This is a '''stub template''', used for articles containing few sentences of text and lack of encyclopedic coverage of a subject, usually called '''stubs'''.
This is a '''stub template'''. A brief explanation of these templates follows; for full details, please consult [[Wikipedia:Stub]].
 
=== What is a stub? ===
A stub is an article containing only a few sentences of text which is too short to provide encyclopedic coverage of a subject.
 
=== How is a stub identified? ===
* If possible, try to find the most appropriate stub template for the article. A full list can be found at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/List of stubs]].
* More than one stub template may be used, if necessary, though no more than four should be used on any article.
* Place a stub template ''[[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Layout#Order of article elements|at the very end]]'' of the article, after the "External links" section, any navigation templates, and the category tags. As usual, templates are added by including their name inside double braces, e.g. <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{#ifeq:{{BASEPAGENAME}}|Stub documentation|Stub|{{BASEPAGENAME}}}}}}</code>.
 
=== Further information ===
 
Further information can be found at:
* [[Wikipedia:Stub]]
* [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting]]
 
New stub templates and categories (collectively "stub types") should not be created without prior proposal at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals]]. This allows for the proper coordination of all stub types across Wikipedia, and for the checking of any new stub type for possible problems prior to its creation.
