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?!

A fact from Promontory forts of Cornwall appeared on Wikipedia's
Main Page in the Did you know column on 21 December 2012 (
check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that defence may not have been the primary function of
Cornwall's cliff castles?
I have removed the Orphan tag an editor put on this article. Under "What links here", this article is linked to valid other Wikipedia articles. It is not an orphan.

To do
The following cliff castles need to be put on the main page:
Guys, what do "univallate" and "multivallate" mean? These terms may be well known to castle buffs, but to us mere mortals, they're gobbledegook. Even a Wiki-search only turned up other examples. --

Useful scholarly summary of contemporary scholarship, with some particulars, in Henrietta Quinnell, "Cornwall during the Iron Age and
the Roman Period", Cornish Archaeology, 25, 1986.

Not as up-to-date as some of this article's sources, but more scholarly than some, and gives full citations. Interesting and relevant disagreement on the merely occasional or seasonal occupation of cliff castles. Or some of them, at any rate. Obviously, doesn't include most recent results of most recent digs.
