WikiProject Scouting Welcome to the Scouting WikiProject on the English Wikipedia. We are a group dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to Scouting and Guiding. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them on our discussion page. If you would like to join us, please add your name to the list of project members! Goals [edit] To create the foremost reliable and accurate free-content encyclopedia of Scouting and Guiding in the English language. To improve coverage of Scouting and Guiding by creating, expanding, and maintaining articles that describe all of its aspects. To provide guidelines and recommendations for such articles, and to serve as the central point of discussion for issues related to Scouting and Guiding in Wikipedia. Scope [edit] The project generally considers any article related to Scouting or Guiding to be within its scope. How you can helpWikipedia:WikiProject Scouting# [edit] If you would like to participate, add yourself to the members section of this page. You can help out by editing a Scouting or Guiding-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 or Guiding-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 or Guiding-related article without our infobox or portal tag, please place our portal tag, {{Scoutingportal}}, 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 or Guiding-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. Coordinators [edit] The project coordinators are generally responsible for maintaining all of the procedural and administrative aspects of the project, and serve as the designated points-of-contact for procedural issues. They are not, however, endowed with any special executive powers, nor with any authority over article content or editor conduct. Lead coordinator: evrik Article improvement: Bduke - this does not mean that I am going to improve articles all on my own, but I am here to advise editors, after many years of editing WP, if needed, on improving articles. Just ask me on my talk page.
