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?!

Carn Brea, St Just → Chapel Carn Brea – The correct name for this hill is Chapel Carn Brea. This article was redirected on 4 September 2013 by User:Bermicourt from Chapel Carn Brea to → Carn Brea, St Just, possibly because the Ordnance Survey refer to it as Carn Brea. It is not unusual for the Ordnance Survey to get Cornish place names wrong, usually by mis-spelling or anglicizing. I've always known the place as Chapel Carn Brea.

Please see An Index to the Historical Place Names of Cornwall: Vol 1 - A to K.
Peter Pool (1973) The Place-names of West Penwith. gives earlier examples from 1700 and 1748 Chapel Carn Brey; circa 1740 Chapel Karn Breh. Jowaninpensans (talk) 12:19, 4 January 2015 (UTC) The hill is still known as Chapel Carn Brea.[reply]
There is a plaque on the hill – see photo in article.
