German football stub templates

Speedy proposal. German footballers stubs are split into both position and decade, but these three upmerged templates are missing.

How many pages will these be used on? How are they stubbed at the moment? I take it that the intention is to have upmerged categories like {{Germany-footy-defender-1880s-stub}}/{{Germany-footy-defender-1900s-stub}}/{{Germany-footy-midfielder-1880s-stub}}/{{Germany-footy-midfielder-1890s-stub}}/{{Germany-footy-midfielder-1900s-stub}}/{{Germany-footy-forward-1900s-stub}}. --Redrose64 (talk) 22:30, 30 January 2014 (UTC)

Speedy proposal. Considering that {{US-stage-actor-stub}} redirects over to {{US-theat-actor-stub}}, we already have two established sub-categories, along with a few other templates to add here. Will pick up:

There is a huge Category:Ancient Roman people stubs with over 550 stubs. I propose the creation of a stub template {{Roman-gens-stub}} and its corresponding Category:Roman gentes stubs - please see this scan: 76 stubs. Regards, --Fadesga (talk) 22:31, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

Category:Arctiidae stubs is well over 3000 articles, and the permanent itself is similarly oversized. Splitting this category into subfamilies results in two oversized subfamilies. There are a few genera that could support a category of their own, but I would propose a tribe-level split to help tame these categories. Propose all of the following templates, with categories for any that pass the 60 article barrier. My intent is to also build similar tribe-level permanent categories.

I propose Category:Texas high school stubs / {{Texas-high-school-stub}} and Category:Texas school district stubs / {{Texas-school-district-stub}} to deal with the bulk of this parent category that has almost a thousand pages. EricEnfermero HOWDY! 20:59, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

  • Support 2x templates and 2x categories. A quick glance shows that there are indeed well over 900 articles, and that the majority are School Districts, with High Schools a close second. I take it that Middle Schools and Elementary Schools will remain where they are. --Redrose64 (talk) 21:47, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
  • I thought I might start with the two big ones, since the terminology in Texas gets confusing around middle school, intermediate school and junior high school - and since there are fewer of these articles. EricEnfermero HOWDY! 01:32, 16 January 2014 (UTC)

I propose Category:Prehistoric insect stubs/{{paleo-insect-stub}} - a quick scan finds 129 stubs. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 17:04, 12 January 2014 (UTC)
