Scouting in Nicaragua shut down

see https://apnews.com/article/nicaragua-crackdown-scouts-daniel-ortega-ceb7679bad9155e5f69d6cf34e16d606 --jergen (talk) 11:40, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

I see updates have been made at Asociación de Scouts de Nicaragua. GoingBatty (talk) 00:46, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
I'm not sure if past tense is correct since the association (or part of its management) is seemingly still active, eg on Facebook. Unfortunately my Spanish is not good enough to understand every detail of and but to me this reads like the Nicaraguan Scouts are actively trying to maintain the association. --jergen (talk) 18:01, 24 February 2024 (UTC)

FYI on article within the project. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/COPE (Boy Scouts of America) North8000 (talk) 15:53, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

This is a bad article in every aspect. It fails to show the programmes notability, uses mainly primary sources and describes only a minor and very BSA-specific aspect of ropes courses in an educational setting. From a world-wide viewpoint I can't even understand why this was written. --jergen (talk) 09:32, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
My own opinion is that it's common for there to be sub-articles for enclyclopedic information where they would make the top level article too large. And they often contain "boring" enclyclopedic information which secondary sources write little on. Having done thousands of NPP reviews (while also learning from experienced-others during that process) common practice is to not apply an unusually strict application of GNG to these. Whether you base that on common practice or application of the WP:IAR policy to develop enclyclopedic coverage / include enclyclopedic material.
