Basque stubs
As we already have similar categories for Catalonia, I don't see a problem with the creation of these, but the naming and scope needs to be thought about. In terms of scope, are we going for the modern Basque Country (autonomous community) or Basque Country (greater region) (it seems the creator scoped as the latter, but usual convention is to scope by the former). The naming issues is that we should use BasqueCountry- in the template name and Category:Basque stubs should be at Category:Basque Country stubs. SeveroTC 10:50, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
- In terms of your scope query, we already have:
- ... which encompasses another country with a border running through it. --Mais oui! (talk) 10:57, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
- Point of information, I have identified approx 700 Basque-related article stubs that are neither geographical nor biographical (the 2 subcats), and I haven't really been trying all that hard. I'd geusstimate that there are up to 2000 stub articles to be sorted into the main cat, and hundreds more to be sorted into the 2 subcats. --Mais oui! (talk) 11:02, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
- Doesn't really make a difference here: stubs should be proposed first so that issues can be resolved before roll out, and as you'll note at WPSS/D, I've brought up the issues of naming and scope. SeveroTC 11:10, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
