==Cleanup and deletions==
 
Just wanted to catch up on recent deletions. Most are junk and it's nice to see them eliminated. What's your position on the 'stub' articles -- basic frameworks like [[Ignition]], etc. Do you think they encourage future additions? Make the wiki look sloppy overall?--[[User:Jon|Jon]] 21:57, 9 June 2012 (MDT)

:I believe preexisting stubs that contain no information- if placed in the main Article categories- don't encourage contributions. Instead I believe the Article categories should contain only articles (or stubs) containing at least ''some'' information, the more the better. However, bare-bones stubs could be kept in the Undeveloped articles category so they don't disappoint someone doing a search for info.

:But that said, I am open to ANY tactic that would generate interest, and if compiling some basic framework stubs and submitting them into the active articles (I could add some info as a start) or the Undeveloped articles, or even as a category unto itself like "Articles needed" or some such (to be entered into the categories seen on the main page and/or the toolbar seen on each page), I'm all for it. By the way, I added a link to the Undeveloped articles on the Start a new article page.--[[User:Cobalt327|Cobalt327]] 23:53, 18 June 2012 (MDT)
