Proposals, February 2009

by country templates

Templateing this by country, 2 questions remain.

How do we deal with people who won medals competing for Serbia and Montenegro? Do we classify them under serbia-,Montenegro- templates or do we have a seperate template.
How do we deal with people who won medals competing for the Unified team? Do we classift them as USSR-, their later nationality or with a UnifiedTeam- template? Waacstats (talk) 15:01, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

Politics is the root of all problems huh? I'm not sure, perhaps administer both templates or use the perosns place of birth (either current day Serbia or Montenegro) to judge. you could always create templates to make it easier. Dr. Blofeld White cat 18:49, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

Bot generated now has 3000 stubs. Any suggestions? Dr. Blofeld White cat 17:55, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

Could split by main Category:Algae taxonomic classes but could probably still use further divisional split. Dr. Blofeld White cat 17:57, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

We now have over 5000. The two existing sub-categories appear to be classes, so lets start with that level and see how we do. Only problem is not all the classes have articles yet. Waacstats (talk) 15:14, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

A matter of time perhaps... Really we ought to contact the bot runner and get him to come to an agreement with stub sorting. Dr. Blofeld White cat 18:47, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

By-country templates for Euro-archaeology?

Category:European archaeology stubs is of moderate size, and a by-country template split looks desirable (a UK-archaeology-stub would easily pass threshold, as well). Problem is, of course, that we're dealing with ancient history in countries notorious for the changes in borders over that time. Personally, I'd favour the usual "current borders" principle, but if there are better ideas, voice 'em. I'd like to at least propose a {{UK-archaeology-stub}} / Category:United Kingdom archaeology stubs, and suggest debating on the rest. Grutness...wha? 01:06, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

Permanent parent cat is split by curent nation so I see no problem in by country templates, categories for any that reach 60.Waacstats (talk) 11:00, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

Support Me neither Waacs. Dr. Blofeld White cat 17:55, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

Category:Stub-Class black metal articles

I proposed this a while back Dr. Blofeld White cat 17:58, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

You may have proposed a Category:Black metal stubs, but I doubt that you proposed a Category:Stub-Class... anything here! Grutness...wha? 20:36, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

Ooops, I meant to post that under "library"!! just below here. Dr. Blofeld White cat 16:58, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
