Is there a way to check/look at/list how many pages link to a stub? For example, Alexander Anderson McHardy has only 62 words; the information on his parents and wife are incidental and perhaps not necessary to the purposes of Scouting information. My thought/question is this: if only one or two pages link to him, his page could be folded up. But how can I tell? Scoutersig 16:29, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

Yes, on the left side of the screen when you are in the article, the next tab under the search is "what links here", click that and it will make you a list. The reason those articles are Scouting stubs is that they have something to do with someone of note who was involved in Scouting. I wouldn't remove the stuff about their wives, etc., if they exist, they may actually be more famous in some other field. Chris 01:37, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
