WikiProject iconThis page is within the scope of WikiProject Cornwall, an attempt to improve and expand Wikipedia coverage of Cornwall and all things Cornish. If you would like to participate, you can edit the page attached to this page, or visit the project member page, where you can join the project and/or contribute to the discussion.
ProjectThis page does not require a rating on Wikipedia's content assessment scale.
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?!

Hi ... I am offering a WEA course on Local History in Penryn, and have been invited to join the WikiProject Cornwall, which I am pleased to do. I am not Cornish, but have lived in Cornwall since the turn of the Millennium, grew up in North Devon (which is much more similar to North Cornwall than anywhere in England), and lived in Plymouth for a number of years working for, amongst other organisations, the Devon and Cornwall Development Company. I have always had an enthusiastic amateur interest in history, an encyclopaedic knowledge of irrlevant facts about the past, and a passion for the dynamics of how the peoples of these islands have evolved and why, especially in this unique peninsula in which I was born and brought up and now live, very happily.
