==={{tl|Iowa-geo-stub}} / {{cl|Iowa geography stubs}} split===

This category has one populated sub-cat ({{cl|Iowa Registered Historic Place stubs}}) with 400+ articles; the parent category has 1,364 articles. I propose we create templates for counties per [[List of counties in Iowa]], with categories where appropriate and upmerged templates otherwise.

:Certainly, although given there are 99 counties and 1200 articles, that's an average of 13~ per county -- nowhere near enough to warrant individual categories in the majority of cases. As such it's unlikely to actually diffuse the category very well. Longer term I think it would be best to split them up by region a la [[:Category:California geography stubs]], as I've come to conclude wrt Minnesota below...! The metro areas are probably the obvious place to start (if for no other reason than they tend to have more articles, and by extension more stubs, than rural areas), but beyond that I don't really know. Perhaps worth getting some input from [[WP:IOWA]]?
