- Overview
The Doom Bar is a bank of sand in the Camel Estuary in Cornwall. I've spent a fair amount of time working on the article, trying to get it up to featured status. One of the books I checked when I first wrote the article though gives some detailed information about the ships that were wrecked there, but I'm having difficulty getting hold of that book.
- Budget
Brain French: Wrecks and Rescues Around Padstow's Doom Bar - £23 on Amazon
- Timeline
I believe the main article should be put in to the Featured Article process within three months. A list article listing the wrecks on the bar should be available within the following 6 months, and hopefully submitted to the Featured List Criteria by the end of the year
- Expected outcomes
- w:en:Doom Bar should be able to get to Featured Article status
- w:en:List of wrecks on the Doom Bar should be created and reach Featured List status.
