Scoutball is not sufficiently notable and is not a good standalone article, but the information should not be lost.--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 05:10, 28 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

Scoutball: Meaning of the word "Scalp" edit

The meaning of "scalp" according to google is "the skin covering the head, excluding the face", however it is clear that in the article it is used as a synonym for each scout's scarf. I've been trying to find more times were the word was used in this manner, (because perhaps Scouting changed its meaning; and since in my own group,an argentinian one, we use the spanish translation to signify the scarf usage in games, i got curious), but I could only find one instance in one of Gilcraft's books: "Wide Games". Does anyone know how common is it to refer to one's own scarf as a scalp and when did this change came to be? Thanks!! Qwerty245 (talk) 21:29, 17 February 2022 (UTC) [1]Reply

I confirm that "scalp" is the name given to the scout neckerchief or scarf when used in games, especially scoutball and scalpo. --Checco (talk) 15:14, 19 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
