See drop-down box for suggested article edit guidelines:
|
- 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?!

[edit] Cubert
I'm not sure this is correct.
'The village is named after the Welsh Missionary St Cubert who, as a companion of St Carantock, brought the Christian Faith to this part of Cornwall, and to whom the Church is dedicated. Unlike his companion St Carantock who travelled on to Brittany, St Cubert returned to Wales becoming Abbot of his Monastery and, according to the Welsh Chronicles, dying in 775 A.D'
I can not find much info on St Cubert , but if he did travel with St Carantock the date of cubert's death can not be right - Carantock was born in 470 AD —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Nedlo (talk • contribs) 15:07, August 20, 2007 (UTC).
- My Dictionary of English Placenames says Cubert is from St Cuthbert, but I think that St Cubert may be a variant of Cybi. DuncanHill (talk) 17:19, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
