High

This article has been rated as High-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?!

The title of this article does not describe the content. I presume nearly every language has some sort of 'standard written form'?— Preceding unsigned comment added by Talskiddy (talk • contribs) 21:35, 31 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

I agree that the title of this article is ambiguous. -- Evertype·✆ 10:26, 1 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

You make a good point Talskiddy, I only moved it becauser there aren't any other Standard Written Forms on Wikipedia, and a Google search gave the Cornish SWF as both the primary usage and the only orthography actually called "Standard Written Form". But if the consensus is to make the title clearer then of course I would support a move. --Joowwww (talk) 12:34, 1 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Who's going to move it then? -- Evertype·✆ 17:23, 4 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Good question, would "Standard Written Form (Cornish)" be an acceptable title? Oskar Suth (talk) 10:00, 4 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

There's no need to disambiguate as there's no article it can be confused with, and apparently no potential article either. DuncanHill (talk) 11:32, 4 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

Why is the IPA in italics?

Latest comment: 4 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Every other time I've seen the article the IPA forms are given in normal, upright position, but lately (I don't know if it's a change in source code or what not) the IPA forms are now rendered as italics (at least in Chrome). Is there any way this can be fixed? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 100.10.82.67 (talk) 13:43, 26 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Fixed. Thanks for pointing it out. Llusiduonbach (talk) 22:21, 10 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
