 * I don't see why some of the ceremonial details and traditions mentioned in and  are not incorporated into this article and cited as sources for the specific details of this ceremony. While it cannot be used to establish GNG, once notability is established such official Girl Scout "how-to" publications can be used for information about it, as outlined at ABOUTSELF. For example, we could add: The Western Ohio Council of the Girl Scouts of America say, "The main purpose of these explained the ash ceremony's purpose is to "bring to the attention of all Girl Scouts and Guides the global sisterhood of Girl Scouts and remind girls that Girl Scouts has an enduring legacy passed down from member to member going back over 100 years", citing Girl Scout Traditions: Ash Ceremonies as a ref. &mdash;   JGHowes   talk  01:52, 8 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Is this fact and source okay with you? --evrik (talk) 02:17, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
 * If we're going with an ABOUTSELF claim, we can't attribute quotes from that source to GSA. Nikkimaria (talk) 02:30, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
 * gswoblog.org is part of the Girl Scout of Western Ohio. Don't ask me why it's separate from gswo.org --evrik (talk) 02:35, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
 * No, I understand that, but is there anything to support that a quote from GSWO should be attributed to GSA? Nikkimaria (talk) 02:59, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Granted, GSWO is a regional or area component of the national organization, probably quoting some national publication we don't have access to online, such as The Girls Guide to Girl Scouting (which delves into GS traditions in greater detail). For the sake of complete accuracy, I've reworded it. Another tidbit that could be added to help flesh out this article, gleaned from Girl Scout Leader Info, is that participants are supposed to keep a written log of each such campfire.

 * How does that second source meet WP:SPS? Nikkimaria (talk) 14:38, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
 * , you are right. I was under the mistaken belief it was an official GSUSA pub, but upon reading the website's Home page, I now see that it's indeed SPS. Have removed it.  JGHowes   talk  15:51, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

Photo for article
Might a photo such as this of Scouts gathered around a campfire in Slovenia be better? &mdash;  JGHowes   talk  16:07, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I am open to a better picture. Can we find one that is focused on the fire and the fire ring? --evrik (talk) 20:33, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
