Template:Stub

From Guild Wars 2 Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search

Description[edit]

A stub is an article that has missing or incomplete information. The article should be evaluated on content rather than length. Short articles are not necessarily stubs and long articles are not necessarily complete. This template will categorize tagged articles into Category:Stubs and if type is used will categorize it into the appropriate subcategory in that category.

As a rule of thumb, use this template sparingly:

  • Don't use a stub on a new article or if it's generally obvious that the article is incomplete.
  • Do use the stub when an article appears substantially complete, but isn't.
    • Include items missing from the article in the reason.
    • Generally, you can remove the tag if it does not include the reason and you cannot add them yourself.

Usage[edit]

{{stub|<type>|<reason>}}
