Tidy up in football biography stubs
I have looked through a number of the larger fooian football biography stubs and note that we have splits for some positions but not others. To complete this split in the relative countries I propose the following templates with the categories if they reach 60 articles.
- {{Switzerland-footy-midfielder-stub}} - Category:Swiss football midfielder stubs
- {{Switzerland-footy-forward-stub}} - Category:Swiss football forward stubs
- {{Albania-footy-goalkeeper-stub}} - Category:Albanian football goalkeeper stubs
- {{Albania-footy-defender-stub}} - Category:Albanian football defender stubs
- {{Albania-footy-midfielder-stub}} - Category:Albanian football midfielder stubs
- {{Finland-footy-defender-stub}} - Category:Finnish football defender stubs
- {{Finland-footy-midfielder-stub}} - Category:Finnish football midfielder stubs
- {{Finland-footy-forward-stub}} - Category:Finnish football forward stubs
- {{Greece-footy-midfielder-stub}} - Category:Greek football midfielder stubs
- {{Greece-footy-forward-stub}} - Category:Greek football forward stubs
- {{Wales-footy-goalkeeper-stub}} - Category:Welsh football goalkeeper stubs
- {{Wales-footy-midfielder-stub}} - Category:Welsh football midfielder stubs

- {{Indonesia-footy-midfielder-stub}} - Category:Indonesian football midfielder stubs
- {{Indonesia-footy-forward-stub}} - Category:Indonesian football forward stubs
This should reduce the size of some of the larger categories and I will have a look at the rest later. Waacstats (talk) 17:33, 20 September 2020 (UTC)
Split of Conservative MP for England stubs
A few potential splits that come to mind, by constituency, by decade of birth or by parliament. For most parliaments we could probably have a category but i think this could lead to massive amounts of multiple stubbing where MPs have sat in numerous parliaments, by constituency looks to be under categorized in the permanent categories so I suggest by decade of birth
- {{England-Conservative-UK-MP-1760s-stub}} - we have 6
- {{England-Conservative-UK-MP-1770s-stub}} - Category:Conservative MP for England, 1770s birth stubs
- {{England-Conservative-UK-MP-1780s-stub}} - Category:Conservative MP for England, 1780s birth stubs
- {{England-Conservative-UK-MP-1790s-stub}} - Category:Conservative MP for England, 1790s birth stubs
- {{England-Conservative-UK-MP-1800s-stub}} - Category:Conservative MP for England, 1800s birth stubs
- {{England-Conservative-UK-MP-1810s-stub}} - Category:Conservative MP for England, 1810s birth stubs
- {{England-Conservative-UK-MP-1820s-stub}} - Category:Conservative MP for England, 1820s birth stubs
- {{England-Conservative-UK-MP-1830s-stub}} - Category:Conservative MP for England, 1830s birth stubs
- {{England-Conservative-UK-MP-1840s-stub}} - Category:Conservative MP for England, 1840s birth stubs
- {{England-Conservative-UK-MP-1850s-stub}} - Category:Conservative MP for England, 1850s birth stubs
- {{England-Conservative-UK-MP-1860s-stub}} - Category:Conservative MP for England, 1860s birth stubs
- {{England-Conservative-UK-MP-1870s-stub}} - Category:Conservative MP for England, 1870s birth stubs
- {{England-Conservative-UK-MP-1880s-stub}} - Category:Conservative MP for England, 1880s birth stubs
- {{England-Conservative-UK-MP-1890s-stub}} - Category:Conservative MP for England, 1890s birth stubs
- {{England-Conservative-UK-MP-1900s-stub}} - Category:Conservative MP for England, 1900s birth stubs
- {{England-Conservative-UK-MP-1910s-stub}} - Category:Conservative MP for England, 1910s birth stubs
- {{England-Conservative-UK-MP-1920s-stub}} - Category:Conservative MP for England, 1920s birth stubs
- {{England-Conservative-UK-MP-1930s-stub}} - Category:Conservative MP for England, 1930s birth stubs
- {{England-Conservative-UK-MP-1940s-stub}} - Category:Conservative MP for England, 1940s birth stubs
- {{England-Conservative-UK-MP-1950s-stub}} - Category:Conservative MP for England, 1950s birth stubs
- {{England-Conservative-UK-MP-1960s-stub}} - Category:Conservative MP for England, 1960s birth stubs
- {{England-Conservative-UK-MP-1970s-stub}} - Category:Conservative MP for England, 1970s birth stubs
- {{England-Conservative-UK-MP-1980s-stub}} - Category:Conservative MP for England, 1980s birth stubs
- {{England-Conservative-UK-MP-1990s-stub}} - we have 2
Obviously categories only for those template which manage to pass the 60 mark. Waacstats (talk) 17:33, 20 September 2020 (UTC)
Split of French politician stubs
Had a look at Category:French politician stubs this oversized politician category as well, looks like the following are viable
- {{France-politician-LREM-stub}} - Category:La République En Marche! politician stubs
- {{France-politician-MoDem-stub}} - Category:Democratic Movement (France) politician stubs
- {{France-politician-RPV-stub}} - Category:Radical Party (France) politician stubs
- {{France-politician-RPR-stub}} - Category:Rally for the Republic politician stubs
- {{France-politician-UDI-stub}} - Category:Union of Democrats and Independents politician stubs
This should reduce the category below 800. Waacstats (talk) 17:33, 20 September 2020 (UTC)
Split of Australian politician stubs
Already have some by party splits some more which should breach the threshold and may get this below 800 are:
- {{Australia-FreeTrade-politician-stub}} - Category:Free Trade Party politician stubs
- {{Australia-Independent-politician-stub}} - Category:Australian Independent politician stubs
- {{Australia-Nationalist-politician-stub}} - Category:Nationalist Party (Australia) politician stubs
We will just need to look at the Category:Australian Labor Party politician stubs then, as this is also oversized. Waacstats (talk) 17:33, 20 September 2020 (UTC)
Scotland football bios
Category:Scottish football forward stubs (808) and Category:Scottish football midfielder stubs (808) and given that Category:Scottish football biography stubs is at 644 I guess there are more to go in. I suggest splitting by dob as per the defenders

