There is already a visitors' charter

Indeed, And there are at least two others. Maybe there is a case for re-launching that one, rejigging and shortening it a bit, incorporating the best bits of the others, getting loads more webmasters to sign it and retitling it "The Megalithic Webmasters Charter for Visiting and Curating Ancient Sites"?

Isn't this all just a little bit too much navel gazing? Most of the folk I meet at sites don't use internet forums. Quite frankly you can produce all the charters and badges you like, I doubt it'll make one ha'ppeth worth of diference in the real world

To quote the lovely Scousemaiden

"Silbury Hill is being restored in the hope of ensuring it lasts another 4000 years. Ok it may not be being done to everyones exact specifications or standards but it is a positive move and done with the best of intentions.
If you want to "save" somewhere from total destruction do something about Tara before the Irish government bulldoze it and it vanishes forever."

The last Tara update on the Heritage Action website was March 2005
