Note to archivers
The archives
A new page exists that is meant to assist in the preservation of information leading to the creation of stub-types: Wikipedia:WikiProject_Stub_sorting/Criteria/Creations. Discussions from Archives 1-6 and 8 have been copied and edited to this page; editing consists of removing text that is not aimed at the rationale for creation, the usage guidelines for the stub-type, or the position in the stub hierarchy. This is meant as a reference page to assist in using existing stub-types and in creating new ones. Courtland 02:14, 2005 May 16 (UTC)
