[edit] Cleanup
It is good to see a lot of participation from Yarmouth! However, it is important that what is written is academic, encyclopedic and neutral. Right now, there are sections, especially the description at the end of history of the centre of the town, and the tourism section, that read like advertising or tourism material. To make this an A+ article, read Wikipedia:How_to_write_a_great_article and lets tidy this article up! Thanks WayeMason 10:35, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
Well WAYE I live in Yarmouth and what I have written is factual if you would like to take me on fact for fact go for it. Regards Rod Hemeon
Here is on example - Heritage and genealogical tourism is being developed in the Town, museums, art galleries and historic bed and breakfasts are attracting tourists of all ages and especially the retiring baby-boomers. The Firefighters' Museum is a hit with young and old. is a great example of something that is not written in the tone of an encyclopedia. It reads like advertising.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Cjlsthewave.jpg
Image:Cjlsthewave.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
