Have I missed anything?
Hi! I haven't forgotten about WikiProject Stub sorting, but unfortunately, due to school and real life getting in the way, I haven't been able to create everything that I've proposed. I'm not asking you to create anything for me (you've done a lot already, and I respect/admire that), but I'm asking for the community as a whole to remind me about the categories and templates that I forgot about so I can start doing that, preferably in the form of links to closed proposals. I hope this request makes sense! - OpalYosutebito 『talk』 『articles I want to eat』 23:23, 3 July 2025 (UTC)
- I'm not great at doing internal links to specific places. So here is a list of the ones I can see:

- I hope that helps. I'm just looking at some other bits at the moment but hopefully will try and jump in and give you a hand to clear these some time. Waacstats (talk) 12:17, 4 July 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks! I'll be sure to do these now that summer school is over for me - OpalYosutebito 『talk』 『articles I want to eat』 13:55, 4 July 2025 (UTC)
- Sorry if it seems like progress is going really slow for me; I'm just tired of restubbing all of these French geography stubs... - OpalYosutebito 『talk』 『articles I want to eat』 16:01, 8 July 2025 (UTC)
- Gujarat river stubs could use filling. I'll do that tomorrow morning, most likely - OpalYosutebito 『talk』 『articles I want to eat』 04:01, 14 September 2025 (UTC)

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. I asked you yesterday to check your edits after changing stub template names on pages. You have continued to make disruptive edits, adding templates that do not exist. Please fix all of these pages. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:27, 15 August 2025 (UTC)
- Apologies, should not edit while tired. Waacstats (talk) 15:30, 15 August 2025 (UTC)
- Agreed. I learn that lesson at least once a month. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:56, 15 August 2025 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Category:Chinese swimming Olympic medalist stubs indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and removing the speedy deletion tag. Liz Read! Talk! 18:02, 16 August 2025 (UTC)
Template:Alkanederivative-stub has been nominated for deletion
Template:Alkanederivative-stub has been nominated for deletion. A discussion is taking place to decide whether it complies with the stub template guidelines. If you would like to participate in the discussion, you are invited to add your comments at the template's entry on the categories for discussion page. Thank you. Leyo 08:48, 26 August 2025 (UTC)

The article Merete Fjeldavlie has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Tagged for BLP sources for 18 years. Still has only one source. Fails the relevant notability guidelines.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Footballer stub sorting
Please can you slow down? You are flooding my watchlist, and making c. 20+ edits a minute means you cannot possibly be checking for accuracy. GiantSnowman 15:05, 26 October 2025 (UTC)

I'm trying to keep up
Hi there! There have been so many stub templates and categories created in the last few months, mostly by you and OpalYosutebito, but few of them seem to be making it onto the "official" stub type lists. I wonder if you could put a pause on stub type creation and help catch up with updating the stub type lists. (I'm also trying to add links on the archive page for 2025; they were included in previous years but I'm behind on this year due to the volume.) Thanks for any help you can lend - Her Pegship (?) 21:18, 17 November 2025 (UTC)

Hello, I'm ~2025-31245-28. I noticed that you recently removed all content from a page. Please do not do this. Blank pages are harmful to Wikipedia because they have a tendency to confuse readers. As a rule, if you discover a duplicate article, please redirect it to an appropriate existing page. If a page has been vandalised, please revert it to the last legitimate version. If you feel that the content of a page is inappropriate, please edit the page and replace it with appropriate content. If you believe there is no hope for the page, please see the deletion policy for how to proceed. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you wish to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. ~2025-31245-28 (talk) 16:12, 23 November 2025 (UTC)
Adding nonexistent templates
I fixed two pages to which you added nonexistent templates, but it looks like you did 30+ of these, adding the nonexistent {{TurośńKościelnageo-stub}}. Please fix these articles by using the correct stub template (it appears that you missed a hyphen). In the future, please use Preview and/or check your edits after publishing. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:22, 1 December 2025 (UTC)
- Again at Sir John Key, 1st Baronet. SLOW DOWN. Use Preview. Check your edits after saving. Stop making work for other editors. – Jonesey95 (talk) 16:24, 7 December 2025 (UTC)
