The result of the debate was do not create.

Proposing template {{RiversState-gov-stub}} to add all government-related stubs of Rivers State to Category:Nigerian government stubs. There's a possibility that government related articles of Rivers State will grow beyond 60 soon and will need a category of its own. Thanks. Stanleytux (talk) 14:42, 21 May 2015 (UTC)

As Category:Nigerian government stubs contains only 151 articles in all, and Category:Rivers State stubs only 88 (+64 -geo- stubs), it appears the proposed stub type is still not necessary. Her Pegship (talk) 19:09, 27 June 2016 (UTC)

@Drauv: Which articles do you intend using this for? See WP:WSS/P#Proposing new stub types – procedure, particularly item 3. --Redrose64 (talk) 18:42, 16 May 2015 (UTC)

@Redrose64: Article on David Hair, a fantasy author from New Zealand. Currently working on as a user-space article. --Drauv

That's one, we really need another 59. --Redrose64 (talk) 07:25, 17 May 2015 (UTC)

Although this is stale, for the record, we have Category:American fantasy writer stubs, which means this may actually be a useful idea. Could help display intersections to potentially be given their own categories down the line. Will need further thought, though, especially as I'm not sure the naming of that is right -- British writer stubs went and diffused by using Category:British novelist stubs, so there's a bit of inconsistency in our stub tree...
