Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Cornwall Your edits appear to constitute vandalism. The information you provide is incorrect as stated by Lord Elwyn Jones in 1977. Cornwall is in fact a Duchy not a county and has a living Duke also known as Charles,_Prince_of_Wales. You will also find that Queen Elizabeth I stated that she did not rule Cornwall and there has been no legal evidence since then to suggest this has changed. Please do check the most up to date facts before changing the article again in the future.
 * The fact is, Cornwall is administrated as a county of England - (note the term "Administrated" - I am in no way implying the Cornish are English or their culture) and this cannot be disputed. We represent the facts and current situation accordingly. --Τασουλα (talk) 08:49, 29 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Seconded. Wikipedia is meant to represent accurately mainstream information about things and places, as noted in reliable sources. It is not in dispute among most people or serious reputable sources that Cornwall is a county of England. That some people might wish it not to be is another matter entirely. If you can find reliable sources that confirm that Lord Elwyn Jones said it is not a county of England, or that Queen Elizabeth said she did not rule Cornwall - and that this still holds for her successors - please do so and we can then all look at what weight to give those facts, especially given that they seem to contradict what everything else says about Cornwall. Please note as well that Wikipedia articles are not meant to be subject to back-and-forth edit wars that disrupt stable versions of pages or used as battlegrounds to "prove" obscure political points. If you're new here, welcome and please have a look at this page and some of the links from it. If you're not, you'll already know all that - and that accounts here that breach the rules will end up being blocked.  N-HH   talk / edits  10:58, 29 July 2012 (UTC)

I will pull out the legal paper work that proves both previous quotes which is surely a more reliable source of information than any book you may have read? Cornwall is administrated as a Duchy which is why Cornwall for so many years has had to pay a higher tax rate to England and why Prince Charles takes a wage from Cornwall. Cornwall is also recognised by Europe and England has been called to the European courts to discuss their relationship with Cornwall and treatment over the years. Where do you source your information from? This can be the source of many problems, for example if you ask China what Tibet is many official sources will claim it to be an area of China, if you ask Tibet or any area outside of China many will say it is a country occupied by China. Yet all sources can be viewed as an official and there for both right according to the rules here. As you seem concerned about the back and forth how about doing something similar to the Tibet page "is a plateau region in Asia" and describe Cornwall as a region of the United Kingdom. This is true no matter if Cornwall is seen as a Duchy or a county. Or perhaps in the opening area mention that their is currently a legal debate going on to determined Cornwall legal status. I'm pretty sure most people would be happy with this if both sides of the debate were given equal respect. Wikipedia is meant to be a source of factual information not popular opinion otherwise Big Ben would be the name of the clock tower not the bell as most people believe that.
 * None of which changes the fact Cornwall is administrated as a county of England. The Duchy does not change this. The article on Tibet covers the entire region of Tibet, not just the area administrated by the PRC, the Tibet Autonomous Region. I think you will find the article on Cornwall reflects the situation clearly and accurately. And please do not come out with flights-of-fantasy about a so-called "English occupation" or "Oppression". Such nonsense. --Τασουλα (talk) 16:40, 29 July 2012 (UTC)
 * The idea that identifying Cornwall as a county is some kind of mistake, on a par with confusing the tower with the bell, or the idea that the debate about Cornwall's actual (as opposed to desired-by-some) constitutional/administrative status is akin to the debate around Tibet or that there is some great, widely accepted and unresolved legal controversy about it are both very silly ones, if you don't mind my saying so. You will also note that I did not simply refer to what a man in a pub might (mistakenly) think, but talked about "serious", "reputable" and "reliable" sources. In any event, if you have substantive suggestions for the page, you should probably use the talk page there (and sign your posts with four tildes btw, to generate a signature and time-stamp). Finally, there is plenty of stuff on Wikipedia about these kind of Cornish issues, both in that Cornwall page itself and in other entries, eg Constitutional status of Cornwall. This place is, in fact, remarkably indulgent of fringe views and conspiracy theories.  N-HH   talk / edits  16:50, 29 July 2012 (UTC)

If fact you are yet to show any evidence to support you argument at all. I am quite bored of your uneducated nonsense to be honest.
 * Then the feeling is mutual. Cornwall is administrated as a part of England. End of story. And this is your final warning for your disruptive edits on the Cornwall article - once more and you will be blocked. --Τασουλα (talk) 12:29, 30 July 2012 (UTC)
