Wikipedia:Stub types for deletion/Log/2008/March/23

Jura-geo-stub

 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the stub template and/or category above. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the template's or category's talk page (if any).  No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the debate was '''make current template into "deprecated, don't use" type, rename swiss template to JuraCH. Note: I have made a temporary, which can be freely deleted once these stubs have been reassigned. '''

OK, blame me for this one. Template name seemed OK at the time, but a less brilliant idea now that we have hundreds of articles in the newly-split French Jura-geos. I suggest we move this to JuraCH-geo-stub. What we do with the redirect I throw open to the floor. BTW, has anyone else noticed the assorted Swiss stub types that are funny-looking, due to the transclusion of Portal:Switzerland/Stub? Methinks another WPJ whacky scheme is afoot.

 * We should probably delete the redirect, since it'll just be too ambiguous. Problem, of course, is with people used to seeing it... As to the rename, support. Grutness...wha?  23:26, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I was thinking either deletion, or "deprecated template" message. (Perhaps upmerged someplace semi-arbitrary, in the latter case.)  Alai (talk) 03:42, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
 * ...such as, which I tidy out once a month anyway, if no-one else has earlier. Sounds like a good idea. Grutness...wha?  00:12, 25 March 2008 (UTC)


 * upmerge to Switzerland-geo-stub or rename CantonJura-geo-stub would be ok for me.
 * BTW the transclusion mentioned above shouldn't have a visible effect, except Portal:Switzerland/New articles. -- User:Docu
 * The rename, if done, would be to the standard JuraCH form (which is how geo-stub naming is done in ambiguous cases) - but that's not the problem. The problem is we've got a frequently-used form (Jura-geo-stub) that is ambiguous. We can't easily use it as a redirect to either JuraCH- or JuraFR-. Hence the ideas about upmerging it somewhere bigger and regularly sifted with a "don't use" label (see China-geo-stub for a similar example). Grutness...wha?  00:17, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Ok. Note that the Jura region and the Jura Mountains in Switzerland are not identical with the canton of Jura covered by this geo-stub template. This doesn't necessarily preclude us from using JuraCH-geo-stub though. -- User:Docu
