Scout leader

This page is a redirect. The following categories are used to track and monitor this redirect:

From a Scouting page merge: This is a redirect from a Scouting title that was merged into the target article. This page was kept as a redirect in order to preserve its edit history after its content was merged into the target article's content. Please do not remove the tag that generates this text (unless the need to recreate content on this page has been demonstrated) nor delete this page.
- For Scouting redirects with substantive page histories that did not result from page merges use {{R with history}} instead.

From a printworthy page title: This is a redirect from a title that would be helpful in a printed or CD/DVD version of Misplaced Pages. See Misplaced Pages:Printability and Version 1.0 Editorial Team for more information.

From a subtopic: This is a redirect from a subtopic of the target article or section.
- If the redirected subtopic could potentially have its own article in the future, then also tag the redirect with {{R with possibilities}} and {{R printworthy}}.

When appropriate, protection levels are automatically sensed, described and categorized.
