m ROBOT: Template subst per WP:SUBST
Line 31:
****** As I wrote earlier, a hand count revealed around 67 bio stubs in Cyprus-stub. I suggest we use the official flag of the Republic of Cyprus (the vast majority of TC's want to be united, anyway) and include both the TRNC and the RC under it, as well as the diaspora (where I am guessing most notable TRNC soccer players are)--[[User:Thomas.macmillan|Thomas.macmillan]] 18:22, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
******I ''very strongly'' advise that the flag not be used. You might want to have a read of [[Template talk:Cyprus-stub]], to start with, and I can point to a quite a number of other talk pages where that particular battle raged.

Line 57:
I'm been creating a couple of new Hawaiian roads as of late and I'm in the process of creating some more. Unfortunately, there's isn't any stub for Hawaii roads and I've been putting them under the US road stubs. I'm considering creating a Wikiproject for Hawaii roads to get people involved with the creation and formation of roads in the state of Hawaii so this is the first step to get the process going. If you need a image stub for the Hawaii road stub, ask [[User:TwinsMetsFan|TwinsMetsFan]] for assistance. [[User:Spongefan|Spongefan]] 17:56, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
*Please create the template at {{tl|Hawaii-road-stub}}, per the stub naming conventions. Are there 60 of these at present? If not, upmerging to a regional category would be better for the time being would be better than a separate category. Otherwise, sounds sensible enough. [[User:Alai|Alai]] 21:07, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

***Come to that, if the frogs are going to be re-templatised by family, it would seem fairly reasonable to have the frog family templates feed into a {{cl|frog stubs}}, but to skip the generic {{tl|frog-stub}} template. [[User:Alai|Alai]] 20:47, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
****Note, the tree frog and toad permcats do not correspond to a single family. The old-world tree frogs have been split out to a separate family from the rest but that category contains both and the toad category by its own admission contains not just the Bufonidae, but also other frog species commonly called toads. The differences probably aren't enough to warrant not creating templates, but they do mean that I'm strongly opposed to creating a {{tl|toad-stub}} and opposed (but not strongly or weakly, just opposed) to creating a {{tl|treefrog-stub}}, even as redirects. I don't mind {{tl|frog-stub}} since [[Anura]] itself is a redirect to [[Frog]] and there are several small families that will never have even 30+ stubs as there are fewer than 30 species in them. <span style="font-family:cursive">[[User:Caerwine|Caerwine]]</span> [[User_talk:Caerwine|<small style="font-family:sans-serif;color:darkred">Caer’s whines</small>]] 00:17, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

===Split of sportspeople stubs===
Line 150:
I suggest a split of the sub categories of sportspeople stubs in a similar way to people stubs i.e {{Cl|Sportspeople stubs by nationality}} and {{Cl|Sportspeople stubs by sport}} as the number of subcats is getting larger (currently 49 and 6 further proposals below) and the order more difficult to keep seperate. It would match more closely with the list of stub types which is split in this way. The only subcat that doesn't fit in either would be {{Cl|Olympic medalist stubs}} which I would propose remains a subcat of the main category. [[User:Waacstats|Waacstats]] 22:48, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

===Medieval music stubs===
Line 174:
**Agreed about some of the articles never getting longer than stub length--I asked on Wikiproject::Biography about articles like this and didn't get a response. They're not stubs (in the sense that anyone could do a little work and add to them), nor are they start class even, but they're definitely not B or A class by their definitions. As far as other things go: I'm not sure how to do what Alai proposes, but it sounds like that could be a good idea.
***Basically it'd just mean creating a number of separate stub templates, as usual, but giving them all the {{cl|medieval music stubs}} category, until such time as they're "big enough to be out on their own". (i.e. keeping them upmerged until they're past the creation threshold, as we say in the local jargon). I sympathise about the "permastubs": this seems to be becoming an issue in all sorts of areas. One possible remedy is merging, but how well that's likely to work for medieval musicians (unless a given group are truly closely related in some obvious way) seems unclear. Maybe it's a sign that wikipedia's getting "full"?(!) [[User:Alai|Alai]] 19:04, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

{{sfp top|deleted}}
Line 307:
:Okay. To cut a long story as short as I can and to combine comments from here and SFD, part of the problem is with the geo-stub, yes, and Maharashtra-geo-stub does need splitting. When it is split (which will probably be very soon) it will almost certainly be split by district. As to a non-geo type for Pune, the main problem is the name of the city and the district are the same. To call it Pune-stub would therefore be confusing, as would calling it Pune-city-stub (which by stub naming would indicate a stub for articles on cities in Pune District). {{tl|PuneCity-stub}} would get round that, and would be used double-stubbed (i.e., articles would receive that and another stub template - for example a stub on a university in Pune would receive both Pune-stub and India-university-stub). The main question that remains is whether a separate PuneCity-stub would have enough stubs if a Pune-geo-stub was used for all articles on geography in Pune District, since it is usual in those cases not to double-stub an article with the city stub (places in New York City, for instance, get NewYork-geo-stub - NY State's geostub - but not NYC-stub).

:::{{tl|criminologist-stub}} could be merged into {{tl|criminology-stub}}. {{tl|law-enforcement-stub}}, {{tl|forensics-stub}}, and {{tl|prison-stub}} would be subcategories of {{tl|criminal-justice-stub}}. If really necessary, I could probably find 30-60 stubs to create for each... the topic is that underrepresented. But don't have the time to do that now, and it's better to do them more gradually. And such arbitrary requirements are just that... arbitrary. For now, I just won't bother tagging them as stubs, because lumping all these together under {{tl|crime-stub}}, especially for criminology topics, is not useful for people working on the articles. --[[User:Aude|Aude]] <small>([[User talk:Aude|talk]])</small> 21:49, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
:::: I think the first task is to sort the crime stub articles into the 5 (or more) existing categories, then see how many are have left over, since Carewine mentioned there are 450 undersorted crime stubs, a good sort may clean it right up into good condition again?

===Film terminology stub===

*'''Support''' We do have several stubs under film-stub that could do with this sub sorting. I am not sure about the stub-type name. I leave it for someone more experienced to decide. [[User:Hoverfish|Hoverfish]] <small>[[User talk:Hoverfish|Talk]]</small> 22:53, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
*'''Support'''. As for the name, we do use X-term-stub for some things such as geographical terms (and I think the same for geology). I realise they're hardly that closely related to film, but at least it gives a precedent for that type of stub name. Perhaps a {{tl|film-term-stub}} with a redirect at {{tl|video-term-stub}}, leading into {{cl|Film and video terminology stubs}}?
