[edit] Stubs

[edit] Stubs relating to navies in general

  • {{Navy-stub}} (not to be used on articles about specific ships)
    • {{US-navy-stub}} (articles about the United States Navy in general, not individual ships).
    • {{USCG-stub}} (articles about the United States Coast Guard)

If you stub an article with a generic template, please also include a national one, e.g. both {{India-stub}} and {{Mil-ship-stub}} if the article relates to a ship of the Indian Navy.

If you wish to have any new stub templates created, please propose it first at WP:WSS/P, to avoid problems with renaming etc. The standard requirements for approving a new template is that at least 60 stub articles should benefit from the new template and that it follows the WP:WSS naming system.
