Talk:Youth organizations in the United States

This is on your website, and it is incorrect, and we need it to be changed. The reason we do not consider ourselves a "Secular" scouting organization is because we welcome ALL people, not just the non-religious. I don't really care WHAT that article says; just because someone posted an article about us on some 3rd-party website does not mean that they somehow know more about our program than WE do. Stating an organization is secular gives the incorrect impression that religion does not enter into it at all, and that's not the case. We actually give our Scouts the choice to use the word "God" in their Scout Promise if they so wish. It's a personal thing that we let them decide to include or not include (substituting "my conscience" for "God" or using the Outlander's Promise). Also, the BPSA in the United States formed in 2006, not 2002. We are NOT in any way connected with the Baden-Powell Scouts' Association of the UK, so there is no conflict of interest for DiverScout to edit this article about us. He is simply not a member of the BPSA US. Does that make sense? Hope so! I hope to get this resolved quickly. Again, the information on this article is incorrect and we may need to escalate this issue if it is not taken care of soon. Thank you.

dictionary defines "secular" as "denoting attitudes, activities, or other things that have no religious or spiritual basis." In either case, the intent/implication seems to suggest that "secular" means "separate from religion." Based on this, I don't think the term "secular" correctly applies to the BPSA. Our intent is to welcome all--not to imply that we have set ourselves apart from all things religious. In the BPSA, we have members who are deeply religious, including practicing Catholics, Jews, and a number of Christians, as well as at least one Pagan. And, on the other end of the scale, we have agnostic and atheist members, too. It would be more correct, although wordier, to say the BPSA is accepting of all religious beliefs and practices as well as those people who express no religious beliefs or practices. I Therefore, using the word "secular" absolutely could scare off some people who might otherwise benefit from the BPSA's program.

have not figure it out, the law is (or has been) biased against all non-BSA scouting groups as it has in the UK (see the BBS&GSA). If you have not figured it out, the Scouting WP Project and yourself in adopting the BSA's MOS is move that biases the project against other scouting groups. Since they have those advantage they end up being more cover by the news thus more notable then these groups. So, WP builds in that unnotability about the lesser group whether scout or scout-like organizations which this article attempt to rectify. Heck, I guess I should have just let each and every one of the article be deleted via the AfD process instead this attempt (the article) to at least have something about them here at WP.

883:←Secular means "1.Not specifically religious." Thus since you do take members of any religion or no religion there for you are secular. Really, kopper, you just claimed that you are affiliated with Baden-Powell Scouts' Association as that is what you want in the lead. "I don't really care WHAT that article says; just because someone posted an article about us on some 3rd-party website does not mean that they somehow know more about our program than WE do." Sorry, but that are the rules on WP. DiverScout, I suggest that you take your own advice since Kopper just point out TWICE now that you WHERE WRONG. So you need to go away and stop your attacks, flaming and goading me. 1690:

owns the newspaper which makes it self-publishing also); his credentials on the subject seem scant he even admits to have never been involved in Scouting and he definitely wants to push Christian organizations (AWANA and Christian Brigade). Second and more importantly the title is not neutral in regards to the organizations covered; it judges other youth organizations in relation to Scouting which is not fair to organizations that don't see themselves as part of the Scouting movement and who share only a surface resemblance to Scouting (having a pinewood derby clone is not sufficient). --

communist countries), they are all independent. I deleted "small," as that is not defined nor documented. An organization with over 1 million participants is not really small. Also, some of these may have clubs in countries other than the USA. For NPOV, an article like this should just list the Boy Scouts with the others, not indicate that there are the Boy Scouts, then everything else. All, including the "Boy Scouts" should be called "scout-like," if any are. The term scout is existed before the Boy Scouts, as for men who scouted for the army vs. Indians. (

102: 81: 112: 1393:? In addition the article almost completely ignores the most Scouting like organizations of all (BSA, GSUSA, Trail Life, American Heritage ) and points to separate wikipedia articles for them but gives a brief synopsis on AWANA which is many times bigger than Trail Life and American Heritage put together yet does not compare itself to scouting at all in their web site (it does seem to concentrate on religious study to the exclusion of most other things which doesn't strike me as notably scout-like ). -- 631:

nothing about the BPSA being "secular". That is a misleading and incorrect statement. Saying that we are "secular" implies that we are an atheist organization, which is not true. We allow religious people just as we allow nonreligious people to join. It also says that we are "a branch of the Baden-Powell Scouts' Association in the UK," which is also completely false. We are *affiliated* with them, yes, but we are not a branch. We are completely independent.

