{{Minnesota-geo-stub}} split
Very large stub cat at the moment. I just finished populating all the upmerged stubs and there's still 1,255 sitting in there (although now only 250~ of them use the generic, parent stub). There is now one which can be speedily given its own category: {{CookCountyMN-geo-stub}}, which has 68 transclusions and so is eligible under S2. None of the others are, however, but I still think we need some to be given their own subcats, at least. There were a few more with 40+, but most sit in the region of 20~ transclusions. Is that enough to warrant their own subcat?
Now, there are already two subcats based on regions (the Twin Cities metropolitan area and the Arrowhead region) into which several counties are sorted, which would be a useful model to follow, but I'm not really seeing many other suitable ones to use as they aren't defined on county lines. Would having 62 subcats of the main area suffice?
There are also seven counties without any stubs at all: the counties of Dodge, Mille Lacs, Morrison, Nobles, Stevens, Traverse, Waseca. While some won't be particularly well populated I still think having them upmerged into {{Minnesota-geo-stub}} would help for futureproofing. (And though I don't have specific numbers, there were plenty for Morrison and a fair few for Mille Lacs & Waseca, which would mean the tags were more densely populated than some of the existing upmerged ones...!) Any input on how to proceed (other than the obvious speedy candidate) would be most welcome. Buttons to Push Buttons (talk | contribs) 14:46, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
Aussie Rules competition stubs
There's a pretty big intersection of Category:Sports event stubs and Category:Australian rules football stubs. The second of those makes plain that there are loads; the wmflabs tool says 104 applicable stubs at this point in time. I believe {{AFL-competition-stub}} would fit our naming scheme? (Haven't dealt with stubsorting for yeaaars so bear with me if I'm mistaken :)) Buttons to Push Buttons (talk | contribs) 12:13, 26 October 2015 (UTC)
