I'm reasonably certain that scoutcraft is uncountable. Purplebackpack89 (Notes Taken) (Locker) 21:40, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

google books:"scoutcrafts" finds quite a number of plural usages, e.g. [1], [2], [3], and more. —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 21:51, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I'm striking the two of the above links because on further inspection they turned out to be science-fiction terms meaning "scout vehicle". But the one remaining link above really does have to do with scouting. There are other relevant hits from Boys Life too, as well as this which I can see only in snippet view, but I can see that it says, "Camp Yagowanea [...] is for boys from ten to seventeen. Scoutcrafts and water sports are featured", so it appears to be relevant too. —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 21:57, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Whoa, cool your jets. Two of the links have been questioned. Is their enough evidence for scoutcraft as a science fiction vehicle used for scouting? As such, I'm Rfv-ing scoutcraft below. Purplebackpack89 (Notes Taken) (Locker) 22:06, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Some more citations for the original RFV (a total of four) have now been added to scoutcrafts. —Mr. Granger (talkcontribs) 22:10, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The “Cited” was posted because citations had been added to the entry, not because of the links. Do pay attention. — Ungoliant (falai) 22:23, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Passed. — Ungoliant (falai) 01:29, 7 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
