[edit] tags

What is the point of moving the tags to the bottom? Seems like they'll do less good there. Can you cite a style guide or something?SIckBoy 20:25, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

No. See if you can find any rules in WP:STYLE, maybe I missed something. However, I would like to point out that every other stubbed article on Wikipedia has them at the bottom except this one! I therefore cite precedent. Presumably the theory goes that any editor too apathetic or dim to read a short article all the way to the end probably isn't the ideal person to make it longer.

Everyone I've seen has them at the top. Can you at least cite your theory? Or is it your theory? How does it trump my theory?SIckBoy 21:16, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Didn't notice you're discussing this topic when I made my last edit. The style guide you asked for is Wikipedia:Perfect stub article and more precisely the section about categorizing stubs.--BSI 21:32, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