non-discrimination policy for his own Cub Scout pack. In the BPSA, David was responsible for adapting the programs of the other Baden-Powell Scouting associations in introducing youth sections to the BPSA's program. In 2009, Atchley became commissioner. By 2011, the association had only a handful of units. BPSA reincorporated in 2012, became an official 501©(3) nonprofit in 2013, and has since grown to include more than 45 chartered Scout groups today.

state. The BSA charter gave them a super-trademark status over Scout and Scouting and any other scouting term. They are also granted the right to copy US military uniform and insignias (although the BSA has done other wise) and were until recently granted access to military bases and land particularly for the tri-annual Jamboree. The US President is the honorary president of the BSA (although at last check Obama hasn't 'take up' the position).

rewrite of the info. Also, I don't think it's asking too much to simply refer to our association in the manner in which I asked in my opening paragraph above. It really is a better description of us, and can still be sourced from the same article. And, since this is OUR association we are talking about here, this is what we want, and how we want our association portrayed on your website. Does that make sense?

Adding the wood car racing was one of the last things I did before moving it into article space. Those races are a main activities (and includes woodworking) of "junior scouting" like Cub Scouting, so are a clue to those programs. 555:: "He eventually learned about the Baden-Powell Service Association, which formed in the United States in 2006 but had only an adult component." Furthering looking into the Texas State website was about P-B Scouting Assoc. (not P-B Service Assoc.) sale tax exempt and not its incorporation. They could be separate organizations.

then note that local organizations may not reach the notability baseline for Knowledge).

The now-merged article had issues in relation to international scope, but the organization is clearly not US-only and is questionable in being considered Scout-like. The former issue means that this redirect is not appropriate for an encyclopedia and also should be reversed.

Apologies for reverting before checking in talk. I wouldn't say an intentional vandal but rather someone who has a particular view who hasn't managed to convince other people of his view's rightness and so get a consensus (I'm not even sure he has even explained his view , and other?]). Instead the

On a case-by-case basis we need to look at which of the listed organizations are actually "Scout-like" and what specific, categorical criteria we are applying. To me the label Scout-like should only be applied to organizations that consider themselves a direct Scouting alternative organization, with

Don't worry, editors can edit in specialist subject areas - otherwise Knowledge would be even more of a joke than it already often is. Sadly there are editors who are not interested in trying to get accurate and complete information on this site, instead using it for attempts to flame, spam and goad

ERP removed them from the article's body under the guise that if they had an article (notable or not) they should not have a section here, while BSA & GS/USA were given a section when they have a clearly notable status and could just be link from the lead section like Trail Life USA and American

I've done a preliminary check of the list and removed several for being local (and fixed the cat in the original articles). I note that several of the organizations no longer exist (and a few of them in part because it turned out the CIA was a major source of funds, definitely a history there); I'm

So combo list article and regular article? There are a lot of youth groups especially if we include youth wings of more age inclusive organizations; it is one reason for concentrating on the types and the most important but clearly stating that many more exist and pointing to the category (and even

One thing I found was especially interesting (read: FALSE) is how the very first 3rd-party link used on this article for our association that is the reference for "...is a secular inclusive coed traditional Scout organization..." doesn't say that at all! If you click the link to the article, it says

For your second point, judgement must be made at some point, however it is the journalist, not the Wikipedian place to make that judgement in regards to the organizations covered. Some organziation have recreated scouting independent of scouting, just like the CSB and PC did. The journalist didn't

Hey guys, I'm not sure who is who or what editors allowed to do what or anything, nor do I wish to get involved with some sort of obvious personal feud that you guys apparently have going on here. I simply wish to, once again, correct misinformation about our association that appears on this page.

Not in the English language it is not. A Scout organization is a Scout organiszation. A Scout-like organization is one that is a bit like a Scout organization by is not one. This page is looking to me like a POV attempt to marginalize all non-Boy Scouts of America associations. The title needs

Not a source that can be used for the article, but I made a direct query to the UK Royal Ranger's HQ (another international organization dropped onto this US-only page) about whether they considered themselves to have anything to do with the Scout Movement. The reply stated that they do not, and

Gee, DiverScout, that is interesting that you consider it a train wreck when you added information that Kopp would consider FALSE that the current B-PSA (US) was incorporated in 2002 and all that stuff I reverse out of the article that had to do with the other B-PSA that exist in the US. WOW, now

476:

IMHO: I agree that the title of the article is misleading and violated NPOV, as it seems to indicate that first (in significance) there are the Boy Scouts, then the rest which are independent of the Boy Scouts. Except for government sponsored groups (like Hitler Youth, & communist scouts in

