Available Stub Categories

Category	Code to insert

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.
