infobox

[edit]

Per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Infoboxes#Using_infoboxes_in_articles , "Whether to include an infobox, which infobox to include, and which parts of the infobox to use, is determined through discussion and consensus among the editors at each individual article." My purpose here is to improve this notable person's article so that it is not deleted again as it once was. I am doing that bit by bit, and it is a slow process as not much exists in English. What's your purpose here?--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 04:28, 22 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@JJMC89: I've restored the dates as I've received them from two members of the Greek Scout Association, even if the blog was unreliable. I know what Boleyn's purpose is here, I ask you again, what's your purpose here?--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 09:26, 24 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion

[edit]

@Boleyn: The previous deletion was a bad call by a semi-retired admin who couldn't properly spell inherent and who disregarded Wikipedia:Deletion guidelines for administrators when there was no clear outcome, two very good arguments for keep (better one being serving as the Camp Chief of a World Scout Jamboree, which is very rare accomplishment (only 23 people), one "I'm not seeing it" delete and one "me too" delete. You said "Nothing different to suggest things have changed"-I submit designing the current World Scout Emblem, used by the world's largest youth movement, worn over 40 million participants[1] If you want to go through the AFD process again, let's do that. Otherwise let me get to finding proper dates and documentation.--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 05:02, 22 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

In addition The Greek National Scout Center was named in his honor. These are both things that were not in the original article. I further submit that anyone who has achieved the highest commendation in the world's largest youth movement is inherently notable; proving it is something different entirely. Just because it's difficult to find in English doesn't mean notability is nonexistent.--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 05:27, 22 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
