Proposals, April 2020

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

I propose that the stub category Category:Africa transport stubs be made a category that can directly contain articles like all the other stub categories by continent e.g. Category:Asia transport stubs. There are a number of articles that should be in this category rather than Category:Transport stubs but do not fit into any of the subcategories (eg Ministry of Transport (Gabon) or Ministry of Works and Transport (Botswana)). I have not checked the "Transport by country" stub categories but similarly they should also directly include articles. Hugo999 (talk) 04:39, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
- The other continents contain upmerged templates which place articles in the continent category; if an upmerged template gets used on more than 60 articles it generally gets its own category. In Category:Asia transport stubs, for example, there are 13 upmerged templates for different Asian countries. That said, fellow stubbers, should we create upmerged country templates and {{Africa-transport-stub}} to parallel {{Asia-transport-stub}}? Her Pegship (I'm listening) 05:09, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
- Comment: Other African transport stubs by country (at present only Algeria, Egypt, Nigeria and South Africa) could be increased by adding say the DRCongo, Kenya, Morocco and Tanzania. Hugo999 (talk) 01:38, 20 April 2020 (UTC)
