[edit] Cat:stubs

Currently ~200 articles (1 listings page).

[edit] Categories created, to be populated

[edit] Newly created

See Cat:Underpopulated stub categories ({{popstub}})

[edit] In need of re-sorting

• Cat:Economics and finance stubs now has {{macroeconomics-stub}} and {{microeconomics-stub}} to help cut it down to size.
• American people stubs. As usual, but was <800 at time of last major update. Now around 1100.
• {{US-business-bio-stub}} -- numerous new by-DoB subtypes
• Cat:Academic journal stubs -- newly created, but also populated from the old {{journal-stub}} redirect. Several may be sci-journals, or some other narrower type.
• Cat:Scientific journal stubs -- now explicitly scoped to be sci-only. Some may need to be moved into the broader type, other into narrower ones.
• Cat:play stubs -- no longer oversized, but still highly undersorted to by-year tags
• Cat:Antarctica geography stubs -- split proposed and approved, templates created, but doesn't align to existing categories. Re-sorting by hand will be required.
