- Category:Cuban sportspeople stubs – {{Cuba-sport-bio-stub}}
- Category:Dominican Republic sportspeople stubs {{DominicanRepublic-sport-bio-stub}}
- {{Haiti-sport-bio-stub}}
- Category:Jamaican sportspeople stubs - {{Jamaica-sport-bio-stub}}
- Category:Puerto Rican sportspeople stubs – {{PuertoRico-sport-bio-stub}}

- Category:Central America and Caribbean athletics biography stubs
Waacstats (talk) 12:06, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
- I'd like to ask for a split of that last one. Templates already exist for {{CentralAm-athletics-bio-stub}} and {{Caribbean-athletics-bio-stub}}, as well as several individual country stub templates. I'll propose creating Category:Central America athletics biography stubs and Category:Caribbean athletics biography stubs. Once these are in place and loaded, I'll put in a separate request to delete the existing category. Dawynn (talk) 15:54, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
- I'm not sure about the Central American category as only a dozen or so articles use any of the templates that would go there which is why I've never proposed that split before despite thinking that it would be useful (note that when the category was set up it was because that is a region within the IAAF). Waacstats (talk) 20:57, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
- Mexico has its own category with 79 -- enough justification for a Central America header. But if the IAAF uses "Central America and Caribbean", I can see keeping the two together. Dawynn (talk) 02:21, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

Upmerged template already exists and has over 100 articles using it, I would also like to change the template from {{Norway-bridge-stub}} to {{Norway-bridge-struct-stub}} to follow the convention of other templates (keeping the original as a redirect for now.)

The result of the debate was speedy create upmerge templates.
See Category:American painters, 19th century birth stubs and Category:American painters, 20th century birth stubs. There are no century-level templates here, but someone started creating appropriate decade-level upmerge templates that effectively populate these categories. Problem is, the decade categories were not completely created. Asking to build the following upmerge templates.
For American painters, 19th century birth stubs
- {{US-painter-1850s-stub}}
- {{US-painter-1860s-stub}}
- {{US-painter-1870s-stub}}
- {{US-painter-1880s-stub}}
- {{US-painter-1890s-stub}}
For American painters, 20th century birth stubs
- {{US-painter-1950s-stub}}
- {{US-painter-1960s-stub}}
- {{US-painter-1970s-stub}}
- {{US-painter-1980s-stub}}
- {{US-painter-1990s-stub}}
Probably a little early for the last template. The painters in that case would be at most 20 years old -- a little early for establishing oneself as a noted painter. But I'm up for building it for future use. Dawynn (talk) 13:20, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
- Speedy support, see no reason for these not to exist, could be created based on original proposal. (I also changed the level of your heading) Waacstats (talk) 16:44, 26 September 2010 (UTC)

Category:Christian monastery stubs is newly oversized, mainly because I've just moved 600 UK monasteries there so I propose taking them all out of it again with the above category being fed by {{UK-Christian-monastery-stub}}.

OK. I saw this was in need of splitting (900+ articles), so did some work on the main category side first. Broke this down (as best as I could) into subfamilies. Looks like the following are viable:
- {{Acheilognathinae-stub}} / Category:Acheilognathinae stubs. 62 articles.
- {{Cultrinae-stub}}. Upmerge template for now. 32 articles.
- {{Cyprininae-stub}} / Category:Cyprininae stubs. 337 articles. Will pick up a few existing categories from Category:Cyprinidae stubs
- {{Leuciscinae-stub}} / Category:Leuciscinae stubs. 288 stubs. Will pick up Category:Notropis stubs also.
- {{Rasborinae-stub}} / Category:Rasborinae stubs. 62 stubs. Will pick up Category:Rasboras stubs also.

Over a 1000. Subdivision templates already created I think. Dr. Blofeld 18:28, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
- Support --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 15:26, 8 September 2010 (UTC)
- raion templates are already created but none of them reach 50 let alone 60 and there are very view that are not classified so unless someone can find some grouops of regions that we can use I don't see how we can split this up before it gets any worse.

An editor is adding a lot of villages of late. Around 700 stubs and counting. I think the intention is to add all 2800 billages of Albania eventually so a reorganization now would be a good idea. Dr. Blofeld 11:40, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

Will have to look later to see if any need disambig but I wouldn't have thought so. Waacstats (talk) 21:28, 5 September 2010 (UTC)- Looks like a split by county would be fine. can't see any counties needing disambig. Waacstats (talk) 20:11, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

Oversized, we have already stated splitting this by county templates upmerged to regional categories but could do with finishing this to get it back down to a reasonable size. Any objections.Waacstats (talk) 22:08, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
