Improvements edit

  • This should be put into proper list format
  • Move to List of Distinguished Service Award recipients of the Order of the Arrow.
  • Names should be wikified where possible.
  • Possibly create a category for recipients

Move edit

This article is a list of recipients, therefore propose it be moved to Recipients of the Distinguished Service Award of the Order of the Arrow. The Distinguished Service Award is discussed in full at Honors and awards of the Order of the Arrow.

Please oppose or support:

chart edit

The list should be charted out like this, it would look crisper and easier to read:

award number year awarded name office representing
1 1935 Lord Baden-Powell Chief Scout of the World Chief Scout of the World
113 1976 Kenneth H. Stevens Chief Executive Commissioner, United Kingdom United Kingdom

Image removed for WP:NFCC violation even though "Non-free media information and use rationale" exists edit

Since an image of the award on this page has been repeatedly added and removed, below is the rationale from the ephemeral Wikipedia:Media_copyright_questions to inform future editors.

The image "File:Order of the Arrow Distinguished Service Award.png" was removed from Recipients of the Distinguished Service Award of the Order of the Arrow with the comment:

However, the file description page does, in fact, contain a "Non-free media information and use rationale". I do no understand what else is required. Thanks.

That's because the rationale there is for Order of the Arrow honors and awards. Per WP:NFCC#10c each use has to be enumerated in the file page. Incidentally, I don't think it meets WP:NFCC#8 and WP:NFCC#3 on the recipient page - why does a photo of an award significantly enhance the understanding of the list of its recipients and why can't the use on Order of the Arrow honors and awards suffice?

Delmont43: another point is that non-free images are generally not allowed in list type articles which Recipients of the Distinguished Service Award of the Order of the Arrow clearly is, per WP:NFLISTS. ww2censor (talk) 13:13, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
