Cyprinidae stubs reorganization
currently has a backlog of 812 pages, and not enough subcategories. Therefore, I propose to reorganize it like this: Current structure:

New structure:

This would involve creating the following categories/templates: And deleting these categories/templates: Andumé (talk) 20:07, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Alburninae-stub
 * Danioninae-stub
 * Gobioninae-stub
 * Leptobarbinae-stub

 * Tincinae-stub
 * Squaliobarbinae-stub
 * Xenocyprinae-stub
 * Xenocyprinae-stub
 * (Contents would be recategorized under )
 * Rasborinae-stub (maybe)
 * Support. And I have just added a suggestion: add, since Labeobarbus-stub has ca. 100 stub articles. Best, --Fadesga (talk) 22:29, 1 October 2023 (UTC)
 * But: some of the proposed categories are too small, so I would rather not create their corresponding stub categories:, , , . The templates can be created, but stay as part of the . --Fadesga (talk) 22:40, 1 October 2023 (UTC)
 * I agree. TBH after looking into it I would only create, , , Danioninae-stub, Gobioninae-stub, and Xenocyprinae-stub. The others are too small/unclear for it to be necessary. Andumé (talk) 02:45, 3 October 2023 (UTC)

Ukraine military stubs
I was sorting Ukraine stubs lately and noticed several military-related templates that seem redundant, all uperged to. I can't find any reference to these being proposed, but I'm certainly willing to give them a chance. I propose to contain Ukraine-mil-stub, as well as an upmerged Ukraine-mil-unit-stub (which would be assigned to all the articles currently wearing Ukrainian-navy-stub, Ukraine-minesweeper-stub, UGF-stub, USG-stub, and UAF-stub, after which I would propose those unused templates for deletion). Her Pegship (?) 21:55, 20 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Ukraine-mil-stub (22 articles)
 * Ukrainian-navy-stub (0 articles)
 * Ukraine-minesweeper-stub (1 article)
 * UGF-stub (23 articles) - Ukrainian Ground Forces
 * USG-stub (0 articles) - Ukrainian Sea Guard
 * UAF-stub (2 articles) - Ukrainian Air Force
 * Support. If you look at this Petcan result, there are some 200 articles that could be tagged as stub. --Fadesga (talk) 01:40, 22 September 2023 (UTC)

Several stub templates + categories to pull from Category:Japanese dam stubs
I've done some preliminary analysis leading up to this request, which appears in two sections of Category talk:Japanese dam stubs: "Stub sorting - sub-categories - some statistics" and "Stub sorting - sub-categories - using PetScan". I propose creating the following stub templates+categories with the prospective article populations listed below. The numbers are not 100% aligned between the PetScan results and the original stub cat article count, but they are within a dozen or so articles of each other. Creation and re-stubbing along these lines would effectively de-populate Category:Japanese dam stubs with its ~1,600 stubs into sub-cats of between about 140 and 350 articles each. Thanks for your review and approval. --User:Ceyockey ( talk to me ) 20:15, 16 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Tōhoku region dam stubs (241 articles); Tōhoku region is a group of six prefectures on Honshu island. Stub cat would go into Category:Tōhoku region and the source stub category
 * Kantō region dam stubs (136 articles); Kantō region is a group of seven prefectures, including Tokyo, on Honshu island. Stub cat would go into Category:Kantō region and the source stub category
 * Chūbu region dam stubs (344 articles); Chūbu region is a group of nine prefectures on Honshu island. Stub cat would go into Category:Chūbu region and the source stub category
 * Kansai region dam stubs (170 articles); Kansai region is a group of six to ten (?) prefectures on Honshu island. Stub cat would go into Category:Kansai region and the source stub category
 * Chūgoku region dam stubs (200 articles); Chūgoku region is a group of five prefectures on Honshu island. Stub cat would go into Category:Chūgoku region and the source stub category
 * Shikoku dam stubs (149 articles); Shikoku is the smallest of the four main islands of Japan and has four prefectures. Stub cat would go into Category:Shikoku region and the source stub category
 * Hokkaido dam stubs (168 articles); Hokkaido is the second largest island of Japan and has a single prefecture. Stub cat would go into Category:Dams in Hokkaido and the source stub category
 * Kyushu dam stubs (~220 articles); Kyushu is the third largest of Japans five islands and has seven prefectures. Stub cat would go into Category:Kyushu region and the source stub category
 * Strong support. The is a very large category indeed. --Fadesga (talk) 22:25, 16 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Support Seems reasonable.★Trekker (talk) 00:29, 19 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Support with correct template and category format, i.e. Tōhoku-dam-stub, not Tōhoku region dam stubs Her Pegship (?) 03:09, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

Alismatales stubs
Hi there. The is very large, with over 100 existing stubs (not yet assigned to a subcategory), in turn part of over 200 stub-category articles. So I propose the creation of. Best, --Fadesga (talk) 19:26, 16 September 2023 (UTC)

European politician stubs
The following templates from have over 60 transclusions:
 * Andorra-politician-stub (81) + Andorra-mayor-stub (1) + Andorra-diplomat-stub (6) = 88 total //
 * Belarus-politician-stub (64) //
 * Malta-politician-stub (56) + Malta-mayor-stub (1) + Malta-diplomat-stub (4) + Malta-MEP-stub (1) = 62 total //
 * Montenegro-politician-stub (54) + Montenegro-mayor-stub (4) + Montenegro-diplomat-stub (2) = 60 total //
 * NorthMacedonia-politician-stub (64) // (Macedonian appears to be the standard use for cat titles)

Moss stubs
The is very large, with over 600 stub articles. It contains Moss-stub with over 60 stubs so far; and further, the Petscan tool shows that the has over 600 articles. So I think it would make sense to create the, as a subcategory of. Regards, --Fadesga (talk) 00:53, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
