[edit] Correct title

My copy of the book is only titled "Baden-Powell".

Shouldn't we rename this article?

Agree. The title should be the book title and that is just "Baden-Powell". --Bduke 05:00, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

If it's the same 1989 book by Jeal, yes. Also, I'd REALLY like someone that has actually read the whole book to update this article into a full review as opposed to what it is now, a review of only 5% of the book. Rlevse 10:47, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

I agree. After reading about this book for years in such detail that I seem to know it, I have finally got a copy of it. Reading it is'nt altering my position but I can now support my views, and it is certainly widening them. I need to finish reading it, but then I'll come back. This article is a problem. --Bduke 13:34, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

I have the book but I only read some sections until now :-( --Lou Crazy 00:58, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

Should the new title be Baden-Powell (book) or Baden-Powell (Jeal) or something else? There certainly are dozens of books titled Baden-Powell, and some of them might be worthy of an encyclopedic entry. --Lou Crazy 01:06, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merge/move and major copy-edit

A complete discussion has taken place on talk:Robert Baden-Powell, 1st Baron Baden-Powell, and concensus has been reached to complete the merging/copy-editing and renaming move. Wim van Dorst (Talk) 21:28, 5 July 2006 (UTC).
