:*Discussion of proposed placement of stub template.&nbsp; County pagse currently display the stub at the top.&nbsp; I would propose that we establish a consistent pattern of placing stub templates at the bottom. [[User:Lembley|Lise]] 15:43, 13 March 2012 (UTC)<br>  
:** 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.

:*Depending on the outcome of discussion, I&nbsp;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.
