The guy who invented the wiki word 'stub', Jimmy Wales (founder of Wikipedia) phrases it like this: | |||
"A stub is an article containing only a few sentences of text which — though providing some useful information — is too short to provide encyclopedic coverage of a subject, and which is capable of expansion." | |||
While it may be that there isn't much canonical reference material, I think my recent edit to [[Mayor Scarredy]] proves that there's always something to add. Also, you're not the definitive source on either WonderWiki or Wonderland- I was asking the admins, not you. [[User:Emerald141|Emerald141]] 15:27, 31 May 2011 (CDT) | |||
