keep stub, upmerge category. Wiz ard man 23:32, 23 December 2009 (UTC) Empty category, apparently unproposed and unlinked. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 11:53, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom; unproposed, unlinked, and not used on a single article. A Stop at Willoughby (talk) 20:48, 4 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep template but sort stubs to it and if necessary upmerge. Was proposed - but as part of a blanket nomination (see here. Grutness...wha?  23:28, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay, I looked at, the associated permanent category (up for renaming at CfD), and there are very few articles in it. I have yet to find a DKP politician article that isn't in that category already. Some articles in the category could be considered stubs, but ultimately the nominated stubcat would be rather underpopulated even if we were to sort stubs to it. Most likely, the end result would be an upmerge anyway. All things considered, I think deletion is the better option here. A Stop at Willoughby (talk) 22:38, 13 December 2009 (UTC)
 * So that would suggest we the template but upmerge it, and delete the category, right? Grutness...wha?  00:51, 16 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Maybe. Would the template be feeding into, , or both? A Stop at Willoughby (talk) 15:49, 16 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Just the German stub category. Stub templates should never feed permcats. Grutness...wha?  23:55, 16 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay. In that case, I guess we can keep the template, but upmerge the category. A Stop at Willoughby (talk) 16:00, 19 December 2009 (UTC)
