:::Striking Meleonoma as genus included in Antequerinae. Too much taxonomic contradiction both within and outside en.wiki. As a result, the category would be slightly undersized (50 stubs or thereabout) if separating Limnaecia into a subcategory, so gonna sort those straight into Antequerinae stubs instead.

Revision as of 17:20, 22 July 2018

Proposals, July 2018

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

NEW PROPOSALS

Regional Sub Categories for Missouri Registered Historic Place stubs

Missouri Registered Historic Place stubs has over 1100 stubs currently grouped in several dozen upmerged county-level templates. Proposing speedy creation of Regional NHRP subcategories matching the existing regional groupings of Missouri Geography stubs. The existing subcats are:

  1. Central Missouri geography stubs
  2. St. Louis Area, Missouri geography stubs
  3. Kansas City, Missouri region geography stubs
  4. Northeast Missouri geography stubs
  5. Northwest Missouri geography stubs
  6. Ozark region, Missouri geography stubs
  7. Southeast Missouri geography stubs
  8. Southwest Missouri geography stubs

And the new proposed subcats would be as follows (composed of the identical counties as in the geography groupings):

  1. Central Missouri Registered Historic Place stubs
  2. St. Louis Area, Missouri Registered Historic Place stubs
  3. Kansas City, Missouri region Registered Historic Place stubs
  4. Northeast Missouri Registered Historic Place stubs
  5. Northwest Missouri Registered Historic Place stubs
  6. Ozark region, Missouri Registered Historic Place stubs
  7. Southeast Missouri Registered Historic Place stubs
  8. Southwest Missouri Registered Historic Place stubs

Subcats of Othoptera stubs

Category:Orthoptera stubs has 1298 articles, currently. The insect order Orthoptera is divided into two suborders: Ensifera and Caelifera. I note the following search results, showing that at least 429 of the Orthoptera stubs seem to belong in Ensifera: [1], and at least 118 of them seem to belong in Caelifera: [2]. Those searches only catch articles where the applicable suborder is actually mentioned, so a great many are missed, which can be identified on closer inspection. (I can provide more evidence if needed.) I propose stub categories: Category:Ensifera stubs and Category:Caelifera stubs, which should suffice to almost completely depopulate the parent category, except for stubs dealing with Orthopterans in general. Subsequent further subdivision is likely to be desired, but I figure we start here. -GTBacchus(talk) 09:28, 14 July 2018 (UTC)

Support, I did some research with PetScan, got the following results
Interesting that PetScan counts seem to be the inverse of what the search results suggest. - Furicorn (talk) 10:25, 16 July 2018 (UTC)
  • >5 days, so created. I'd appreciate if someone could double-check my work, as it's been years since I've done this sort of thing. If I made any mistakes, I'd be happy enough to find out and learn to do better. -GTBacchus(talk) 17:26, 21 July 2018 (UTC)
@GTBacchus: You forgot to add the WikiProject banners (Stub sorting & Insects in this case) to the talkpages, but other than that I didn't see any issues. (Well, beyond the fact that most relevant stubs haven't been sorted into the newly established categories yet so they're still underpopulated for now, but that's to be expected as you only just created them) AddWittyNameHere 18:02, 21 July 2018 (UTC)

Flanders stubs

PetScan, PSID=5054403

  • Qualifying articles: 9968
Belgian Luxembourg geography stubs‎ (67 P)
Namur geography stubs‎ (89 P)
Walloon Brabant geography stubs‎
Hainaut geography stubs‎ (155 P)
Liège geography stubs‎ (132 P)
  • Likewise, there are several Flanders geography stub categories:
Antwerp geography stubs‎ (96 P)
East Flanders geography stubs‎ (109 P)
Flemish Brabant geography stubs‎ (95 P)
Belgian Limburg geography stubs‎ (44 P)
West Flanders geography stubs‎ (146 P)

Must Overcome Tedium to Handle Stub-sort (M.O.T.H.S)

Same staggered approach. Same precedent for genus-level categories. As always, article-numbers given for existing categories do not include numbers in their extant subcategories; unless explicitly stated otherwise, estimated article numbers given for proposed categories do not include numbers for articles in simultaneously-proposed subcategories. Unless otherwise stated, most if not all articles for the proposed subcategories can be found in the lowest-level extant stub category I'm proposing it as subcategory of.

In part who-even-knows-anymore-plus-one of this saga, I'd like to propose the following:
For existing category Category:Drepanidae stubs (just shy of 800 stubs, no subcategories), the following subcategories and templates:

Five days past, creating. AddWittyNameHere (talk) 17:10, 10 July 2018 (UTC)
Drepaninae done. Thyatirinae in progress. About 30% done, taking a bit of a break before wrapping up. AddWittyNameHere (talk) 00:16, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
And done, if a little later than expected. Adding to stub types list now. AddWittyNameHere 00:00, 12 July 2018 (UTC)
