Scouting Project and IP
Mike: you've been showing up all day as your IP, not your user name. You have good contributions to Scouting, and you may be interested in joining our budding project at: User_talk:Gadget850/BSA_article_improvements; if so, please add yourself to the table in the "interested wikipedians" section. Rlevse 20:10, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
Thanks!
Just tipping my hat to you for your contributions to All-American Publications! It's always so great to start a needed page, and then see other people contributing to it. So cool! (You even prompted me to check something that revealed a chronological error I'd made. All to the good!) — Tenebrae 06:34, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

Hi! As you are interested in the tribal articles, take a look at
Scouting caps
Before we get into an edit war on caps, please take a look at The Language of Scouting (LoS) and look at the entry capitalization under Scouting Terms and Style. The LoS is the official BSA useage, and we are trying to be consistent on this.
On merit badges, we were both incorrect:
- merit badge: ... Capitalize the name but not the words "merit badge." Example: "earn the Lifesaving and Swimming merit badges."
- So, it should be Camping merit badge.
YIS, --Gadget850 ( Ed) 20:07, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
PS: Not all Scouting literature conforms to the LoS useage, but it is the standard. --Gadget850 ( Ed) 20:12, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
Yes, I have read the LOS, which is why I didn't go back and change anything. I just don't agree with their cap rules. For instance, to me it should be Junior Assistant Scoutmaster, not junior assistant Scoutmaster, etc. --Emb021 20:13, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
Well, we need to conform to some sort of standard. Until the project came along, this was all over the place. This use also conforms to the
- I've got to go with Emb021 on this one. "Patrol Leader", "Junior Assistant Scoutmaster", and all unit jobs (youth or adult) are titles of specific jobs and as such should be capitalized. Not capitalizing them makes it look like a generic phrase; it's like not capitalizing Systems Engineer on a business card. I know it says otherwise in the LOS and the Scout handbook has them lowercase, but I have always disagreed with it. On the other hand, I do agree with Ed that we need to be consistent throught the Scouting articles. Rlevse 21:42, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
Systems Engineer would be capitalized in that case, since it applies to a specific person: see
Editing
BTW: We were both adding the same info (Brownsea etc.) to the Boy Scouts (Boy Scouts of America) article at the same time. When I tried to save, I got the edit conflict message and simply pasted my edits back in until I could see what had been added. Weird how that happened.
FWIW, I've been in Scouting since 1969 and Venturing since 1999. Doc Miller's office is about 10 minutes from here: he was my Wood Badge counselor. Seems like we have a lot of the same interests. I've seen your web site, and indeed have referenced it several times, before I knew that was you. It does have a bit of a bandwith cap, so I can only get so many looks before it closes. --Gadget850 ( Ed) 21:18, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
Scout BSA
I noted on your website the dark green Scout BSA strip for the Leadership Corpshttp://www.geocities.com/yosemite/falls/8826/pics/scoutbsagreenshirt.jpg]. I have one of these in the light green. I was in the Leadership Corps in 1975-76 or so, and may have been given the strip then, but never put it on my uniform. We never wore the forest green shirt. --Gadget850 ( Ed) 20:28, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
Thanks
I just want to thank you for making that photo work on Steve Fossett. I uploaded the photo and then could not complete the whole thing. I can't thank you enough! PowersPhotos.
- Sorry, didn't do anything. Was just adding Fossett to the Silver Buffalo category. --Emb021 20:48, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
Scouting article work
If you are getting this, it is because you do or did work on Scouting articles (see Wikipedia:WikiProject_Scouting#Participants_and_primary_areas_of_interest).
As the Scouting WikiProject has been formed since early January 2006, we've had many great improvements made in this area of Wiki and I want to personally thank everyone for their help. We don't always agree on things, but we keep moving forward. YIS, Rlevse 22:09, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
Blocked?!?
"Autoblocked because your IP address has been recently used by "Metavandal". The reason given for Metavandal's block is: "user..."."
Some user named Curps has blocked me because he has blocked the IP I come in from (129.188.33.221), which is a proxy IP. Ridicious!
- Unblocked, sorry about that, none of us sysops have any way of knowing if the user is coming from a proxy (I assume AOL) or not, as we don't have IP addresses for usernames. Anyways, you should be able to edit now -- Tawker 18:31, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
Ace Books
Hi -- I noticed you're making some improvements to some of the paperback publishing stubs. Glad to see it. One I've spent quite a bit of time on is Ace Books, and I wondered if there was anything you could do to improve the article. I asked for a peer review on it and one thing that was suggested was to get more background information on the success of the company financially over the years. Currently there is very little about the success of the line since the 1970s. Anyway, anything you can do would be much appreciated; and if not, I'm glad to see your improvements to Popular and Dell and so on.
