This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 35.171.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪JJMC89‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:20, 2 December 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

'''Scouting in Russia''' comprises several dozen [[Scouting|Scout]] associations, based on religion, politics and geography.

[[File:Russian Scout camp prior to 1917.jpg|thumb|180px|Russian Boy Scout camp. Before 1917]]

===1908 to 1922===
In 1908, [[Robert Baden-Powell, 1st Baron Baden-Powell|Baden-Powell]]'s book ''Scouting for Boys'' came out in Russia by the order of [[Tsar]] [[Nicholas II of Russia|Nicholas II]]. It was called ''Young Scout'' (((lang|ru|Юный Разведчик)), ''Yuny Razvedchik''). On ((OldStyleDate|April 30|1909|April 17)), a young officer, Colonel [[Oleg Pantyukhov]], organized the first Russian Scout troop ''Beaver'' (((lang|ru|Бобр)), ''Bobr'') in [[Pavlovsk, Saint Petersburg|Pavlovsk]], a town near [[Tsarskoye Selo]], St. Petersburg region. From 30 December 1910, Baden-Powell was in Russia for a week or more,<ref>B-P's diary</ref> and visited Nicholas II in Tsarskoye Selo; they had a very pleasant conversation, as the Tsar remembered it. In 1914, Pantyukhov established a [[society]] called ''Russian Scout'' (((lang|ru|Русский Скаут)), ''Russkiy Skaut''). The first Russian Scout campfire was lit in the woods of Pavlovsk Park in Tsarskoye Selo. A Russian Scout song exists to remember this event. Scouting spread rapidly across Russia and into [[Siberia]], and by 1916, there were about 50,000 Scouts in Russia. Nicholas' son [[Tsarevich]] [[Tsarevich Alexei of Russia|Aleksei]] was a Scout himself.

With the advent of communism after the [[October Revolution]] of 1917, and during the [[Russian Civil War]] from 1917 to 1922, most of the Scoutmasters and many Scouts fought in the ranks of the [[White Army]] and interventionists against the [[Red Army]].

In Soviet Russia the Scouting system started to be replaced by [[Scouting#Nonaligned and Scout-like organizations|ideologically-altered Scout like organizations]], such as ((lang|ru|"ЮК")) (((lang|ru|"Юные Коммунисты")), or ''young communists''; pronounced as ''yuk''), that were created since 1918. There was a purge of the Scout leaders, many of whom perished under the [[Bolsheviks]]. Those Scouts who did not wish to accept the new [[Soviet Union|Soviet]] system either left Russia for good, like Pantyukhov and others, or went underground. However, [[Clandestine operation|clandestine]] Scouting did not last long. On May 19, 1922 all of those newly created organizations were united into the [[Young Pioneer organization of the Soviet Union]], which existed until 1990. From that date, Scouting in the [[Soviet Union|USSR]] was banned.

However, some features of Scouting remained in the modified form. The [[Scout motto]] "Bud' Gotov" ("Be Prepared") was modified into the Pioneer motto "Vsegda Gotov" ("Always Prepared"). Mention of [[God]] was removed, replaced by [[Vladimir Lenin|Lenin]] and the [[Communist Party of the Soviet Union]]. There were no separate organizations for girls and boys, and many new features were introduced, like [[Young Pioneer Palace]]s.

===In exile===
The organization then went into exile, and continued in many countries where fleeing White Russian émigrés settled, establishing groups in [[France]], [[Serbia]], [[Bulgaria]], [[Argentina]], [[Chile]], and [[Paraguay]]. A much larger mass of thousands of Russian Scouts moved through [[Vladivostok]] to the east into [[Manchuria]] and south into [[China]].

Colonel Pantyukhov, Chief Scout of Russia, first resided in France and then moved to the United States, where large troops of Russian Scouts were established in cities such as [[San Francisco]], [[Burlingame, California]], and [[Los Angeles]]. He returned to [[Nice, France]] where he died.

Russian Scouting was recognized as a member of the World Organization of the Scout Movement, in exile, from 1928 to 1945.

Russian Scouting eventually split into two organizations over ideological differences. These are the modern-day [[National Organization of Russian Scouts (Scouts-in-Exile)|National Organization of Russian Scouts]] (NORS) and [[Organization of Russian Young Pathfinders (Scouts-in-Exile)|Organization of Russian Young Pathfinders]] (ORYuR/((lang|ru|ОРЮР))). As neither organization was created ''ex nihilo'', they may both be considered legitimate successors to the ''Русский Скаут'' heritage.

