Low

This article has been rated as Low-importance on the project's importance scale.

See drop-down box for suggested article edit guidelines:

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!
Articles on settlements in Cornwall should be written using the standard set of headings approved by the UK geography WikiProject's guideline How to write about settlements.
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 nationalism, etc) and should not overflow into other articles.
Most of all have fun editing - that's the reason we all do this, right?!

Notability tag

In creating this article (a stub) I have offered 3 external links and 5 references how many more should be added to meet notability? --Talskiddy (talk) 20:02, 14 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It's not really about references (you've done well there), it's about whether the person is notable; the guidelines are at Wikipedia:Notability (people). This is an unusual subject for an article, and I think it's borderline whether it meets the guidelines. However, it is well-written and well-referenced. Boleyn (talk) 20:19, 14 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've looked into this further, and I think it does, just about, meet the guidelines:

1. The person has received a notable award or honor, or has been often nominated for one. 2. The person has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in his or her specific field so I've removed the tag. Boleyn3 (talk) 20:30, 14 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks :) --Talskiddy (talk) 21:44, 14 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
