"Wikitravel Extra is a place for sharing the personal side of travel meant to compliment the consensus travel guides on Wikitravel. "

1. Should be complement. 2. Some words are missing between "meant to" and "compliment"

dang

I thought this was going to be a compliment!

I'm not sure what words are missing in "meant to complement the consensus travel"... maybe it's my California/Quebec English? What sounds better to you?

Eats, shoots, and leaves

I'd just stick a comma between "travel" and "meant". Although the whole "meant" wording is a bit awkward, as if you meant to do something but it's not quite working...

How about...

"Wikitravel Extra is a place for sharing your travel stories, photos, and conversations as a way to complement the consensus travel guides on Wikitravel."

Don't know what I was thinking

It did sound awkward, but I don't know why I thought that something was missing between precisely those two words.

How about "On Wikitravel Extra, your travel stories, photos and conversations will complement the consensus travel guides on Wikitravel"

A complement

I'd like to complement Ravi on having impeccable reading and spelling skills. 8)
