Purpose

  • The stub template is added either to the top or bottom of an article (not both) in order to mark the article as requiring help from other Editors. The act of placing the stub template also adds the article to the Stub category, allowing other Editors to easily identify what articles need attention.

Usage

  • Cut & Paste {{stub}} into the article, either before any legitimate article material or at the bottom, after any category links.