Categories only where the templates pass 60 Waacstats (talk) 23:24, 18 September 2020 (UTC)

Split of Pakistani railway station stubs
Category:Pakistani railway station stubs is oversized, anyone any better idea than the traditional split by province.
- {{AzadKashmir-railstation-stub}} - Category:Azad Kashmir railway station stubs
- {{Balochistan-railstation-stub}} - Category:Balochistan railway station stubs or Category:Balochistan, Pakistan railway station stubs
- {{GilgitBaltistan-railstation-stub}} - Category:Gilgit-Baltistan railway station stubs
- {{KhyberPakhtunkhwa-railstation-stub}} - Category:Khyber Pakhtunkhwa railway station stubs
- {{PunjabPK-railstation-stub}} - Category:Punjab, Pakistan railway station stubs
- {{Sindh-railstation-stub}} - Category:Sindh railway station stubs
I note that the geo-stub category has Balochistan (Pakistan) were as the article is at Balochistan, Pakistan do we need a rename of the geo-stub cat. Waacstats (talk) 13:46, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
- Support I did this for India in February-March 2017, splitting by state if there were 60+ qualifying articles. See Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals/2017/February#Subdividing Indian railway station stubs. But you suggest six stub templates, and apparently Pakistan has four provinces; I expect that you are including territories, of which there are three, for a total of seven potential stub templates - there would be one for each of: Azad Kashmir; Balochistan; Gilgit-Baltistan; Islamabad; Khyber Pakhtunkhwa; Punjab and Sindh. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 18:53, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
- That will teach me to just use the geo category as reference. Can I add {{Islamabad-station-stub}} - Category:Islamabad railway station stubs or do you think that {{IslamabadCT-station-stub}} - Category:Islamabad Capital Territory railway station stubs would be better? Waacstats (talk) 20:43, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
- No opinion on the geographic question, but the last template mentioned, if created, should be formatted as {{Islamabad-railstation-stub}} or {{IslamabadCT-railstation-stub}}. Just saying. Her Pegship (?) 16:31, 19 September 2020 (UTC)

Split of German noble stubs
Another oversized category, based on a play with petscan the following should be viable:
- {{Germany-margrave-stub}} - Category:Margraves of Germany stubs (70)
- {{Germany-count-stub}} - Category:Counts of Germany stubs (290)
- {{Germany-countess-stub}} - Category:German countess stubs (59)
- {{Germany-duke-stub}} - Category:Dukes of Germany stubs (347)
- {{Germany-duchess-stub}} - Category:German duchess stubs (62)

Speedy Nepal district stub cats
German airport stubs
In order to add to the categories French/Italian/Russian/Turkish and UK airport stubs, this new cat would fit into the Category:European airport stubs.
The same applies to Category:Germany transport stubs, in which "Germany rail transport stubs" and "Germany road stubs" are already existing.
In addition, there would be a certain degree of relief of the current Category:Germany transport stubs, which is currently parent to over 100 articles. --Uli Elch (talk) 10:06, 8 September 2020 (UTC)
- Category:European airport stubs is oversized at 569 articles, but {{Germany-airport-stub}} is only linked to 36 of those articles. I suggest the template remain upmerged for now, until such time as it's used on 60+ articles. It might help for someone to assign more specific templates to the European airport stubs articles; {{Europe-airport-stub}} is used on 284 articles, and I bet some of them are in Germany.
