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?!

Can't you see it is labelled "Stub"? Vernon White ^{. . . Talk} 23:39, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

Apologies for flare. Hilary Coleman has been deeply influential in Cornish music and folk music for many years. Her election as a Bard of the Gorseth is well-earned. Dalla's music appeals to all types and ages of people. It is accessible and danceable but also rhythmically and harmonically complex.

In 100 years time, it is likely that someone will want to know about Dalla and the Cornish Music/Cultural scene. That's my POV. Vernon White ^{. . . Talk} 23:49, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

Someone tried to delete Dalla and met with reasoned opposition.

[edit] British or Cornish=

Some unregistered editors wish to describe the subject of this article as "British" rather than "Cornish". Why? Vernon White ^{. . . Talk} 18:32, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

Simple ... she is British! Should you think reference be made to Cornwall then this should ALSO be included. Please remember that readers outside the UK, who make up the bulk of Wikipedia, (i) will not know the finer points of British regions, (ii) want to know facts! And that include her being British. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.153.171.112 (talk) 15:54, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
