Boys/Girls Brigade edit

I'm unsure as to why Boys and Girls Brigade are included in this list. As far as I know they don't consider themselves scouts - indeed the movement predates Scouting. As far as I know they are not WOSM affiliated. They have a different founder who they are very proud of. They may be a youth organisation that is organised in a very similar way to Scouts and share many aims and objectives but as far as I know they shouldn't be on this list.

Any feedback? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Benjym (talkcontribs) 20:42, 18 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

The Scope of Scouting articles is, in general covered by Wikipedia:WikiProject Scouting/Scope. The BB in particular had a great influence on Scouting in the early days and there were BB Scout Troops. Note that membership of WOSM is not an inclusion criteria in any sense. Quite apart from organisations that are affilitated to the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts, there are many organisations that that are not affiliated to WOSM. --Bduke (Discussion) 00:16, 19 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
