I said there would be more, another 5 upmerged state templates have reached 60 propose the following (speedy)

more will follow, though these should get the parent off the oversized list. Waacstats (talk) 22:05, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

Self-evident from the category of the same name. I'm a first-timer; I would have thought a stub automatically existed for every category. Am I missing something? Petershank (talk) 20:43, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

No, that's where our hard toil and tears come into play I'm afraid. Your template is way too much of a mouthful. I'd recommend simply {{France-military-struct-stub}} if the template is needed. Dr. Blofeld ^{White cat} 20:47, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

That name won't do either Dr B - that would mean forts (struct = buildings and structures), and we use "mil" for military. I'd suggest that {{France-mil-unit-stub}} would be a better way to go, though I'm not sure whether that form or another is used for other countries which have such a type (if any). Grutness...wha? 00:19, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
- As the only country we have currently split out is the UK, I say we use that as a template and so Grutness would be correct in the name, I would however hold off on a category as it appears to be on the low side. It may be worth creating {{Germany-mil-unit-stub}} and {{US-mil-unit-stub}} aswell. Waacstats (talk) 12:24, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

Links people from this profession. Dr. Blofeld ^{White cat} 18:04, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

Given the size of Category:Seismologists it could be a little on the thin side, but an upmerged template (into Category:Geologist stubs, maybe) might be worthwhile. Grutness...wha? 00:22, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

Would be useful to tie odd biographies from some of the more obscure asian countries together. Dr. Blofeld ^{White cat} 18:04, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

If you think how vast China is and that the near 800 articles we have presently within them are likely to grow considerably I think now would be a good point to create regional templates for general topics like {{Qinghai-stub}} and {{Sichuan-stub}}. I'd imagine some are not easily organised by region and there will be a lot of uneveness towards the main cities like Beijing and Shanghai but I am certain a lot of them could be reorganised. At some point is may even me reasonable to create sub cats of this like {{Sichuan-bio-stub}} etc. but at present I doubt it would be worth it yet. I think it is owrthy creating the templates anyway and the geo stubs can also be sub categorised from the main provincial cats. Dr. Blofeld ^{White cat} 11:48, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

I think it may be better splitting this in the same way as other countries for now, splitting out -newspaper-, -sport- etc. I haven't loked at the category so I don't know what would be viable and what wouldn't but will try to look later on tonight. Waacstats (talk) 17:27, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

Don't want anything too localised but it would certianly be appropriate to have main stub categories for the huge regions of China. We have {{Tibet-stub}} after all!!

Dr B? I'm not saying I'm opposed to them but having had a look through China stubs (what a mess) I will add tidying up to my to do list. It seems that these categories would be subcats of Category:People's Republic of China stubs not Category:China stubs and that a number of the articles can easily be moved into other appropiate categories (does an article on the Beijing Olympics belong in a PRC-sport- cat or a Beijing- cat) Waacstats (talk) 12:32, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, you see now what I mean about it being in a mess? It needs work and organization I think. Dr. Blofeld ^{White cat} 12:48, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

Over 700 articles. I propose subdividing by state.

I think that's all (I count 50.)Gosox5555 (talk) 14:47, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

I'm not sure that splitting by state is the best way togo with this, maybe a split by period (also taking out all the -bio-, -geo- and -struct- stubs would help). Waacstats (talk) 15:05, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

Weak oppose I agree, I don't think it is necessary given that some history predates the existence of actual states and I do't see an overwhelming amount of stubs for each state. On average it works out as 14 articles per state. History would best be dealt with my time period. Dr. Blofeld ^{White cat} 16:27, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

I must say I agree - this isn't the best way to split this. A large number of US history stubs will almost certainly relate to the history of the country overall, rather than any specific state. If i were going to split them, I'd go by historical period (we already have a pre-Columbian stub, for instance). A US-20thcentury-history-stub, US-19thcentury-history-stub, and US-18thcentury-history-stub might be more useful. It's also worth noting that if we do go with a state-by-state split, many of the proposed names are incorrect - we use CamelCase for stub templates - with no spaces in state names. Grutness...wha? 23:06, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

Agree completely. By century in the US and you have my support. Dr. Blofeld ^{White cat} 09:15, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

