Multiple Countries

[edit]

If an article appears on stub lists for multiple countries, does it get entered on each of those countries, or just one? Neil916 (Talk) 05:30, 16 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Neil916: One of the rules states: "The article must be directly related to the country you choose a stub for, though in some cases such as mountain ranges and rivers where there may be a transnational overlap this is permitted but the destub may only be listed once for one of the countries. Same applies to wildlife, if the subject populates multiple countries, select one country which you think it might most apply to and list the destub there."
The key bit is may only be listed once for one of the countries. I think that answers your question. — Yellow Dingo (talk) 05:34, 16 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, thank you. Neil916 (Talk) 05:38, 16 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
On a similar note, I've destubbed African nationalism but I'm not sure if it would be fair to put it in any one category. Can we have a general continent-wide section? —Brigade Piron (talk) 18:03, 16 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The problem though is there's not a prize for that. @Dthomsen8: Any chance you could put up an extra $20 for a Miscellaneous section which includes general Africa and islands around Africa like Canaries and Reunion which might not belong to it? ♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:11, 16 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
