If you would like to participate, you can edit the article attached to this page, or visit the project member page, where you can join the project and/or contribute to the discussion.CornwallWikipedia:WikiProject CornwallTemplate:WikiProject CornwallCornwall-related articles
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?!

The IE word 'kal' is given the article as meaning 'to hide', whereas I had always understood it to mean 'to protect' as in eu-calypt (Gk: truly protected). Thus, if so, the original root for the word 'Celt' may mean to guard; ie a powerful protector.
"Genetic evidence"
The sentence "Historically many scholars postulated that there was genetic evidence of a common origin of the European Atlantic populations i.e.: Orkney Islands, Scottish, Irish, British, Bretons, and Iberians (Basques, Galicians).[51]" is complete nonsense. This is ONE source, with VERY questionable sourcing (eupedia). Further, it goes without saying that Celts should share some genes (here the HLA system).HJHolm (talk) 07:48, 17 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
New article in Nature:Large-scale migration into Britain during the Middle to Late Bronze Age
"Present-day people from England and Wales harbour more ancestry derived from Early European Farmers (EEF) than people of the Early Bronze Age1. To understand this, we generated genome-wide data from 793 individuals, increasing data from the Middle to Late Bronze and Iron Age in Britain by 12-fold, and Western and Central Europe by 3.5-fold. Between 1000 and 875 BC, EEF ancestry increased in southern Britain (England and Wales) but not northern Britain (Scotland) due to incorporation of migrants who arrived at this time and over previous centuries, and who were genetically most similar to ancient individuals from France. These migrants contributed about half the ancestry of Iron Age people of England and Wales, thereby creating a plausible vector for the spread of early Celtic languages into Britain. These patterns are part of a broader trend of EEF ancestry becoming more similar across central and western Europe in the Middle to Late Bronze Age, coincident with archaeological evidence of intensified cultural exchange2–6. There was comparatively less gene flow from continental Europe during the Iron Age"[1]Doug Wellertalk15:09, 27 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hard to edit
I found that this article, or at least its lead section, has citations that include a very large amount of Wikicode, making these parts of the article hard to edit because you have to wade thru so much visual clutter.--Solomonfromfinland (talk) 08:46, 18 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The term “HLA” refers to a phenom, and WP article, important to genetics and paleogenetics. The unlinked usage should be remedied,by someone with the access that I lack (at least until any sPaddy’sDay-related protection lapses). (Relatively few users will pick up on the TLA, W/o the appropriate, but protection-inhibited, link.) TNX, & Uhhh… “Gael Erin!”. (snicker) 173.162.211.85 (talk) 15:20, 17 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
