Why capital letters? Michael Hardy 02:06 May 11, 2003 (UTC)
- I'm not entirely sure, but it somehow makes sense that it should be a proper noun. The Scout Handbook (not necessarily a reliable example) uses capital letters. -Smack, June 29, 2003
Established by the Boy Scouts?
Were the ten essentials first established by the Boy Scouts? I heard it was The Mountaineers. --- hike395 04:16, 24 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- I don't think that my wording implies that the Scouts were the first to establish a set of ten essentials. Also, if the Mountaineers had them before, we can be reasonably sure that it was a different set, as sun protection didn't become an issue of interest until the latter 20th century.

Re: Scout Essentials or Ten Essentials?
The simple reason for the article having its current name is that this is specifically a Boy Scouts of America list — it's not meant to be redundent to the ten essentials page. It's not equivalent to "outdoor essentials for scouts of any sort". As long as we're discussing BSA matters, the Handbook is altogether a reliable source :-) Nyttend (talk) 13:50, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
