==Proposals, September 2012==

Please check how many articles qualify for a stub type before proposing it.

Line 4 ⟶ 13:

If (after approval) you create a stub type, please be sure to add it to the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Stub_sorting/Stub_types|list of stub types]]. This page will be archived in its entirety once all discussions have been closed; there is no need to move them to another page.

=== NEWEuropean PROPOSALSsports stubs ===

{{sfp create}}

Propose {{cl|European sport stubs}} <small>(corrected spelling per severo)</small> primarily as a container category for the three European sports team stub categories which are currently direct children of {{cl|Europe stubs)), as well as as an upmerge target for any national sports stubs directly upmerging to their national category. (eg {{tl|Monaco-sports-venue-stub}}).

Also, for completeness, {{tl|Europe-sport-stub}} to add articles directly to the category - a quick glance shows there are two sports articles in {{cl|Europe stubs}} and another two in {{cl|Sports stubs}}, there are probably others scattered around. --[[User:Qetuth|Qetuth]] ([[User talk:Qetuth|talk]]) 04:26, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

<!--Important: If you wish to propose the creation of a stub ARTICLE you've come to the wrong place. If you don't have a username yourself, please go to [[WP:AFC]] for proposing a new article. If you already have a username, you can create the article yourself. If you don't know how, add *{{tl|Helpme}} to your user talk page to request help from other editors. This page only deals with stub TEMPLATES and CATEGORIES; we cannot help you with creating articles. -->

<!--PLEASE READ [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Stub_sorting/Proposals#Proposing_new_stub_types_-_procedure]] BEFORE PROPOSING A STUB TYPE. THE NUMBER OF ARTICLES THAT QUALIFY HAS A SIGNIFICANT EFFECT ON THE RESULT OF YOUR PROPOSAL.-->

:We have countries at {{cl|Foo sport stubs}} so I propose the naming of {{cl|European sport stubs}}. Container category for all European-level sport categories - the team categories, {{cl|European sportspeople stubs}}, {{cl|European football competition stubs}}, {{cl|European sports venue stubs}} and {{cl|Foo sport stubs}} for each country (perhaps there are others as well). I can see there being a need for the template as well for the small number of stubs.

<!--Please add any new proposals for new stub templates / categories immediately after this line using header level 3-->

::Hmm, it hadn't occured to me to make it a proper parent category for all those, but I like it. Good idea --[[User:Qetuth|Qetuth]] ([[User talk:Qetuth|talk]]) 14:26, 5 October 2012 (UTC)

===Split of {{cl|Carabinae stubs}}===

{{sfp create}}

Not very many genera in this subfamily, but several of the few that are here contain a number of species. Propose the following new templates and categories:

* {{tl|Calosoma-stub}} / {{cl|Calosoma stubs}} - 167

* {{tl|Carabus-stub}} / {{cl|Carabus stubs}} - Over 800 species. Over 200 already have articles (primarily stubs).

* {{tl|Cychropsis-stub}} - 34

* {{tl|Cychrus-stub}} / {{cl|Cychrus stubs}} - 127 (Still in the oversized {{cl|Carabidae stubs}})

===Middle-earth stubs===

{{sfp create}}

In sorting the stub-class articles in {{tl|WikiProject Fictional characters}}, I have noticed a lot of Middle-Earth character articles that are stubs. Some of them have been merged into character lists and just need their talk pages updated, but I see a need for one or more stub tags to better classify these articles.

{{cl|Middle-earth}} does not currently have a category for stubs. Therefore I propose the creation of:

* {{tl|Middle-earth-stub}} or {{tl|ME-stub}}. This would eventually link to {{cl|Middle-earth stubs}} once populated.

* And since most of the affected articles are fictional characters, there should also be a {{tl|ME-char-stub}} that directs to the same category initially, and maybe linked to {{cl|Middle-earth character stubs}} once populated. Please let me know which stub names to go with, so that these stub articles can be better classified. [[User:Fortdj33|Fortdj33]] ([[User talk:Fortdj33|talk]]) 13:51, 14 September 2012 (UTC)

:'''Support with changes'''. I would approve of a {{tl|MiddleEarth-stub}}, as this is not really intended as a subcategory for an {{tl|earth-stub}}, and {{tl|ME-stub}} would be unclear (wouldn't want to confuse Middle Earth with Maine). I would further suggest initially upmerging to {{cl|Fictional universe stubs}}. For the characters, I would use {{tl|MiddleEarth-char-stub}}, upmerging to {{cl|Fictional character stubs}}, with a second upmerge (for the sake of keeping them together) to {{cl|Fictional universe stubs}}. [[User:Dawynn|Dawynn]] ([[User talk:Dawynn|talk]]) 15:32, 15 September 2012 (UTC)

::{{Done}}. Thanks for the suggestions in changes of the stub names! So far, I am only through the F's alphabetically in sorting fictional characters articles, so I will wait until 60+ articles are using {{tl|MiddleEarth-char-stub}} before creating {{cl|Middle-earth character stubs}}.

===More speedy sports stubs===

{{sfp create}}

A bit of a mixed bag of sport stubs to start the month off, templates already exist and are used on 60+ articles

*{{Tl|Japan-golf-bio-stub}} - {{cl|Japanese golf biography stubs}}

*{{Tl|SouthKorea-boxing-bio-stub}} - {{cl|South KoreeanKorean boxing biography stubs}}

*{{Tl|PRChina-weightlifting-bio-stub}} - {{cl|Chinese weightlifting biography stubs}}

should tidy a few of the bigger categories up for a bit. [[User:Waacstats|Waacstats]] ([[User talk:Waacstats|talk]]) 11:05, 4 September 2012 (UTC)

:'''Speedy''' again... --[[User:Qetuth|Qetuth]] ([[User talk:Qetuth|talk]]) 13:37, 10 September 2012 (UTC)
