{{American-bio-stub}} (redirect)

[edit]

The naming is a little rough, and the category is under-populated, though it could probably receive a few articles from Category:Quebec geography stubs, which is edging towards a split anyway. In my opinion, this one should be replaced by something cleaner. Mindmatrix 18:41, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Aside: this could be populated using entries found at: List of Quebec City boroughs. Mindmatrix 18:43, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
i suggest QuebecCity-stub. at the moment it looks like its for cities in quebec province. BL Lacertae - kiss the lizard 01:08, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

{{ghost town stub}} and children!

[edit]

Created on 26 August, but I don't remember a proposal, used on 29 articles. Other material is named "HongKong-". We also have {{HK-gov-bio-stub}} / Category:Hong Kong political people stubs around which is also small. If the category is to be deleted, please keep the -politician template to avoid the normal problem with double-stubbing. Valentinian (talk) / (contribs) 11:28, 13 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest these be taken to SFD for upmerger, and that someone try to impress on Instantnood that it's really not a good plan to use WSS's banner on one's creations if one is going to make no attempt to follow the size guidelines, the precedents for stub templates names (obviously these don't count, being mere "head counts" of the ill-informed, since they don't concur with his own infalliable wisdom), much less the courtesy of a mention at /P.

Agree. I'm also a bit interested in why this category is a child of Category:Asian politician stubs but not of Category:Chinese politician stubs. I'm quite sure Prince Charles handed Hong Kong over to the PRC. Btw, given the size of this material, I don't see the point in Category:Hong Kong political people stubs, nor in it having two templates: {{HongKong-poli-bio-stub}}, {{HongKong-gov-bio-stub}}. At least one of these have to go, but probably both of them. Valentinian (talk) / (contribs) 20:22, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I've no objection to the extra templates (aside from all the Heckler und Koch stuff), but I agree on both the parenting, and the category size. Given that he's on probation for just this sort of "distance Hong Kong from the PRC in any way I can get away with" nonsense, if it happens again I'm going to flag it up in regards to the arbcom ruling.

I've just sent this to WP:SFD for sorting out. ~ Amalas rawr =^_^= 16:30, 21 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This looks like over-stubbing to me. I propose it be deleted. It also seems more broadcasting related then Television programme related (of which it is a subcat now) TheDJ (talkcontribsWikiProject Television) 22:19, 21 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • This one was kept after an SFD debate a year ago, when the WikiProject involved assured us of how rapidly growing the stub category was... nine stubs in a year doesn't seem rapidly growing to me, though - this one should definitely be taken back to WP:SFD for another discussion... Grutness...wha? 00:17, 22 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Just found this today, but it is well scoped and has over 60 articles. It seems quite sensible, so it's listed on WP:STUBS. I did have to some minor cleanup on them to bring them to standards, but no big deal. Nothing really needs to be done on this, but I just thought I'd let everyone know. ~ Amalas rawr =^_^= 20:20, 21 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
