:*Discussion of proposed definition of a stub: "An article that does not completely cover the subject matter, and which could be expanded."

:** I think that definition is too broad. Even a developed page could be said not to cover a subject completely. Rather than define what a stub is not, I feel that we should be defining a stub by what it is.

:*Discussion of proposed placement of stub template. County pages currently display the stub at the top. I would propose that we establish a consistent pattern of placing stub templates at the bottom.

:*Depending on the outcome of discussion, I would propose that moderators and page adopters be encouraged to review all stub articles within their geography/subject, remove the stub designation for any article that does not fit the description, and move stub templates to the bottom of any articles that are stubs.
