Proposals, February 2018
Scottish nobility

The result of the debate was create.
Category:Scottish nobility stubs currently has 438 articles. "This category is for stub articles relating to Scottish nobility or peerage, including royalty from the Kingdom of Scotland and predecessor states." The corresponding categories for the Peerages of England, Great Britain, Ireland and the United Kingdom have (subject to suffient numbers) separate categories for dukes, earls, viscounts and barons (although not for marquesses) - see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Peer_stubs . I propose to create "Lord-of-Parliament-stub", "Scotland-duke-stub", "Scotland-earl-stub" and "Scotland-viscount-stub", linking respectively to "Lord of Parliament stubs", "Peerage of Scotland duke stubs", "Peerage of Scotland earl stubs" and "Peerage of Scotland viscount stubs".

I started doing this before reading the recommendation to respond here. Anyway this seems like it makes sense and would help get things out of the main Georgia category Category:Georgia (U.S. state) stubs. ☆ Bri (talk) 00:33, 25 February 2018 (UTC)
- I'm all for an upmerged template; if it ends up on 60+ articles I support creating the category. Pegship (talk) 20:56, 25 February 2018 (UTC)
- I found the {{GeorgiaUS-bio-stub}} and corrected the code (it was formed like a category), upmerged it to Category:Georgia (U.S. state) stubs until it reaches 60+. Pegship (talk) 20:40, 1 March 2018 (UTC)

In 2016 the former district of Osterode was merged into the existing district of Göttingen. Therefore the Category:Osterode district geography stubs has become obsolete. There is no Category:Göttingen district geography stubs yet, but there is an upmerged template {{Göttingen-geo-stub}} (linking to Category:Braunschweig region geography stubs). With 36 articles in Category:Osterode district geography stubs and about 50 80 articles transcluding {{Göttingen-geo-stub}}, Category:Göttingen district geography stubs would contain enough articles.

{{econ-term-stub}} now used on 89 articles; I propose Category:Economic terminology stubs. I proposed the cat previously and later withdrew the proposal, am now re-proposing more confidently. Pegship (talk) 23:32, 15 February 2018 (UTC)

The stub category for Spilomelinae--a subfamily of butterflies--notes that the category is very large. I'd like to have a subcategory for the genus Syllepte within that category. As I see it, there will be roughly 195 items in that subcategory--more than in any subcategory that already exists under that category. I'm quite happy to populate such a subcategory; I've done many far bigger projects. Uporządnicki (talk) 21:07, 7 February 2018 (UTC)
- Since I proposed this, I actually set up a subcategory for the genus itself, under the category for Spilomelinae (not the stub), and I'm a bit more than a third of the way through populating that category. Uporządnicki (talk) 18:02, 23 February 2018 (UTC)
- Support per nom, and thanks. Pegship (talk) 20:46, 1 March 2018 (UTC)
