[edit] Proposed Category: Wikipedians who survived Philmont

I have edited the templates {{user Arrowman}}, {{user vigil}}, and {{user vigil-n}} to include all Order of the Arrow tagged userpages in both Category:Arrowman Wikipedians and Category:Wikipedians in the Boy Scouts of America ... my logic was that OA membership implies membership in the Boy Scouts of America, just as being a Vigil Brother implies being an Arrowman (you must be one in order to be the other).

I noticed that a lot of editors who use the {{User Philmont}} template do not use any other Scouting user templates or Scouting userboxes, and there is no category to list the user ... I thought that Category:Wikipedians who survived Philmont should be created by {{User Philmont}}, and it should also be a subcategory of Category:Wikipedians in the Boy Scouts of America, since having been to Philmont implies BSA membership ... so I modified the template, but I can't complete the last step.

See, I'm just an anonymous wikignome, so Some One Else will have to login and edit the Category:Wikipedians who survived Philmont article in order to create it ... I suggest that you use Category:Eagle Scout Wikipedians as an example of how to do it (copy&paste from edit window to edit window), and remind folks that using it will automatically add them to Category:Wikipedians in the Boy Scouts of America in spite of what their other userboxes may declare, like {{User NotEagle-Life}}, {{User former BSA}}, or {{User Scouts Canada}}.

If anyone thinks that this is a Bad Idea, then just revert {{User Philmont}} and the redlinks will go away. —141.156.240.102 (talk|contribs) 20:47, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
