Scope
The project generally considers any article related to Scouting to be within its scope.

Announcements and open tasks

Note: New items go on TOP

  1. William Hanna has been listed at FAC, pls help improve it.
  2. List of recipients of the Bronze Wolf Award nom for dyk at Rlevse's suggestion, need help with citations. "Unfortunately, lists of no matter what length still need to have 1500 characters of prose, which this doesn't." What can we add that isn't a straight copy of Bronze Wolf? This was removed from dyk, no help in expanding opening paragraph. Chris (クリス • フィッチ) (talk) 02:57, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

How you can help

If you would like to participate, add yourself to the members section of this page.

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.