Based on feedback, I propose in leue: {{US-20thcentury-history-stub}}, {{US-19thcentury-history-stub}}, {{US-18thcentury-history-stub}}, and possibly a {{US-17thcentury-history-stub}}. PS: What's CamelCase? Gosox5555 (talk) 02:28, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
- State names are written "NorthDakota", rather than "North Dakota" or "North-Dakota" when stub templates are made. Run together into one word with capitals where appropriate in the middle. Grutness...wha? 02:09, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
Will re-propose the revised stubs under August. Gosox5555 (talk) 23:01, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

upmerged template with more than 60 articles propose relevant category Category:Westmoreland County, Virginia geography stubs

Speedy support per nom - Waacstats, no? Grutness...wha? 01:03, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
Just wondering, I thought Virginia's abbreviation (on the templates) is VA not VI ??? or my US state abbreviations is not that good :)? --impact F = 17:28, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

Sorry that was me, a bit rushed on the proposal. And yes Impact having loked into it Virginia is VA not VI I copied the pattern that already existed so now we need someone/some bot to go through and change 100+ templates and edit 1000+ articles then delete 100+ redirects. Since Alai is no longer here anyone know of a bot that could do this? Waacstats (talk) 20:03, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

Give the number of articles we have and vastness of the topic I also propose the following:

Some countries in Latin America too:

Not so sure on these, the two european countries that alreadyhave categories are severley undersized and the fact the parent is only around 400, I think we may be better waiting till this gets a bit bigger and continueing with splitting indvidual countries out. On saying that this is a week oppose and am open to having my mind changed (through discussion or bribery)Waacstats (talk) 21:57, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

Mmm I see your point, I was just looking at Category:Croatian cuisine and seeing how many articles are not even stub tagged and sorted. There are likely to be a much greater number than 400 stubs. For example Hladetina. Best way is to look at the actual categories, the croatian one is practically viable I' am certain there are way more than 400 stubs. Just browse through the European cuisine categories and sub categories by country. Dr. Blofeld ^{White cat} 22:13, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

{{NewSouthWales-river-stub}} from this list here. Over 300 New South Wales river articles were mechanically created by AlbertHerring (talk · contribs). While there has been discussion about the appropriateness of this at the Australian Wikipedians' notice board, I think it is fairly safe to say that they are here for keeps. Given that, it is probably appropriate that they have their own stub template and category, especially as the {{NewSouthWales-geo-stub}} cat now has over 1,000 articles. The concern I have is that there does not seem to be a parent stub category for {{Australia-river-stub}} or even {{river-stub}}. Advice gratefully accepted. -- Mattinbgn\^talk 22:48, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

strong oppose. As has been mentioned here frequently in the past, geo-stubs aren't split by landform. This is the reason we have no overall {{river-stub}}, {{lake-stub}}, {{town-stub}}, {{mountain-stub}}, etc. The way that NSW should be split is the same way all other geographical regions are split - by smaller area - in this case, by county or group of counties. I'd certainly support a split of that form. Grutness...wha? 00:26, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Comment How do I split long skinny landforms that cross LGA boundaries? Do I duplicate across every LGA it crosses? How do I define regional boundaries? In Australia, states are too large and LGAs are too small to be reasonably useful for the purpose of stub sorting. Regional boundaries, including {{Riverina-geo-stub}} (which on reflection I should have opposed the creation of) are artificial and have no formal standing whatsover. Using them will lead to battles over whether an area is in let's say "South West Slopes" or "Central West". Perhaps if you point me to where this discussion has been held previously (most of us don't dwell in the details of stub creation) it might be easier to understand why there is what seems to me to an illogical opposition to a reasonable proposal. Why geographical features are lumped in together and every family of arthropod is split is, I must confess, beyond me. If it is seen as reasonable to create a mountain of stubs on a topic (and it appears to be), then those stubs need to be sorted into some sort of rational order. Simply saying "geo-stubs aren't split by landform" as if that was handed down on stone tablets isn't really a useful answer. -- Mattinbgn\^talk 02:59, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Up to four districts, separate stub templates. Any more than that, use the NSW one. That's the way it's done with rivers worldwide. As to previous discussions on the topic, there are numerous - mouintain-stub was even at one time used as a specific example of "what types not to create" at WP:STUB. Perhaps some examples may indicate past discussions on the subject. Grutness...wha? 01:58, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

