Wikimedians should not have to be given this advice when
attending Wikimania.
It would be nice if it wasn't necessary, I agree. So does everyone
here, as far as I know. That doesn't make it a sufficient reason not
to hold Wikimania there, since there are similar problems with pretty
much every country.
The most important advice that you can give to anyone
travelling in an
unfamiliar culture is to apply common sense to their behaviour.
Street-smarts are about common sense. The way some Wikipedians apply
common sense is worrisome.