The Oxford English Dictionary (3rd Ed) defines "secular" as "belonging to the world and its affairs as distinguished from the church and religion; civil, lay, temporal. Chiefly used as a negative term, with the meaning non-ecclesiastical, non-religious, or non-sacred." The common/tabletop Oxford

A cake is a cake, it is not cake-like. You were vague and incorrect and created a misleadingly titled article. That has been amended. This is no different to you deciding to "be bold" and concentrate a large number of sourced articles onto one page. There was no consenus for that either, was

Yes, I agree, technically we are NOT "affiliated" with BPSA UK, we are an independent organization affiliated only with WFIS. Can we at least get the rest of this fixed? Like our highest badges and other info? I had no "problem" with the age groupings. I merely included all that with the entire

The article does not have BSAS, GSUSA, Trail Life, AHG and Camp Fire because they are notable enough to get their own article, Erp. It seemed to redundant for them to have their own section. They are also linked from the Scouting Navbox, which would be mostly likely removed when rename to just

Describe the current situation with a brief description of the big groups such as 4-H, BSA, GSUSA, Campfire with links to their main articles. Describe specifically religious youth ministries/youth groups. Create separate articles for the big ones if they don't already exist. For small ones

There are several problems with the information contained in that article about our association that needs to be corrected. The most important of which is the statement that we are a "secular" scouting organization. This is not the way that the BPSA wishes to present itself, and is indeed very

1003:. It is possible to edit articles where you are involved. The key is to be transparent about who you are and who you are associated with and to pledge to advance the aims of Knowledge over outside interests. You can do this by clearly stating your background on your userpage as I have done at 1704:

Once again, there is no such reliable category as "Scout-like". You have now been repeatedly told this by many editors, and reasoning given - please read it. Your Scouts POV article needs to be Wikified - and will be. If you want to create a Scout POV list, I'd suggest creating a page on

This has not done one iota of good for the article and as I pointed out on CSB's talk page doesn't address the bi- or multinational issue. You have just made it into a "work for work sake" in duplicating the categories just by posting a bunch of wikilinks and miscategorized several scouting

1010:

As an admin, lead coordinator for the Scouting project and as an interested editor, it is my goal to make all articles within our purview both brilliant and reliably sourced. I really do not like taking preemptive or punitive actions, but I will do as needed to advance Knowledge as a whole.

Not sure what your problem, Jeff, is with the age groupings. Also, Knowledge articles are for subject that have are considered notable enough. The whole point of this group article. Previous to the creation of this article, the Baden-Powell Service Association got a single paragraph in the

So it is clear that there were other B-PS groups out there per your own source. So Tarrant's B-PSA may not be related to the current B-PSA except in name only. Secondly, reliable news outlets like the Monterey Herald trump primary sources as articles are not supposed to depend on primary

It is an interesting one. I am a WFIS Scouter. I do not consider myself "Independent" due to not being in WOSM. However that seems to be an accepted use of the phrase. the smaller independent groups, of course, would not be able to be listed as they would fail notability!

Erp, first no consensus has been reached about renaming to "Youth organizations in the US". If you claim to dislike that discussion had not been held for redirects to this article then you should not have disregard that no consensus had been met in moving this article.

So continues your history of abusing editing. There is little point in discussing anything further with you, and I will not bother. I will work with more aware editors and simply remove your POV when required. You have had your chance to show any ability to reason.

The originator of the edit war is a vandal who ought to be blocked. They lie and damage entries - wanting to turn this back into the farce that they created originally. We can wait to discuss it - but they will never do so, and will never abide by majority views.

I was strict on the "national" aspect for the UK article. Anything regional was not included, which helps remove a lot of the fraternities/sororities and the like. Not saying that that is the only way, or even the right way, but it seemed a good way to start.

Because of notability, Trail Life, AHG, and Camp Fire are notable enough for their own article. Number of members isn't a measure of notability so AWANA belongs here. Why are you repeating my reasoning, Erp? Those are the WP rules.

Sorry, but the move was unwarranted as a consensus was not reached. Now, I have my watch list filled with robot edits for the "Robot: Fixing double redirect to Independent Scout and Scout-like organizations in the United States".

AWANA is bigger (even if you just count the US part of its membership) than Trail Life, AHG, and Camp Fire and has its own article so why is it here? By your reasoning none of the groups with their own articles should be here.

Yes, a cake is cake-like, else it sure isn't a cake. Some thing in a subset is still apart of its larger set. No it isn't a misleading title and you have failed to get a consensus to do so. There is consensus as there has been