Weak Support Seems as there are 300 stubs specifically on rivers and there appears to be people interested in expanding them I think we should do it. I wouldn't recommend doing this for everywhere obviously but sorting into districts would really take a lot of hard work sorting, especially as many rivers tracend multiple district barriers. Increasingly with a notable WP:Rivers and Wp:Mountains group there is a stronger case for developing specific categories. I know the convention is by geographical area and I fully support this but in areas whre there are a LOT of rivers like Brazil too etc I think it would be perfectly acceptable to have stub categories for rivers. We create new stub sub categories and templates everyday within a given genre yet we place every geography articles even though there may differ widely from waterfalls or rivers to towns in the same category. I support this in principle in the way that Grutness does but I think this would make sense in the current situation with New South Wales anyway. A lot of editors are not interested in towns for sintance but will gladly work on physical features such as rivers and lakes. This does NOT mean I want to Slovenia-lake-stub or anything all across wikipedia, where possible we should STICK to by area but in rare cases like this it makes more sense, especially as editors seem to want it to work through. Personally I don't mind so long as they develop as efficiently as possible. Dr. Blofeld ^{White cat} 08:54, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

Given the number of times we've had people jumping up and down saying "but there's a precedent!" (consider all the fuss we had with things like North Cyprus stubs and the like), I'd strongly - very very very strongly - ask you to reconsider this. hell, we don't even have an antarctica-glacier-stub - one of the times when it might seem perfectly logical to have one - since it would set an almighty precedent.

Done Verification of articles about their status as stubs is still needed. Also double-tagging with the appropriate geo-stubs needs verification. --Kslotte (talk) 15:44, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

Created {{ski-resort-stub}} with uppercase as first letter. Should lowercase be used when putting the template into articles? --Kslotte (talk) 15:44, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

In theory, it doesn't make any difference - the first letter of a template name is parsed as a capital whether it is one or not. In practice, it makes it easier for refinements later if common noun terms are left lower case; if we later need, say, a separate US-ski-resort-stub, then it will be a fraction less work to edit the articles if the "s" is already lower case. Grutness...wha? 01:14, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

Is there any reason for put AWB to work on putting these to lowercase? I will probably get a bot account for AWB (auto save possible). --Kslotte (talk) 17:21, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

Just checked the template and category - and was annoyed to notice that no-one pointed out the category name should have been singular.

There are 68 public universities in the Southern African Development Community (SADC) Most of these have their own wikipedia entryRdhenson (talk) 06:47, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

We have {{SouthAfrica-university-stub}} and other templates for countries outside of south africa. The convention is by country not institutional type. Dr. Blofeld ^{White cat} 10:44, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

(after ec) Are these all in South Africa, or in southern Africa generally? If they're in southern Africa but not all in one country, then it makes more sense to have them in the continent-wide category (i.e., Category:Africa university stubs),which - at 170-odd stubs, isn't really overfull. There'd be a very good case for upmerged country-specific templates, though (for example, {{Botswana-university-stub}} and {{Namibia-university-stub}}) all linking to the continent-wide category. If they're all in RSA, then there's already a single-country category for that. Grutness...wha? 10:46, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the responses. The universities I was referring to are the universities in the 15 different countries of the SADC, which does include South Africa, but also 14 other countries! The reason I had proposed a separate stub is that this would be in line with economic/political developments - the African Union, NEPAD support a regional approach to issues like higher education and the SADC is the local regional bloc. However I take the point that Wikipedia is not currently set up like that. I see that South African Universities are (the only) sub category of Africa University stubs - is Grutness above suggesting that {{Botswana-university-stub}} and {{Namibia-university-stub}})etc all be made sub categories in the same way as South Africa? It seems a good idea to me and I would be happy to try and do this for the 14 SADC countries, not quite sure how to do it, and whether I would need permission? Maybe some one can advise?Rdhenson (talk) 12:08, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

I'd support the creation of the Botswana and Namibia templates as with any others for Africa, I wasn't sure whether we had any made yet. In some African countries there are a notable number of universities and colleges. If there are over 60 stubs for the SADC countries I'd support a creation Category:Southern Africa university stubs using upmerged templates by country. Dr. Blofeld ^{White cat} 16:37, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

