Template:Uw-directcat: Difference between revisions

[[Image:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Greetings! It appears that you have been directly adding stub categories to articles{{<includeonly>safesubst:</includeonly>#if:{{{1|}}}|&#32;such as [[:{{{1}}}]]}}. Stub categories should only be added by templates, as explained at [[Wikipedia:Stub]]. These templates automatically add any relevant stub categories. Adding the category directly creates problems if there is a need at some later date to change stub category names or to split stub categories. Using stub templates is also recommended as they add prompting messages to editors reading stub articles. Your work in sorting these stub articles is very useful, but it would be even more useful and greatly appreciated if you could use stub templates to do so! Thank you. {{{2|<small>(This message is a boilerplate, left here as a courtesy by [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting]], and should not be considered personal in nature.)</small>}}}<!-- Template:Uw-directcat --><noinclude>
