Proposals, May 2011

Please check how many articles qualify for a stub type before proposing it.

If (after approval) you create a stub type, please be sure to add it to the list of stub types. This page will be archived in its entirety once all discussions have been closed; there is no need to move them to another page.

NEW PROPOSALS

further split of Category:Roman Catholic bishop stubs

This is still close to 600 while further tidying should get this down a bit the following should help

Categories only if the templates do pass the 60 mark. Waacstats (talk) 13:04, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Breakdown of Category:Sphingidae stubs

Numbers provided here were provided by Catscan, crossing the permcats with sphingidae-stub.

Dawynn (talk) 12:33, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Everything seems to be in order so support. Waacstats (talk) 13:00, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Category:Mauritian football biography stubs

{{Mauritius-footy-bio-stub}} has passed the 60 mark, speedy create the category? Waacstats (talk) 07:57, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

split of Category:Quebec MP stubs

Oversized and with at least two ways to split based on other precedants I'll offer both up and see which we prefer. Either a split by dob

or by party with the following parties being viable; Bloc Québécois, Conservative Party of Canada (1867–1942), Liberal Party of Canada, Progressive Conservative Party of Canada guessing at

Discuss! Waacstats (talk) 10:22, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

Category:Australian port stubs

I am proposing a speedy creation stub (if that's how you phrase it) for Australian ports, docks and marinas. It fits because it is nationwide and... yeah, see S2. This stub can fit under so many like Akuna Bay, New South Wales, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bundaberg_Port, rowra Waters, New South Wales]], Challenger Harbour, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fremantle_Fishing_Boat_Harbour, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hillarys_Boat_Harbour, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nelson_Bay,_New_South_Wales, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two_Rocks,_Western_Australia and most of them under http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ports_in_Australia. Please create.

Oppose. This isn't a speedy, because there aren't 60 stubs for it. There aren't 60 articles in the parent permcat - for the very good reason that there is no permcat (which makes the creation of a stub type questionable in itself). In any case, the articles are almost certainly better sorted by their respective geo types, especially since several of the ones you list cover not only the ports themselves but the towns or suburbs which surround them. Grutness...wha? 01:47, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

split of Category:European football competition stubs

Oversized and two templates are over the 60 mark so propose the following

Speedy? Waacstats (talk) 22:37, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

Only problem with the USSR one is that it makes Category:Soviet sport stubs undersized. SeveroTC 11:08, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
Support all except the second category (Category:Soviet football competition stubs) - that in time. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 14:19, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Martinique stubs

I was quite surprised to discover that there's no {{Martinique-bio-stub}}, even though there's a need for it (and other French overseas territories are so covered); furthermore, I think we could do well to create {{Martinique-politician-stub}}, as there is a new user creating a spate of French overseas politicians stubs. Think it'll work? --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 07:36, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

Sounds good to me. Waacstats (talk) 08:41, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

Category:Portuguese football biography stubs

Oversized propose the usual split

categories iff they pass 60. Waacstats (talk) 10:14, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

Category:Micronoctuidae stubs / {{Micronoctuidae-stub}}

Permcat: Category:Micronoctuidae. Catscan shows 261 articles. Dawynn (talk) 18:08, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

{{Monument-stub}}?

While it is true that Category:Sculpture stubs doesn't yet need splitting (and has quite a number of sculptor articles in it which shouldn't be there, I think a separate stub for monuments and memorials would be useful and would almost certainly get to the threshold for a separate category (Category:Monument and memorial stubs). A quick coulty shows that over 450 of the current sculpture stubs have either the word "monument" or "memorial" as part of their name, and it's likely that many others in the category would qualify for this proposed stub type. Grutness...wha? 01:48, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

  • I'm not 100% convinced by the template name, the reason being that in the Netherlands the equivalent of a graded property or NRHP is called a reiksmonument often shortened to monument so things could get confusing. I dont think {{memorial-stub}} would be much better either and putting both in there would be unecessarily large template name. Waacstats (talk) 09:21, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
What about creating a stub tag for the latter titled {{Rijksmonument-stub}}? (Apologies if I've got the spelling wrong). I think a monument stub tag would be a great help, yes. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 13:35, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

Category:Richmond County, Virginia geography stubs mess; split?

The template for the stub (Template:RichmondVA-geo-stub), when compared to the category it links to, has resulted in a geographically inaccurate goof. Richmond, Virginia refers to an the independent capital city in the central part of the state, whereas Richmond County, Virginia is an unrelated rural county located a good distance away (see the leads of both articles for more to back that up). Thus the template used refers to the city, whereas the category refers to the county, and the articles marked with it are a jumbled mess of both. Please advise! Morgan Riley (talk) 22:01, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

Those related to Richmond city should use {{RichmondCityVA-geo-stub}} so the template needs ammending and the articles relating to the city need moving. Waacstats (talk) 19:59, 20 May 2011 (UTC)

Speedy request. To pick up {{Gradiška-geo-stub}} (60 P). Main article: Gradiška. Perm cats: Category:Populated places in Bosanska Gradiška and Category:Gradiška. As you can see from the article, both Bosanska Gradiška and Gradiška seem to be accepted. Using Bosanska Gradiška for parallelism with the permcat. Dawynn (talk) 17:49, 16 May 2011 (UTC)

The Frech rail station category is grossly undersorted. Catscan indicates that the better share of Category:France rail stubs actually belongs here. A simple conservative catscan size-based search through Category:Railway stations in France shows over 900 articles that can be placed here. In order to reduce time spent on extra tagging, I'm asking that templates be made available for each of the regional subcategories found in Category:Railway stations in France. I propose the following templates. The categories are also being reserved here, but will only be built if they can be properly filled:

Country-level restaurant templates

As mentioned in a recent discussion at WT:WSS, there are currently only a handful of countries with their own restaurant-stub subtypes. I think we at the very least need to add a few of the major ones. The following would each be used on more than half a dozen stubs:

A generic {{Europe-restaurant-stub}} might be useful as well, since there are a large number of countries in Europe with three or four stubs. Grutness...wha? 01:10, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

Speedy proposal. To pick up {{MTR-stub}}. I realize that this one has been deleted before, because of reasons posted here. I'm seeing the previous deletion was because:

  1. Category was undersized. Template {{MTR-stub}} is now on 84 articles.
  2. Category was "cryptically named". But there is a permcat called Category:MTR. And there is also a Category:MTR Corporation for the parent company, which explains the name of the child category.

I realize that this will wipe out most of the Category:Hong Kong rapid transit stubs. However, as has been pointed out here, many of the MTR articles have nothing to do with rapid transit. Dawynn (talk) 14:05, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

Proposed Music Genre Stubs

There are many stubs that should be created, but aren't. Examples:

  • Template:Punk-stub Punk rock stub
  • Stub icon

    This rock-related article is a stub. You can help Wikipedia by expanding it.

    Rock music stub
  • Template:Grunge-stub Grunge music stub
  • Template:Rock 'n' Roll-stub Rock 'n' Roll music stub
  • Template:Techno-stub Techno music stub
  • Template:Alternative-stub Alternative rock stub
