Create Canadian parliamentary group stubs
Rationale: Per discussion with administrator, et al., elsewhere, we have a number of parliamentary groups/technical groups (chiefly in the Senate of Canada) that are notionally both (a) non-partisan and (b) non-election-contesting. As such, they're not strictly a political party, though they are a parliamentary caucus (or a parliamentary party). Thus, I propose creating the Canadian parliamentary group stubs stub sorting category and re-sorting the applicable non-political party caucuses into this category. Note, too, that in the House of Commons, we could/would re-sort Democratic Representative Caucus and Quebec debout (short-lived spinoff from the Bloc) into this new stub sorting category. Note, too, this would be in keeping with our existing naming conventions such that similar stub sorting categories could be added as needed for other countries.

 * Presumably this would be a sub-cat of, and the permcat would be . Are there 60+ articles that would qualify for this stub type? Her Pegship (really?) 19:07, 22 November 2019 (UTC)
 * , 60+? Probably not. If you include historical parliamentary groups, there's probably close to 30-40, but still short of the 60+ requirement. Still, being tagged as a "Canadian political party stub" is not correct.
 * Would you, alternatively, support an upmerging of the parliamentary groups in Canada to Category:Canada politics stubs? Doug Mehus T · C  19:12, 22 November 2019 (UTC)
 * , Or, alternatively, a renaming of Category:Canadian political party stubs to Category:Canadian political party and parliamentary group stubs? Doug Mehus T · C  19:15, 22 November 2019 (UTC)
 * - If there aren't enough to meet the stub quantity guidelines, I'm all for upmerging them to . Her Pegship (really?) 23:06, 23 November 2019 (UTC)
 * , Thanks. I wasn't sure if individual pages were permitted at Category:Canadian politics stubs. Is that something I can do boldly, or do the stub sorting category changes require consensus? Doug Mehus T · C  23:12, 23 November 2019 (UTC)
 * - Not sure what you mean about individual pages... I'm guessing that the proposal ends up with Canada-parliamentary-group-stub, upmerged to ? Her Pegship (really?) 06:02, 24 November 2019 (UTC)

Vermont gubernatorial election stubs
A search for the phrase "Vermont gubernatorial election" within the list of articles in Category:Vermont election stubs reveals that the phrase occurs 67 times, meaning that there are 67 stub articles about Vermont gubernatorial elections. Because the common threshold of articles necessary to merit the creation of a stub category is 60, this suggests that creating a subcategory of Category:Vermont election stubs specifically for stubs about Vermont gubernatorial elections could be in order.

Split 'Australian rules biography, 1900s birth stubs' by year
Currently, Category:Australian rules biography, 1900s birth stubs has over 1000 articles in it. I propose that it be split by year of birth (1900-1909). Given the scope of the pages to edit (all 1000+), I also propose that implement the sub-categorization if this proposal passes. In comments, please specify if you support the stub templates but not the bot edits. Thanks, --DannyS712 (talk) 07:33, 4 November 2019 (UTC)

 * Just an observation that this stub category is down to 480 articles, but I don't see any per-year stub subcats. Her Pegship (I'm listening) 16:25, 18 December 2019 (UTC)