===After 1990===
The Scout movement began to reemerge and was reborn within Russia in 1990, when relaxation of government restrictions allowed youth organizations to be formed to fill the void left by the Pioneers, with various factions competing for recognition. Some former Pioneer leaders have also formed Scout groups, and there is some controversy as to their motivations in doing so.

The World Organization of the Scout Movement asked [[the Scout Association]] of the United Kingdom to assist the Scout Organizations in the Moscow and Saint Petersburg regions. Other national Scout organizations are involved in helping other regions; the [[Boy Scouts of America]] are involved in the regions to the east of the Urals, for instance.

As with many European nations, several Scout associations were actively supporting the growth of Scouting in Russia, and served Scouts with regards to persuasion of faith, national orientation and geography.

At the end of the 1990s, several of the associations formed the All-Russian National Scouting Organisation (ARNSO) (((lang|ru|Всероссийская Национальная Скаутская Организация (ВНСО))), Vserossiyskaya Natsionalnaya Skautskaya Organizatsiya (VNSO)), guided by WOSM. In 2000, it became a member of WOSM.

14 Russian Scouts were invited to take part in the [[19th World Scout Jamboree]] in 1999.<ref>((cite journal

|publisher=21st World Scout Jamboree))</ref>

The membership was transferred in 2004 to the RAS/N, following the disintegration of ARNSO. RAS/N is also an umbrella federation of different associations, some of them former members of ARNSO.

== Scouting organizations in Russia ==
Russia is served by at least ten different nationwide Scouting organizations and about 30 regional and local associations.<ref name="OrgsRussia">((cite web |url=http://www.scouts.ru/modules/address/ |title=Cкаутские организации России и международные организации |access-date=2007-01-05 |publisher=ОРЮР))</ref> Most of the nationwide organizations consist of both regional associations and directly served units - in some cases even in the same cities.

The given membership numbers of the organizations<ref name="OrgsRussia" /> are quite rough and in some cases inconsistent since no annual census is conducted.

==Ideals, program, and awards==
The [[Scout Motto]] is ''Будь готов'' (Bud' Gotov, ''Be Prepared'' in [[Russian language|Russian]]. The Russian noun for a single Scout is ((lang|ru|Скаут)), but can alternately be ((lang|ru|Разведчик)) or ((lang|ru|Навигатор)) depending on the organization. As ((lang|ru|Разведчик)) also carries the connotation of ''spy'', now often perceived as negative in the post-Soviet period, many now refer to themselves as ((lang|ru|Скаут)) or ((lang|ru|Навигатор)), the more neutral term for the original meaning, an advance party sent to reconnoiter the terrain, similar to [[wikt:pathfinder|pathfinder]] or [[explorer]].

The highest Russian Scout distinction is known as the '''Order of the Bronze Beaver'''.

==International Scouting units in Russia==
In addition, there are USA Girl Scouts Overseas in [[Moscow]], serviced by way of USAGSO headquarters in [[New York City]]; as well as Cub Scout Pack 3950 and Boy Scout Troop 500, both of Moscow, linked  to the [[Direct Service]] branch of the Boy Scouts of America, which supports units around the world.<ref>((cite web|title=Direct Service Units|url=http://www.directservicebsa.org/|access-date =2011-03-10|publisher=Direct Service · Boy Scouts of America))</ref>
There are also British Girl Guides served by [[Girlguiding BGIFC|British Guides in Foreign Countries]] in [[Sakhalin]].<ref>((cite web|title=Girlguiding BGIFC Units (Birthday List)|url=http://www.bgifc.org.uk/birthdays.html|access-date=2011-03-10|publisher=Girlguiding BGIFC|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100323155252/http://www.bgifc.org.uk/birthdays.html|archive-date=2010-03-23))</ref>

==Network Russia Scout Fellowship==
[[File:Network Russia Scout Fellowship (Russian).png|left|thumb|100px|Network Russia Scout Fellowship badge in Russian]]
<!-- Deleted image removed: [[File:Network Russia Scout Fellowship badge.png|thumb|Network Russia Scout Fellowship badge]] -->

Early in 1991, [[the Scout Association]] and the Boy Scouts of America were asked to assist the World Bureau to encourage the development of Russian Scouting, with the UK assisting in European Russia, and the BSA assisting in Siberia. In 1991 an experimental camp was held in [[Odesa, Ukraine]] by UK Scouts. In 1992, an international training course for 17 Russian leaders was held at the International Office at [[Gilwell Park]] and a study visit to Moscow and Saint Petersburg to establish direct links between British and Russian groups later in the year.

The UK support network became the Network Russia Scout Fellowship in March 2000, and continues to support Scout relationships with Russia, establishing a web-based point of contact and holding meetings twice a year to encourage developments in Russia.
