[edit] Too much BSA-perspective?
I have a problem with this page. Rover Scouts is a world-wide program, yet this article is written from a BSA-perspective. This article should be about the general world use of Rover Scouts, and the USA use of Rovers be in either a subsection of this article or in a separate article clairly marked as such. 144.189.40.222 16:54, 5 January 2006 (UTC)emb021
- I completely agree. It also says far too little about Rover Scouting in the UK - the battle to restrict the upper age down to 25 and finally the battle to get rid of Rover Scouting in the UK. It no longer exists there but does in many Commonwealth countries. I'm too out of touch to fix anything. Bduke 20:55, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Non-WOSM Rovers
199.123.79.97 has just added stuff about non WOSM Rovers who keep to B.P.s view of no upper age limit. Fine, but could those sets of initials be spelt out so we know what they are and if possible wikified if there is material on Wikipedia about them? I put back stuff about the upper age in the UK as this did not alter until the Chief Scouts Advance party recommendations in 1968, well after B.P.s death. Bduke 23:50, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
- I just corrected WIFS to WFIS and that link works. What is RESA? What is RSA? The link to the latter is incorrect? --Bduke 03:12, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
- OK. Found RESA. I think RSA should be PSA - they have Rovers. I have put the full names in for the links. --Bduke 03:22, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Rover Scout Crew
I have just removed the link [[ ]] from "Rover Scout Crew" - it did not point anywhere, and I have explained more about a Crew. I have done this because I do not think that we need to have a separate article called "Rover Scout Crew". Anything needed can go into this article. --Bduke 05:56, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
- I didn't realise (somehow) that Crew was already defined in the article, thanks! --Naha|(talk) 06:08, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
- It was'nt. I added the stuff after the words "Rover Scout Crew" in the first para. --Bduke 06:24, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Attention tag
For B-class, expand the lead and separate refs into their own section out of the external links. Rlevse 00:56, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
