Description
A section stub is a section of an article that has missing or incomplete information — this has nothing to do with length: short sections are not necessarily stubs and long ones are not necessarily complete.
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.
- Always include a reason for stubbing, using the
reason =parameter. - Generally remove the tag if it does not include the reason and you cannot add them yourself.
- Always include a reason for stubbing, using the
This template will categorize articles that include it into Category:Articles with stub sections or an appropriate subcategory.
Usage
Parameters
- unnamed
- type of article
- This can be anything from armor to weapon; it will determine into which category of stubs that article is placed.
- reason
- This makes it more likely for people to be able to fill in the missing information. It has no effect on the article or categories.
- If you cannot add a reason for stubbing, reconsider whether the tag is appropriate.
