redirect of
Tourist information

this is done. regardless of what google scholar says, the content between the 2 pages is utterly redundant. also: this page goes ahead to define a "Tourist information" center/office/what-have-you anyway. might as well redirect. ViniTheHat (talk) 17:33, 13 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It would have been cool if you wouldn't have screwed up the interwikis, after I sorted them correctly in all Wikipedias. A tourist information is not a visitor center. So please take the time sorting the interwikis right if you think this article merge is right for english Wikipedia. I was able to do it myself right, too although I don't speak all the affected languages. It would have helped (english) Wikipedia much more if you would have thought a bit more about all existing articles around that topic first, especially
Heritage center, Interpretation centre and Nature center, which all a special Visitor centers but not a simple tourist information you can find in every small town. In result the current article Visitor center has a poor definition and is a wild mix of independent snipets. Arnomane (talk) 15:54, 10 October 2010 (UTC)[reply

nah. you do it.
be bold. ViniTheHat (talk) 00:26, 13 October 2010 (UTC)[reply

That's not a question of being bold. I were bold and cleaned up all interwikis just because I fix errors where I see them and you certainly can understand, that once again cleaning up the same thing again because someone else didn't act very intelligent and who doesn't seem to have much insight is not the way to go. Arnomane (talk) 16:20, 16 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
"It is true, though, that problems are more certain to be fixed, and will probably be fixed faster, if you are bold enough to do it yourself." while youre at it, browse
WP:FAITH; unfortunately WP:DONTWHINE doesnt exist.. ViniTheHat (talk) 20:20, 16 October 2010 (UTC)[reply

Something like: "I am sorry. Let's see how to fix these articles together." helps more a thousand wiki "laws". 12:58, 17 October 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Arnomane (talk • contribs)

Split article?

In the UK at least, visitor centres and tourist information centres are rather different things, so I suggest this article is split. A tourist information centre provides information about a town/city for tourists, primarily places to visit/stay/eat/drink/shop. A visitor centre is located at a specific attraction and provides information about that attraction (perhaps also selling merchandise, food and drink). It doesn't give information about where to stay or eat or shop, nor does it tell you about other attractions. They're not completely unrelated concepts, but they are not the same thing. 149.241.216.67 (talk) 20:57, 8 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed that's correct and the Ordnance Survey depict both types of facilities on their 50K and 25K map series using different symbols; an i for an information centre and a V for a visitor centre. Definitions may well vary elsewhere in the world of course and any solution needs to take that variability into account. cheers Geopersona (talk) 06:20, 14 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Need to Split Information Centre and Visitor Centre

I am of the opinion that there is need to de-link information centre from visitor centre. the role of information centre is convey information. not only to tourists but also internal personnel of an entity or an organization whereas a visitor centre will be dealing with visitors.
