===Subdividing Indian railway station stubs===

{{cl|Indian railway station stubs}} is now standing at 897 articles and one stub template, {{tlx|India-railstation-stub}}; there are no sub-categories. India has [[states and territories of India|29 states and 7 Union territories]]; I don't know of any grouping of states that would reduce the number of subdivisions below 36. Not all have railway stations ({{cl|Railway stations in India by state}} has 31 direct sub-categories, of which 28 are for states and three are for the Union territories of Chandigarh, Delhi‎ and Puducherry‎; there is no category for Sikkim state or four of the Union territories), so I propose to create a stub template for each of the states or Union territories where railway stations exist and where there is at least one stub article already. Initially they will all be upmerged; but once we have determined how many articles can use each of the new stub template, we can create stub categories for some of the states. Much like the direct subcats and upmerged templates of {{cl|India geography stubs}}. --[[User:Redrose64|<span style="color:#a80000; background:#ffeeee; text-decoration:inherit">Red</span>rose64]] &#x1f339; ([[User talk:Redrose64|talk]]) 19:34, 21 February 2017 (UTC)
