Reference Format? edit

Worth considering whether to change the slightly unusual reference method to a more typical one? North8000 (talk) 21:31, 29 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

I'm still working on it if you mean the visual appearance in the ref section. If you mean the ref's with / in the body, that's the new method, makes it way easier to read. RlevseTalk 22:06, 29 October 2010 (UTC)Reply
I meant the refs in the body. The red error message is what made me look. Sincerely, North8000 (talk) 22:47, 29 October 2010 (UTC)Reply
The basic formatting is done now and the red one is fixed. All that's left in the body with this is "<ref name="title"/>", which is about 90% less than what you normally see in the body, so this method is far easier to read and edit when in edit mode, that's why it's quickly gaining popularity.RlevseTalk 22:54, 29 October 2010 (UTC)Reply
You know this far better than I do, I just thought it might be helpful to ask the question. North8000 (talk) 23:03, 29 October 2010 (UTC)Reply
No problem. Open this article in edit mode and then Scouting in edit mode and tell me which is easier to read. When just reading the articled, not in edit mode, there's no visual difference.RlevseTalk 23:07, 29 October 2010 (UTC)Reply
Of course, you are right. Thanks! North8000 (talk) 01:12, 31 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Move (What should this be named) edit

Can we come to a consensus now about what this article should be names before we get a move war going. From what I've seen at my local council its gone both ways:

  • Choice 1: The Summit Bechtel Family National Scout Reserve
  • Choice 2: The Summit: Bechtel Family National Scout Reserve

which one is the most common to fulfill WP:COMMONNAME? --Guerillero | My Talk 21:16, 30 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

The BSA Language of Scouting style guide lists it without the colon— that should be the official name. ---— Gadget850 (Ed) talk 16:12, 8 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
Sounds good. North8000 17:31, 8 December 2010 (UTC)
