Scout and About

MeritBadge.org has many of the aspects of a standard wiki, where encyclopedic institutional authority and NPOV policies sometimes run afoul of the very structure of open access and user-generated content, whether it is a legitimate contributor lamely promising to deliver a better vector graphics image just as soon as he (or she) figures out the software or a spammer introducing "game power leveling and game gold" into the page for "helping scouts advance."

When I was kid, I asked my dad why he wouldn't help me with cub scouting. He told me he wouldn't because they were a fascist organization. Imagine telling that to an eight year old. I was like... what's a fascist? Anyway, do you suppose he might be more approving if he saw this web page?
