Politics stub
Pretty straightforward... an unproposed and malformed duplicate of poli-stub. Unnecessary, and not even a convention-compliant enough name to be turned into a redirect - delete. Grutness...wha?  01:58, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete. Has not been used - creator is known for inappropriate edits. Please close this - and put the close instructions somewhere! &mdash; RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 02:06, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

The result of the debate was withdrawn

Punkmorten created this alongside a Norway-politician-1790s-stub - both, as far as I can see, unproposed. I can see the point of having the template as a continuation of a series - but the category is likely to remain substantially undersized for the foreseeable future. A random sampling of the main category suggests some 40 stubs would be in this category. Upmerge? Grutness...wha?  02:19, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Withdraw, per below. Grutness...wha?  23:52, 27 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Would it help if I created 30 new stubs to fill the stubcat (in addition to the 40+ which already exist)? Punkmorten (talk) 14:12, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
 * If you can get this up to the threshold of 60 - either by finding or making more stubs - I'll happily withdraw this nom. Grutness...wha?  01:55, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
 * I have reached 42 through a working session. The stub category would easily exceed 60 entries right now if a Norway-politician-1780s-stub was implemented, can I do that? Punkmorten (talk) 18:54, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
 * That's probably better proposed at WP:WSS/P, but I doubt there'd be any objections. Grutness...wha?  21:16, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
 * I did, but it says it'll take five days to approve. Punkmorten (talk) 08:07, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Under circumstances like this, SFD debates aren't closed as soon as the 7-day period is over, since there's clearly work in progress on them. Also, under the circumstances, I'll withdraw this nom now, since it's clear this will reach threshold once the new template is approved (which seems a formality).

From the "to vet" list - this is a little-used redirect to Engineering-stub, though there's little indication from its name as to what it was for - it certainly isn't a standard stub name. Not used by any editor in over a month (if "related changes" is any judge), and only currently on a very small handful of articles - delete. Grutness...wha?  00:54, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

From the "to vet" list - this is an unused, ambiguously-named redirect to Law-stub, though there's little indication from its name as to what it was for. Appears not to be in use at all - delete. Grutness...wha?  00:54, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

From the "to vet" list - this is a non-standard-name redirect to KDE-stub. Name seems to be directly in opposition to normal stub naming conventions, and this hasn't been used by any editor in over a month - delete. Grutness...wha?  00:54, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Two others just discovered... non-naming-standard-compliant redirects which were between them used on three articles in total. Delete. Grutness...<small style="color:#008822;">wha?  01:49, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
