Template:Bartending-stub/doc

Purpose
undefined is for use in identifying and processing stub articles related to WikiProject Bartending which works to improve articles related to bartending, supplies and drinkware.

Articles should contain information that indicates or illustrates the notability and popularity of the article's topic. A verifiable history of the topic, documented use by notable people or in notable situations, and frequent references within popular or historical cultures, all help an article stand on its own and reduce the likelihood that the article will or should be deleted.

This particular template identifies articles concerning bartending (the profession, people, tools, supplies, drinkware, and places) that are stubs. Note that there are separate cocktail-stub and mixed-drink-stub templates that accomplish the same thing, and may be a better match if the article concerns specific drinks.

Tagging articles with this template is helpful; actually improving the article is extremely helpful and eases the burden of work facing all the Project volunteers.

Usage
Anyone may identify an article as stub. Doing so helps the WikiProject participants and other editors locate and improve these articles. If you use this template frequently, consider becoming a Project Participant.

To use this template, place  at or near the bottom of the article you wish to have identified as a mixed drink or drinkware related stub.

Do not subst: this tag. This template is occasionally updated by the Mixed Drinks WikiProject; therefore, the tag needs to remain dynamically generated, not substituted.

You may quickly check the list of stub articles by referring to.

Resulting actions
Tagging an article as a stub should initiate the following actions (preferably by you immediately following the tagging of the article):
 * Note portions of the article that contain claims or statements lacking adequate citations. Use the fact template to mark the portions. Better yet, locate a good reference yourself and document it.
 * If the style of the article could use improvement, consider improving it.
 * With a little extra work, you may be able to improve a stub into a much better article.
 * Summarize key actions you have taken, and note items that still need work.
 * View and update the Project to-do list to note your changes.
