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?!

Brighton, Cornwall

The photo is of Rottingdean windmill, Brighton & Hove. Wrong Brighton. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.3.229.32 (talk) 14:34, 24 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. The Wikipedia:The Great Britain/Ireland Destubathon is planned for March 2020, a contest/editathon to eliminate as many stubs as possible from all 134 counties.

English Heritage inspector, Draft:Francis P Kelly

Hello, I'd appreciate any input on this draft article on a recently retired English Heritage/Historic England inspector who helped preserve and maintain heritage buildings in the SW, including Cornwall. For example, St Odulph's Church in Pillaton - he inspected after serious storm damage in 2013 and supervised the extensive repairs. Any help (and images!) would be much appreciated - many thanks in advance. CourtauldGill (talk) 11:08, 7 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

PD Scilly Isles postcards: C. J. King

While researching ornithological photographers, I came across C.J. King, who also worked commercially and reputedly published the first postcards of the Scilly Isles. He died in 1939, so his works are out of copyright. I've uploaded a few of his pictures on Commons, but others can be found on eBay and the like.

Parishes project

I have started a project for missing civil parishes at User:Crouch, Swale/Missing parishes. The missing parishes in Cornwall are:

And these exists as a redirect only but should probably have separate articles:

A total of 8, see User:Crouch, Swale/Missing parishes (1)#Cornwall. Crouch, Swale (talk) 20:26, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
