# Lists and guides

_Lists and guides_ are a special [Yandex Maps](https://yandex.com.tr/harita?lang=en) section where you can save and collect interesting places and organizations.

For example:

- _Best cafes with outdoor terraces_
- _Cozy bookstores_
- _Dog-friendly parks_
- _Unusual city museums_

Comment on places, add an icon and a description, and share your lists with other users.

## List types {#types}

You'll see all your lists in the Yandex Maps **[Bookmarks and transport](*collections)** section.

List types and who can see them:

#|
|| **List type** | **Who can see** | **Notes** ||
|| Private | Only you can see it. | Private lists don't have any special labels in the interface. ||
|| Available via link | Users who follow the link can see the list. | Such lists are marked as **Available via link** in the interface. ||
|| Public | All Yandex Maps users can see the list. |
{% note info %}

A public list is called a guide.

{% endnote %}

Guides are marked as **Available to everyone** in the interface.

They may appear in place cards and organization cards under **In guides** or **Similar places**.

Whether users will see your guide depends on the algorithms — they considers various factors, such as views, clicks, and how many times the guide was added to favorites.

Additionally, the algorithms assess relevance by checking if the title matches the content, whether the locations include descriptions, and if there are any comments on places. For more tips on how to improve your guide, see [Recommendations](#recommendations).

All guides are subject to moderation. If your guide doesn't pass it, it will be marked as **Didn't pass moderation** in the interface.

After creating a list, you can [change its type](#edit-data).

## Publication rules {#rules}

We can publish lists that don't violate the service rules and applicable legislation.

To get your list approved:

- Make sure it doesn't contain:

    - Any insults, obscene language, or threats.
    - Promotion of prohibited substances or extremist ideas.
    - Discrimination based on any characteristic.
    - Adult content or scenes of violence.

- Don't use links.

    The list description and comments on places must not contain links to third-party resources.

- Don't enter personal data.

    Avoid entering any personal information about yourself or others in your lists, such as phone numbers, email addresses, or links to socials.

- Respect copyright.

    Use only those photos and descriptions that you have the rights to. Don't copy other users’ content without their consent.

## Recommendations {#recommendations}

If you want your list to stand out and get noticed by other users, follow our recommendations:

Create personalized lists

:   A list reflects your unique view of the city. Choose places you really like. Share your impressions even if the topic seems unusual. Sincerity is what really matters.

Add a list description and comments on places

:   Explain why you included each place in the list. Describe what your list is about and who might find it useful. Even a brief description will help other users understand your idea.

Keep your lists fresh

:   Cities are constantly changing: old places close, new places open. Revisit your lists from time to time and keep them up to date.

Experiment with formats

:   Lists can be different: classic lists, walking routes, or themed guides. Try different approaches and find the format that suits you best.
