Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Scouting

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Scouting. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion

Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:

Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Scouting|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.

Removing a closed AfD discussion

Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.

Other types of discussions

You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Scouting. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.

Further information

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

Lack of notability. Note that the first cited source, which is the only one of any seeming solidity, is about the father of the article subject. TheLongTone (talk) 14:27, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Baron Baden-Powell per WP:AtD. Ingratis (talk) 21:08, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- It's usual to redirect non-notable individual peers to the articles on their peerages, but the title as it stands is incorrect: it should be David Baden-Powell, 5th Baron Baden-Powell. The present title is an implausible search term. Ingratis (talk) 13:29, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect as suggested above. Clearly not notable. Bduke (talk) 22:52, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Yet another non-notable, poorly sourced article on scouting. Axad12 (talk) 13:02, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Move to correct title David Baden-Powell, 5th Baron Baden-Powell without leaving a redirect and then redirect to Baron Baden-Powell. Celia Homeford (talk) 11:44, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
As it was stated above, move to the correct title without leaving a redirect and then redirect that page to Baron Baden-Powell. Keivan.f^Talk 16:09, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
