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?!

[edit] Merge

I've combined all 3 articles, Gig racing, Gig rowing into this article, Cornish pilot gig. I thought this was neccessary as there was a lot of overlap, I've also added links and photos to the page. Any comments on these changes? --Cyr 09:54, 22 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] External links

As the external links section is getting rather large. It may be an idea to sub divide it into geographical locations. However there are approixmately 80 gig clubs world wide so if every club had a website that would mean 80 external links. Some people might say that Wikipedia is not a directory. Let me know what you think via this discussion page. --Benjaminevans82 18:09, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
