Talk:Telegraph, Isles of Scilly

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The section on 'History of telegraph communication to Scilly' is interesting, but does not belong here! The article states the telegraph cable came to "Deep Point, beneath the high lands of Normandy on St Mary’s". Deep point and Normandy are nowhere near Telegraph, but on the east side of the island. 'Telegraph' is named after the earlier semaphore telegraph, not the later electric telegraph. 'History of telegraph communication to Scilly' should be transferred to a new, separate, article (perhaps titled 'Telegraph communication to the Isles of Scilly'). The remaining content in 'Telegraph, Isles of Scilly' could simply be incorporated into the main article on St Mary's, Isles of Scilly. Topo122 (talk) 14:20, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
