message: In the section titled "Differences", it is stated: 
"There are several differences between modern Scouting and the Traditional Scouting movement:
* Scouting games, Patrol totems and calls, and advancement are based on standards rather than competition."
Sorry i am not familiar with this topic, but could someone please clarify if the dot-point is describing what is in modern scouting vs. what is in Traditional Scouting.  All the other dot-points are similarly unclear on what is the modern vs. what is the traditional practice.  Hope this helps someone improve this article somewhat. doncram (talk) 05:05, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Different confusion 

message: I'm throwing in my chips and calling here. I think most of this article is bogus. There is no international traditional Scouting movement. There are some national Scouting organizations that base their program on their interpretation of traditional Scouting, but each is different, and none uses the same program.
Every reference in this article is to http://www.inquiry.net/. Lets look at http://www.inquiry.net/traditional/index.htm in particular and pick out a few points:
* The following hypothetical Traditional Scouting model is how 21st century American Scouting might be organized if it were based on how strictly Baden-Powell's English model was copied in Canada and Australia. 
* Independent Pathfinders (a generic American hypothetical adaptation of Baden-Powell's "Traditional" or original Scouting program)
* Otters (Traditional Scouting for Ages 5-7)
* Timber Wolves (Traditional Scouting for Ages 8-10)
Someone please show me where this stuff has actually been implemented? --—— Gadget850 (Ed) talk -  15:48, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: As mentioned in several places above, this article was a bit of a mess.  Most of the citations directed to one person's blog, and very little of the material was supported by reliable sources.  I have done a rewrite, attempting to strip away the editorializing and speculation, bringing in sources from the organizations themselves as well as reliable press reports.  I have also eliminated a lot of the jargon and undefined concepts that other commenters have pointed out as confusing; if anyone would care to re-write those for a general audience please feel free to add back in.
