You can help out by editing a Scouting-related article, improving our current collaboration of the week (at right), helping to complete a task on our to-do list, or contributing to the discussion on one of our related talk pages. If you would like some suggestions, just ask on the talk page. If you find a Scouting-related article without our template, please place our template {{ScoutingWikiProject}} at the top of the talk page. You can also add this to the talk page of images, categories, and templates. If you find a Scouting-related article without our portal tag, please place our portal tag, {{portal|Scouting|Scout logo2.svg}}, in the "See also" section of the article. This will advertise our portal and make it easy to navigate to. If you find a Scouting-related stub article that has not yet been marked as a stub, add {{Scout-stub}} to the bottom of the article. It will automatically be included in the Scouting stubs category, where you can find plenty of stub articles to expand if you are itching to do something. Put a project-related userbox on your user page, especially the project member userbox. Related Wikiportals Visit our featured portal at Portal:Scouting. It was created on Jan 28, 2006.
