You made a mess out of Northern Tier Articles

With your cut and paste moves you made a big mess. Somebody is going to need to do a lot of work to undo the damage. North8000 (talk) 22:09, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah I completely forgot about the move process. It’s been a while. I’ve reverted the pages so the talk pages align again. Etaylor128 (talk) 00:05, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

What on earth were you trying to do with this move? You really have created a mess. If you think that Sea Base High Adventure should be moved to Sea Base you need to start a requested move. That move would be potentially controversial so you need to develop a consensus. Lord Bolingbroke (talk) 01:23, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Jesus Christ and the same thing at Northern Tier ... @North8000: I've tagged Northern Tier and Sea Base for G6 deletion so that the dab pages can be moved back to their proper titles. I'd appreciate a once-over to make sure I haven't missed anything. Lord Bolingbroke (talk) 01:31, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Hopefully I reverted the pages properly. Etaylor128 (talk) 01:47, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

No worries, it should get sorted out soon. You're doing some good work updating Scouting America articles; just make sure you're not being too hasty and creating situations that need to be cleaned up by other editors down the line. If you have any questions, feel free to message me on my talk page :) Lord Bolingbroke (talk) 01:54, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! Etaylor128 (talk) 11:19, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I was stating the reality of the situation. That aside, thanks for your work! North8000 (talk) 14:06, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Deprodding of First Class Scout (Boy Scouts of America)

I have removed the {{proposed deletion/dated}} tag from First Class Scout (Boy Scouts of America), which you proposed for deletion. I'm leaving this message here to notify you about it. If you still think this article should be deleted, please do not add {{proposed deletion}} back to the page. Instead, feel free to list it at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. Thanks!

I notice this article was PRODded yesterday and redirected earlier today (Scout Sunday, of all times!). I contest this; I believe that this warrants a stand-alone article. Here's why:

Tenderfoot and Second Class are a build-up to First Class, much as Star and Life build up to Eagle,. If you only have two of them, Star and
All of the Scout ranks easily pass GNG; if people are concerned about articles about some ranks and not others, the remedy is to CREATE the remaining ranks, not DELETE First Class

While I agree that the lower ranks build to first class, individual articles for each rank make the Ranks in Scouts BSA page obsolete. Additionally, first class, unlike Eagle, has objectively not received significant coverage from sources other than Scouting America. In fact, the only sources for the article are the scout handbook and the rank requirements. Etaylor128 (talk) 17:29, 16 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
