goList Guidelines

TripAdvisor goLists are compilations of the best (and worst) places, activities and things our members have encountered on their travels. They are individual, highly subjective opinions. The opinions expressed are those of TripAdvisor members and not of TripAdvisor LLC. We reserve the right to post goLists on www.tripadvisor.com, in promotional materials and on other affiliated TripAdvisor sites, without payment. We reserve the right to remove a list for any reason, without notification. goList content must be:

Family-friendly

We do our best to keep TripAdvisor family-friendly; therefore, goLists should not contain profanity, threats, prejudiced comments, hate speech or other non-family-friendly content. goLists should not discuss violent, criminal or drug-related activity, or contain outside links to inappropriate material.

Original

We ask members not to provide any information that they do not have the permission to make available, such as copyrighted material, trademarks, passwords, confidential information, or intellectual property of any other person. Lists should not contain quoted material from other sources or material published elsewhere, including other travel review sites. You may not post anyone else's contact information or the real name of any other member.

Individual from a traveler's perspective

goLists are for travelers, by travelers. They should not be written by ownership or management posing as travelers. Members affiliated with a business or property discussed in a goList must identify themselves as such. Members may not impersonate TripAdvisor staff. Screen names and post content should not contain anything that would indicate you work for TripAdvisor.

Unique and independent

Members may create as many individual goLists they like; however, we will remove any golists determined to be duplicates or spam.

Relevant to other travelers

goLists should contain travel-oriented material that is relevant and helpful to travelers. It should not contain any personally insulting language or descriptions, smear campaigns, or content which is not related to travel. goLists should not be used for general political, ethical or religious opinions or to harass or impersonate other members. goLists should not contain questions or comments directed to TripAdvisor staff, other TripAdvisor members or property representatives.

Non-commercial

goLists should not contain any self-promotional material of any kind. We allow links to pages outside of TripAdvisor, but we can only maintain this if it is not abused. We reserve the right to remove a URL for any reason.

Written with standard e-mail etiquette

goLists should be written in standard sentence or title case without ALL CAPS, HTML tags, typographic symbols or excessive slang.
