In order to maintain some consistency in the naming of stub templates and their corresponding stub categories, several conventions for stub naming are used in [[Wikipedia:Stub types for deletion|stub deletion/merging/renaming]], for [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals|new stub proposals]], and by ''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting|WikiProject Stub sorting]]'' while cleaning up stub organization.
