Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Stub types

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Ceyockey (talk | contribs) at 11:20, 13 May 2005 (People by nation or region: added reference to canada-politician-stub to reflect working stub hierarchy). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

These are all the stub messages/templates that I know of as of 05:41, 2 Mar 2005 (UTC). if you know of any that I have missed, please feel free to add them, but please use the same format as I have used. This page is a supplement to Wikipedia:Stub categories.

Notes

List order

Please note when adding new templates to this list that the order within each category is as follows

  1. general stub message
  2. alphabetically by type of article sorted (not alphabetically by template!)

Stub anatomy and the stub category relationships

Each stub-type has both a stub template (that includes the stub message and stub icon) and a stub category (into which all articles bearing the stub template are sorted). When creating or deleting a stub template, the category must also be addressed. This page reflects both a listing of all stub templates and the graph of stub category relationships. Each stub template is listed with a tally of articles bearing the template one time; this one listing appears in its primary graph ___location, while secondary graph locations are indicated by parenthetical "see also" references that contain intra-page links.

A note on stub icons

Several of the stub categories relate to controversial issues For this reason, many of the icons have been chosen carefully so as not to cause offense or appear biased. If you wish to change any stub icon, please clear the icon change at both Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Criteria and at any WikiProject associated with the stub category first.

A note on the numbers

This is an experiment, a test. The number of stubs has been pulled manually in a snapshot and binned into one of several numerical categories: <10, <25, <50, <100, <200 (<1 page), and by hundred from there until <800. Beyond this, the number of pages in the category are shown in bold, starting with 5 pages (i.e., between 801 and 1000 stubs). This gives less information but is faster to gather and maybe easier to assess. This is subject to pretty severe rounding error, but that's ok... how good will it be to see a category move from 6pg to 5pg, for instance! What's more category sizes are in a constant state of flux due to new additions and articles being enlarged to beyond stub status. Not all categories have yet been counted.
