I will first put draft information here, and three months later (given the low traffic of the talk page) insert it. Oh, and permission will need to be sought to upload the pictures under an open license, since the images are owned by the organisation. -- 22: 251: 535:
I have uploaded the correct emblem to this page. The incorrect version previously displayed caused mass confusion within the organisation as it was the first version Google returned. The official emblem may be freely used and distributed but it must conform to the corporate identity document created

The Voortrekkers has never been part of the Scouts, although the idea for the organisation originated because of them. The Voortrekkers is also a place where the Afrikaner youth of today can freely express their views and experience a wide variety of things. It is a place where you can feel safe.

What about "Voortrekker group upset about 'pink' event 2009-08-18 Independent online (SA) A Voortrekker youth movement has voiced strong objection to a gay music festival held at the Voortrekker Monument the past weekend. The Pretoria Verkenners Jeug (PVJ) said in a statement "the bastion of

Sadly, many people are uninformed about Die Voortrekkers, believing falsely it has something to do with politics. Die Voortrekkers is a modern Afrikaans and culture movement with POSITIVE CITIZENSHIP as one of its main values. It is also a concern to Die Voortrekkers about other politically
179: 355:
I don't know how this would fit in with Knowledge (XXG) rules, but the organization is called (and registered as) Die Voortrekkers. The definite article 'The' is part of the name of the organisation. Should we mention this somewhere or change the name of the article?
286: 316:
I'll leave it up to others to write a discussion of the Afrikaner nationalist political role played by the Voortrekkers. Their history is controversial, but since they are still in existence it's unfair to judge them entirely based on that.
309:
So far, most or all the contributors to this page have been Scouts, not Voortrekkers. Previously most of the text was based on comparing them to Scouts, but this doesn't seem a fair reflection on them as a separate organisation.
422:
The reference above to the "Pretoria Verkenners Jeug" article does not belong in an article about Die Voortrekkers, as that organisation ("Pretoria Verkenners Jeug") is not part of or in any way affiliated to Die Voortrekkers.

I'll update the article and link to the flag on the Flag of Natalia Republic as it is already uploaded. If anyone thinks I should reupload the image with an updated name, let me know and I'll do it.

631: 636: 195: 616: 106: 333:, the Voortrekkers really don't consider themselves Scouts in any way, shape or form. I should know, as I actually used to be one (long, long ago). 313:
Based on this, I've removed the article from the Scouting categories and also removed some (but not all) of the Scout references in the article.
