See drop-down box for suggested article edit guidelines: Shortcut: WP:Cornwall Articles are written using a standard set of headings (see suggestions for article structure here). This is to maintain consistency between Cornwall articles and to improve the quality of entries through a constant style of writing. These headings are, however, plastic and in a state of flux and although we welcome suggestions or improvements, we would appreciate discussion before any major changes to the layout yourself. 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! 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 self-government movement, etc) and should not overflow into other articles. Most of all have fun editing - that's the reason we all do this, right?!

No idea why this has been tagged - Large festival attended by hundreds of people - Notable example of Cornish Culture being revived and reinterpreted - Far less notable festivals have articles etc Reedgunner 11:25, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

This is not a speedy, well known festival with coverage from BBC. Notability may be an issue (680 unique Ghits) but speedy is not appropriate. --manchesterstudent 11:26, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Wholly inappropriate tagging, notable example of development of Cornish culture into modern times. DuncanHill 12:08, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] References

IMO, the BBC link would be a reference and Enjoy England an external link and not vice versa. --Tikiwont 12:55, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

I have used both as inline references Fosnez 13:29, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

I see, but not how Enjoy England would qualify as reliable source. --Tikiwont 13:36, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Enjoy England is the domestic marketing arm of VisitBritain[1], which is part[2] of the Department for Culture, Media and Sport - Fosnez 13:46, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

As you say, it is a marketing arm and the link tells me that Bolster day is a 'must see'. --Tikiwont 14:01, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

My citation was for the "Throughout the year St Agnes has a busy programme of events such as Bolster Day" to clarify that this is a actually an event. The marketing chaff can be weeded out, I was more concerned with using attributable facts out of the article. Fosnez 14:12, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Sorry, I didn't relise that EnjoyEngland wasn't in the external link section - I have added it there as well now. Fosnez 14:16, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
