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?!

Shrinkage of island[edit]

Editors may wish to use material from this report.

An island in Chesapeake Bay is disappearing — and so is a British dialect and a piece of history—Public Radio International (July 20, 2014)

Cornish roots[edit]

There is no mention of the island's Cornish roots, and the section on linguistics wanders around other British dialects. Yet there is a Cornish-American category link. But most telling is the fact that the Cornish flag is in the city's flag's canton! - Keith D. Tyler ¶ 06:40, 20 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
