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?!

2013 depot fire list and other recent deletionsedit
Latest comment: 10 years ago3 comments2 people in discussion
While a list of the buses destroyed in the depot fire may be of interest to some, it is Wikipedia:Fancruft and thus should not be included. The article gives an overview of the buses destroyed.Mo7838 (talk) 19:31, 20 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
What an interseting word! According to that guidance it is often considered perjorative (I can see that), and is generlaly applied to whole articles. I don't think that any of the recently deleted information fails the WP:NOT criteria.
1) The details of the destroyed buses are crucial to interpreting the fleet list further down the acticle as that predates the fire. Once a new, citable, list is available that may change. Informed readers may also notice the problem in the large number of full-size vehicles that have been replaced by hired-in small buses.
2) For the owner to be voted to a significant, honorary position in the bus community helps put his acheivements in perspective.
3) There is no 'correct' place for the Companies House registration citation, but WP:LEADCITE suggests it should support the body of the article in preference to the lead section. Geof Sheppard (talk) 12:56, 23 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
It is an interesting word.
1) Agree Can see your logic, and perhaps pending a new fleetlist being published, is valid
2) Disagree, the article is about the company, the outside activities / achievements of its owners or employees is not relevant
3) Partially Agree , is no hard and fast rule, protocol in other bus articles and rail (eg Arriva Trains Wales, Virgin Trains) is for it to go in the lead.Mo7838 (talk) 09:28, 24 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
