This article has been rated as Low-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?!

Rewrite complete(ish)

Okay, finished the big edit thing. The "external links" is mostly profiles by other sites, but I don't know what else would go there. It includes the ToffeeWeb article; I figured it was only fair ;-)

I reckon it summarises his career fairly well, but there's barely any bio information. I'm also not sure about the picture; I don't know if it perfectly qualifies under fair use as a "promotional photo". I mean, it is a promo photo, but it's probably not posed (looks like an in-game photo with background cropped out). If that pic isn't acceptable, there's a photo here and another here, both of which almost certainly qualify. --MarkGallagher 19:51, 11 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Are there any other Cornishmen with England caps? I'm fairly sure Martyn's alone.

Ray Bowden for one. --Jameboy (talk) 11:28, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Did he win anything?

Did Martyn ever win anything of importance? The lead paragraph could use a summary of titles to conclude the sentence "He most prominently played seven seasons each for Crystal Palace and Leeds United" - ", winning the 19xx something with someone". Poulsen 11:56, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