Note that the SADC region may not exactly coincide with what we use for Southern Africa - we'll need to check that. Grutness...wha? 00:32, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Forgive my ignorance - I am not quite sure what is meant by "upmerging templates"? From what I have seen most universities are linked to existing templates for their respective countries eg{{Botswana-university-stub}}{{Namibia-university-stub}} etc and many, but by no means all are also linked to {{Africa-university-stubs}}. Would "upmerging" the templates basically mean doing away with the individual country-university-stubs and replacing them with eg Southern Africa, East Africa, West Africa?Rdhenson (talk) 15:37, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Upmerging means creating templates for all the countries, but having them feed into more general categories until such time as there are enough for a separate dedicated category (60 per normal stub-sorting requirements). Where there are enough stubs for separate country-level categories, they can be separately proposed (and would almost certainly be speediable) - if there aren't enough, they'd remain upmerged. So, for example, {{Angola-university-stub}} would categorise articles into Category:Angola stubs and either Category:Africa university stubs or a new Category:Southern Africa university stubs; if it ever has 60 stubs using it as a template, then a new Category:Angola university stubs would be created. Grutness...wha? 02:05, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

Many other orders of insects have stub templates, {{ant-stub}}, {{beetle-stub}}, {{butterfly-stub}}, {{damselfly-stub}}, {{dragonfly-stub}}, et cetera, and Category:Earwigs and its subcats are growing at a relatively-fast pace. It already contains about 150 pages, and a good percentage of those are stubs (about 140 of them). Seeing how it is generally appropriate to use alternatives to {{insect-stub}}, and how Category:Insect stubs is getting larger and larger, I think that {{earwig-stub}}, and the associated cat, Category:Earwig stubs, is a good idea. The general rule would be that every article in Category:Earwigs (and subcats) with the template {{insect-stub}} already in it should be given the {{earwig-stub}} template. Is there any support for this idea? The Earwig (Talk | Contribs) 01:49, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

Seems reasonable to me - assuming you're right about the numbers. If there are fewer than 60, then I support the template as an upmerged type - but if there are the 140 you suggest then a category as well makes sense. Grutness...wha? 01:37, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

I ran AWB over the air disaster categories this weekend, and think I caught all of the articles that were double-stubbed with {{aviation-stub}} and {{disaster-stub}}. A cursory check reveals somewhere in the neighborhood of 100 marked {{aviation-accident-stub}}, which should be enough for a new category, no? --User:AlbertHerring ^{Io son l'orecchio e tu la bocca: parla!} 15:30, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Specifically, changing {{Aviation-stub}} to one of its subtypes wherever appropriate.

I propose for a 'sellsumerism' stub to be created. It is a term used to describe the act of individuals becoming part time entrepreneurs and earning money through selling aspects of their daily lives. A 'sellsumer' earns money, for example, by renting out a parking space in their home driveway to a third party. The act is becoming more and more apparent during our global recession.

Support idea not to sure about the template name, there are a number of items lised on the disamig page Comsat. Waacstats (talk) 09:51, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

I think that this is the only one listed on that page which is likely to require a stub category. The Asian committee doesn't seem to have any descendant articles (and if a stub template was needed COMSATS-stub would be more appropriate anyway), COMSAT has the possibility for a few descendants, but I am not currently aware of any stub categorisation by individual company. Anyway, most of the potential descendant articles are covered by corporation-stub and spacecraft-stub (the ones covered by spacecraft-stub are actually communications satellites, so would be covered by this proposal). If a stub were required for the band, it would use the full name, so that is not an issue, and again I don't think such a type is likely anyway. I don't think the UNIX feature even has its own article, let alone a requirement for a stub category. I'm fairly confident that communications satellites are the most common usage of "comsat" anyway. If there is still an issue then the name is associable, but I don't see any problems, and a shorter name would be preferable to a long one (the alternative would be Template:Communications-satellite-stub (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)). --G W… 10:15, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

I must admit I wondered about the name myself. I think that - though it's a longer name - your suggested alternative is better. It also allows us to use the name satellite-stub as a basic naming element for other types if we need them for any reason. As for splits by company, the only place where I know of that being done is in entertainment, where we have things like BBC-stub. I doubt we;'d ever need to go that far for satellites - some other splitting axis like nationality might be a more logical split anyway. Grutness...wha? 23:40, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
