This is a dynamic list of stub messages/templates that are applied to stubs. This list is maintained by the Stub sorting WikiProject.

Notes

Proposing new stub types

If you think that a new stub type not currently on this list is needed, please go to Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals and follow the instructions at the top of that page. DO NOT simply create a new stub type and add it to this list; any such stub types are likely to be removed from the list and may be sent to Wikipedia:Stub types for deletion.

Proposing stub types prior to their creation also enables us to determine whether the stub type is needed, whether it clashes with existing stub types or structure, and whether is it correctly named.

Note to admins deleting stub types

It is important for consistency, and to avoid confusion on the parts of stub-sorters, that stub types be removed from the stub type list when they are deleted. Please don't leave red links on this page!

List order

Please note when adding new templates to this list that the order within each category is as follows

  1. general stub message
  2. alphabetically by type of article sorted (not alphabetically by template!)

A note on stub icons

Several of the stub categories relate to controversial issues. For this reason, many of the icons have been chosen carefully so as not to cause offense or appear biased. If you wish to change any stub icon, please clear the icon change at both Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals and at any WikiProject associated with the stub category first.

A note on the numbers

The number of articles in a stub category is a useful piece of information for members of this WikiProject in that it helps us decide when a category needs splitting because it has become too large to be effective. These article counts are gathered manually by inspection of each category.

When reporting an article count, please date the count and use the following numerical binning system: 

<10, <25, <50, <100, <200 (<1 page), <300, ..(a bin for each 100).. , <800.
Beyond 800 articles, or 4 pages, the number of pages in the category is shown in bold.
The number of articles in a large bin is #pages*200 (7 pages = 1,400 articles).

Binning article counts gives less information but is faster to gather and generally easier to assess. Category sizes are in a constant state of flux due to new additions and articles being expanded beyond stub status.

Codes: *B, *D, *R and *W

  • *B indicates there's a corresponding biography stub type, and gives a link to that category.
  • *D appears with stub types (template and category) that have been listed for deletion at WP:SFD.
  • *R indicates that there are redirects to this template. The *R provides a link to Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Stub redirects, which lists all such redirects.
  • *W gives a link to the specific WikiProject associated with the topic covered by the stub template and its category.

Relationships between stub types

The parent-child relationships shown in the listing below reflect the relationship between categories into which each template places the article to which it is affixed. Multiple parentage is indicated by the presence of small text describing child stub types that appear elsewhere in the listing. This is done to eliminate duplication of stub counts, which inevitably leads to different values for the multiple listings of the same stub type as a result of human error.

Stub categories without a stub template

There are a few stub categories that are not associated with a stub template or contain only child categories (no articles).

  2. ^ Use {{struct-stub}} for stubs about SPECIFIC buildings/structures; Use {{architecture-stub}} for stubs about building STYLES, structural and design features, and architectural vocabulary.
  3. ^ LGBT = "lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender"
  4. ^ The Hebrew Bible (sometimes referred to as the Tanakh) is approximately equivalent to the Old Testament
