Sorry about this. I was sort of attempting to make a standard infobox for Merit Badges, but I'm kind of failing.Epmatsw 16:59, June 17, 2007 (EDT)

Okay, Swim4lyfe, Epmatsw, et al...
- Let me know what you think that could make this better. (I know you can.)
- The Status could be: Active, Discontinued, or Renamed (from, not to)
- The difference is (well, used to be), you couldn't earn the same Merit Badge NUMBER(!) twice, regardless of it's name, or revision date, or whatever. If a Merit Badge is re-written -and- the number changes, you could earn them both. However, if the numbers were different, you could earn them both. E.g., Atomic Energy was re-written and renamed to Nuclear Science; but, the number (BSA Advancement ID) remained the same... In such instances, you could only earn one of the two, but not both. This used to be a problem; but, with all the Merit Badge changes over the last few years, it's no longer an issue. (I might have gotten this backwards; but, you get the idea.) --RWSmith (Sysop), 06:27, September 6, 2007 (EDT)
- I can clarify that- you cannot earn the same merit badge number- only merit badges of different numbers, including Atomic Energy/Nuclear Science and Firemanship/Fire Safety. However, discontinued merit badges with different numbers may still be earned. Also- merit badges that were pre-1987 (I think) and do not have assigned numbers may also be earned, regardless of reason of discontinuation. Swim4lyfe 19:52, September 6, 2007 (EDT)
Eagle-required
Will be automatically included in the silver template (only), so we won't have to worry about it. --RWSmith (Sysop), 06:40, September 6, 2007 (EDT)
Blank fields
I was hoping we could add parser functions so we could blank out (completely hide) unused fields, which would be great for discontinued Merit Badges, or new Merit Badges, or renamed... yada, yada. --RWSmith (Sysop), 06:27, September 6, 2007 (EDT)
- What are parser functions? Swim4lyfe 19:54, September 6, 2007 (EDT)
Previous requirements
Clicking on the link will take the user to a subpage where the previous requirements can be located. --RWSmith (Sysop), 06:35, September 6, 2007 (EDT)
The help link
Will take the User to a help page that explains the terms and when/how to use which set of requirements. --RWSmith (Sysop), 06:35, September 6, 2007 (EDT)
More ideas???
- I'm currently in the process of drafting a resource page that includes every discontinued merit badge in existence, including the ones from 1910. I'll post a link in my userpage when I'm done. Swim4lyfe 19:56, September 6, 2007 (EDT)
- Also- concerning the template, how about adding a "discontinued" date as well for the discontinued badges? I can work on that template this weekend.
