This article explains the concept of a stub, how to designate articles as a stub and how to create new stub categories.
What is a stub?[]
A stub is a small article, normally no more than one or two lines. It only introduces a topic, e.g.
Hypnagogia are experiences a person may experience when falling asleep. The person experiences visual, auditory or tactile hallucinations.
The article, obviously, requires more work to make it complete. You can designate it as a stub to show to other users that work is needed.
Stub category[]
For easy retrieval, all stubs are added to the Stubs category. This is to make those pages easier to locate and expand.
How can I make my article a stub?[]
That's easy. Just insert at the bottom of the article one of the lines shown to the right in the Available Stub Categories section below.
Available Stub Categories[]
| Category | Code to insert | Link to template |
| Generic stub | {{stub}} | Template:Stub |
| Lucid dreaming | {{Lucid dreaming-stub}} | Template:Lucid dreaming-stub |
| Induction | {{Induction-stub}} | Template:Induction-stub |
How do I make a new stub category?[]
Create a new article named Template:X-stub where X is the subject name.
When first editing it, follow this format:
''This article on [[X|Y]] is a [[LucidWiki:Stubs|stub]]. You can help [[Main Page|LucidWiki]] by [{{SERVER}}{{localurl:{{NAMESPACE}}:{{PAGENAME}}|action=edit}} expanding it]''
Where X is the main article on the subject and Y is the subject name.
Please then mention it in the Available Stub Categories section above.
