Forum:Stub Reform

As you all know we have a category for pages consisted to be small or "missing substantial information": Stubs. Over time this category has grown tremendously. Thus making it harder for editors to get pages expanded due to the largeness of the cat. I have a great solution to this: Split the stub category into multiple categories.

Splitting the category would make it easier for an editor to narrow down what they want to expand. Many wiki's have sub stub categories, and from what i can tell it works out for them. It should be split by the major categories we have:


 * Game Information
 * Attacks & moves
 * Comic information
 * Characters
 * Non-canon information
 * Film & Television
 * Real world

Each of these would have their own stub template & category (ex:, ) I know this sounds like a big change, but it will make things easier. When this is approved i will make another forum to organize re-cating all the stub pages. It may take a while but it certainly be done.

One more thing i suggest is to change stub template to a header template. This will grab the user's attention fast and it would be bigger. 10:26, April 22, 2013 (UTC)

Templates
I have already made the templates for the new stub categories. Fell free to change them.

General
(note: the general template would be used only on the page until someone puts the right stub cat. on the article)
