Proposals, November 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.

Festival templates by Euro country

Genre divisions are good for festivals but I also feel we should have these by country.♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:52, 30 November 2011 (UTC)

Support and speediable as we already have a {{Japan-festival-stub}}. SeveroTC 20:05, 30 November 2011 (UTC)
Support - why not? --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 18:59, 6 December 2011 (UTC)

Should be over 100.♦ Dr. Blofeld 21:22, 28 November 2011 (UTC)

Cnidarian stubs

I was unaware of these proposal procedures when I created two stub categories, {{Anthozoa-stub}} and {{Medusozoa-stub}} (both currently upmerged into {{Cnidarian-stub}}). These stub templates would seem to have been eligible for S1 speedy creation. The current {{Cnidarian-stub}} category covers too much diversity--jellyfish, corals, sea anemones, hydroids.

I am currently reclassifying all {{Cnidarian-stub}} articles into either {{Anthozoa-stub}} or {{Medusozoa-stub}}. Each will each contain 80+ members and many articles have been moved already into the two new sub-stub categories. With a lot of work even these two stub categories would be too broad (Jellyfish and Hydroids, Corals and anemones being the next most likely finer divisions), but for the current articles two stub categories is a big improvement over one. Once all current articles are moved to either {{Anthozoa-stub}} or {{Medusozoa-stub}} then {{Cnidarian-stub}} can be retired. bondolo (talk) 04:06, 28 November 2011 (UTC)

Looks good to me, but if you're looking at further splits, don't forget that the minimum stub category size is usually 60. SeveroTC 20:05, 30 November 2011 (UTC)
Categories are fully created and are no longer upmerged to parent. Each has 85+ members. About 20 articles in the parent category still need sub-classification. bondolo (talk) 22:57, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

Nuclide stubs

{{Nuclide-stub}} - create Category:Nuclide stubs 3.14159265358pi (talk)

Is there a permcat for this? I can only find the article (Nuclide). SeveroTC 18:14, 20 November 2011 (UTC)

3.14159265358pi (talk) 16:59, 22 November 2011 (UTC): What about stub articles like Fluorine-18 or Sodium-24, Severo?

Both of which are in the category tree of Category:Isotopes and are tagged with {{isotope-stub}} (and Category:Isotope stubs is undersized as it is). I don't understand which articles you think this stub type would be useful for as there is no standard category grouping all such articles together. SeveroTC 18:06, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
I'm not seeing any use-case for this that is not met already by {{isotope-stub}}. Creating a fork of a small cat into one with a non-distinct meaning apart from the other one does not benefit wikipedia readers or editors. DMacks (talk) 18:17, 4 December 2011 (UTC)
