This needs updating and I am prepared to have a go at doing that. However, I can not see where the original code is kept or indeed whether there is an original code. --[[User:Bduke|Bduke]] ([[User talk:Bduke|talk]]) 07:50, 28 April 2022 (UTC)

Maybe just a post for here but [[Brownsea Island Scout camp]] is eyed for scrutiny regarding it FA status. I thought about working on it and thought about buying the few books on it but it looks like they are all out of print. Does anybody know a way to get any of them? <b style="color: #0000cc;">''North8000''</b> ([[User talk:North8000#top|talk]]) 19:25, 30 June 2023 (UTC)
:{{ping|North8000}} Please list the books. --[[User:evrik|evrik]]&nbsp;<sup>([[User talk:evrik|talk]])</sup> 20:34, 30 June 2023 (UTC)

::I was thinking about a general inquiry regarding any books regarding Scouting at Brownsea. Previously I found 2 promising looking books. Now so far I just found one: The Boys on the Island: A Brownsea Adventure Paperback by Luis Bernardo Pérez (Author), Glenn Gardner (Translator) I'd be happy to buy any available books at book type prices but not at collector item type prices. <b style="color: #0000cc;">''North8000''</b> ([[User talk:North8000#top|talk]]) 21:05, 30 June 2023 (UTC)

WikiProject iconScouting Project‑class
WikiProject iconWikipedia:WikiProject Scouting is part of the Scouting WikiProject, an effort to build a comprehensive and detailed guide to Scouting and Guiding on the Wikipedia. This includes but is not limited to boy and girl organizations, WAGGGS and WOSM organizations as well as those not so affiliated, country and region-specific topics, and anything else related to Scouting. If you would like to participate, you can edit the article attached to this page, or visit the project page, where you can join the project and/or contribute to the discussion.
ProjectThis page does not require a rating on Wikipedia's content assessment scale.

Article Content, remarks
Scouting Describes the movement of Scouting: history (founding, growth), activities one does in Scouting, organization, should cover both male & mixed sections (Scouts and Cubs) and female only (Girl Guides and Brownies), younger/older sections, international
Scout Movement Redirect to Scouting
Scout (Scout Movement) About the members, boys or girls aged 11-17 years, activities they do in Scouting, the Scout section, Troop/Patrol, Scout Law, Motto, Uniform. Not about history, not about the organization or movement.
Scout Remains disambiguation page
Girl Guide and Girl Scout About the members of Girl Guiding (Girl Scouting in the USA and some other countries)
Girl Guide, Girl Scout Redirect to GG&GS (term used in a handful of countries with guiding organizations, including the United States)
Cub Scout, Brownie (Girl Guides) About the groups for those in age ranges immediately below those in the flagship scouting age groups.
Robert Baden-Powell, 1st Baron Baden-Powell About the person Baden-Powell, and his personal history. Not about the Scout movement other than his input/influence. Lots of redirects here, btw.
Boy Scouts, Girl Guides, etc General summary pages that have see also links to other Scouting pages. Used to avoid to lead users to more indepth articles, no longer disambiguation pages due to all the confusion of different naming conventions. All other plurals redirect to the singular per Wikipedia standard, not to Scouting or a separate organization oriented article
WOSM, WAGGGS Articles about the current international organization. Not about the Scouting movement, history pertaining to the organization only.
