[edit] scouting badge emblem

The yellow-background emblem is of the Israel Scouting Badge (named after Arie Croch). The emblem of the Israel Wood Badge is similar, but is has a red background.

[edit] English name

I checked out the National Scout Organisations, and the name of this organization in English is Israel Boy and Girl Scouts Federation. I think we should change it to that name. --evrik 22:46, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

• I agree, put the tranliterated name in the parenthesis. Somebody add the move proprosal Removed the Hebrew script request. NYC2TLV 04:51, 9 April 2007 (UTC) I remove my agreement with this idea after seeing that every other scout group on Wikipedia goes by their transliterated names. NYC2TLV 04:54, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

This definitely needs to be changed to the Israel Scouts Federation!! --Gilabrand 11:55, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

Here, look at their official website - nobody uses that long-winded Hebrew name this page goes by. The English says "Israeli Scouts" while the Hebrew is "Tnuat Hatzofim Haivriim Beyisrael," which translates as the Israeli Hebrew Scout Movement. Nothing about guiding or girl scouts or girl guides: http://www.zofim.org.il/about_tnua_english.asp

Apart from the name problem, the article itself is not sourced at all - so I have just as much right to add to it as you do, and mainly I corrected the English. If you want this page to be readable, then please restore my changes. If you prefer gibberish, leave it as is. And by the way, I wrote about this name change in June (see above) and no one responded. --Gilabrand 20:09, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

This is not the webpage of the federation and does not mention it at all. If you are not able to diferenciate between organizations you should not edit on Wikipedia. --jergen 20:35, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

I've named it "Israel Boy and Girl Scouts Federation" as this is the English title used by the International Scouting Organisation. пﮟოьεԻ 57 20:17, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
