Proposals, April 2012
Please check how many articles qualify for a stub type before proposing it.

If (after approval) you create a stub type, please be sure to add it to the list of stub types. This page will be archived in its entirety once all discussions have been closed; there is no need to move them to another page.

Previous SFD and creations have left us a little short in London transport stub types. I propose the recreation of: Both would be double upmerged to.
 * London-tube-stub and with it (appprox 100)
 * London-dlr-stub (approx 20)

Also, London-overground-stub (approx 25), double upmerged to

I'm open to renaming any template (eg. LondonUndergound-stub or London-DLR-stub or even just DLR-stub?). SeveroTC 15:36, 22 April 2012 (UTC)

 * Fixed, don't know how I missed that. SeveroTC 15:05, 21 April 2012 (UTC)

English sportspeople
Propose the following under and the respective Category:British [sport] biography stubs (iff 60): Numbers based on articles currently transcluding asbox - hence possible categories for the ones under 60 if any unsorted stubs are found. English sportspeople has already been split for four sports (cricket, football, rugby union and rugby league) so these should be speediable. If I find the time, I will look for similar viable types amongst Scottish and Welsh sportspeople. SeveroTC 13:39, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

 * Sounds good, but what are those counts from? They add up to far more than holds and I wouldn't think there is that much overlap for railway stations. also adjusted heading level --Qetuth (talk) 11:12, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Within the relevant category tree, 1) articles transcluding asbox 2) articles smaller than 1500kb 3) articles transcluding Infobox and smaller than 2500kb. SeveroTC 12:04, 16 April 2012 (UTC)

Tunisia-school-stub
Possibly this comes under S2 speedy creation, as a upmerged template on the same pattern as the many others already listed at Category:African school stubs.

We already split by country for Australia and the US, so I propose the following: Canada, the UK and perhaps Turkey I'm expecting over 60, but categories only when 60 is reached, and the rest in the ballpark of 30-60, all double upmerged to the respective country buildings and structure stubs category.

2010s pop song stubs

 * WP:OTHERSTUFF is too easy, but it still pretty much drives it home here, as most of the preceding decades do have stub categories. I just created a new article that would fit well into that category (I tried using the tool listed above but it wasn't working properly).  Erpert  Who is this guy? 03:03, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
 * OTHERSTUFF doesn't apply to stub templates, we will always split along existing splits. No problem with a template (2010s-pop-song-stub) and when and only when we reach 60 a category . SeveroTC 09:23, 9 April 2012 (UTC)

Law enforcement stubs
