museums), it should be clearly stated so any new listing can be added to the appropriate place.
Some attractions are just too complex to list in the brief format above. There may be interesting historical information, detailed information about different parts of the attraction, or whatever. Examples might be:
These kinds of attractions may need three or four ''paragraphs'' rather than ''sentences'' to treat them appropriately.
The difference here is by ''how much text is needed'', not ''how important the attraction is''. For example, the ''Manneken Pis'' is one of the most famous sights in Brussels, but there's only so much you can write about a small statue of a peeing boy. Importance of the attraction and how much text is needed are closely intertwined, but this format is keyed to the latter.
For complex attractions, we make a sub-section of the '''See''' or '''Do''' section with the following format:
<nowiki>Address (''extra directions if necessary''), phone number (''email, fax, other contact if possible''), [http://www.attraction.example.com/]. Days and times open. $entryprice (''extra price info''). </nowiki>
One to five paragraphs about why this attraction is worth seeing, things to pay special attention to, warnings, notes, historical or other background information.
Complex attractions should go at the ''end'' of the '''See''' or '''Do''' section, ''after'' any attractions in the list format above. Otherwise, it will look like the list-format attractions are part of the preceding complex attraction subsection.
A good example of a complex attraction is the Golden Gate Bridge in the Golden Gate district of San Francisco.
