Talk:Eagle Scout

L. Ron Hubbard - Youngest Eagle Scout
That's kind of like saying someone was the youngest 12 year old. Each rank has a particular set period of time at which you must remain before advancing to the next rank.

Primary sourcing
Whoever is reviewing this article should note the high amount of primary / non-independent sources cited and judge if all the content included is encyclopedic. Also, any information subject to change such as scholarship information needs to have an "as of" date (MOS:CURRENT). (t &#183; c)  buidhe  16:57, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Not sure what you mean by primary sourcing. When something is huge, decentralized and diverse, you can't lump everything with a relation to it into a monolith.  For example, for the Human article, you wouldn't call everything written by a human to be a primary source. North8000 (talk) 17:09, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
 * In this case, I mean sources that are published by Scouts BSA such as their official website, magazine, or press releases. (t &#183; c)  buidhe  17:27, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
