Welcome to the English language [[ScoutWiki:About|ScoutWiki]]. ScoutWiki is a free encyclopaedia which consists of '''Scouting and Guiding related articles'''. Anyone can participate by creating a new page or by editing an existing article. The English version of ScoutWiki currently has [[Special:Statistics|{{NUMBEROFARTICLES}}]] articles in English. However, most of these articles could use some improvement, as compared to (e.g.) the Finnish, the French and the Dutch ScoutWiki's. To make this wiki a useful tool for scouts all over the world, your help is desired! Can we count on you?
