See drop-down box for suggested article edit guidelines:
Be bold - if you know something about Cornwall then put it in! We value your contributions and don't be afraid if your spelling isn't great as there are plenty of spelling and grammar experts on clean-up duty!
Articles on settlements in Cornwall should be written using the standard set of headings approved by the UK geography WikiProject's guideline How to write about settlements.
At WikiProject Cornwall we subscribe to the policies laid down by Wikipedia - particularly civility and consensus building. We are aware that the wording on Cornish entries can sometimes be a contentious topic, especially those concerning geography. You don't have to agree with everything but there is no excuse for rudeness and these things are best solved through consensus building and compromise. For more information see WP:CornwallGuideline.
These pages are not platforms for political discussion. Issues relating to Cornish politics should be restricted to those pages that directly deal with these issues (such as Constitutional status of Cornwall, Cornish nationalism, etc) and should not overflow into other articles.
Most of all have fun editing - that's the reason we all do this, right?!

Do we have any clue where the name of this tunnel comes from, or what it means?Anythingyouwant (talk) 22:41, 1 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
Brownqueen comes from the name of the woods that the tunnel runs under. I know that doesnt help much! Talskiddy (talk) 07:27, 2 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
After a bit of digging, I found a reference that says 'Brown Queen' is a corruption of the Cornish words 'Bron Gwyn' which translates into English as 'White mound' [1]Talskiddy (talk) 08:10, 2 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
Good detective work! I went ahead and added an etymology section to this Wikipedia article. 😜Anythingyouwant (talk) 12:57, 2 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
