May 2016[change source]

Hello! Thank you for creating Category:Former municipalities of Graubünden. However, we normally need at least three pages in a category before it is created. Because categories are a way to group together similar articles, there is no need to create a new category for just one or two articles. If you think there might be more pages to add to the new category, please add them now. Thank you. Auntof6 (talk) 05:20, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Very short articles[change source]

@178.238.175.59: There is a conversation going on at Wikipedia talk:Notability in which you may be interested. One-line stub articles that consist only of a sentence or two that goes something like "X is a place in Y" are considered by some editors here as being too short to keep. There are suggestions they be converted to a single list article by geographical area while other editors suggest they be deleted. Some are of the opinion to keep them in the hopes other editors will improve them. You may want to participate in the discussion. Another alternative is you may want to expand the articles you have created to a paragraph or two to make sure they would not be affected. This is about very short geographical articles in general and not specifically any particular region, country or the editors who have created them. We have thousands of these. Just wanted to let you know so you wouldn't be taken off-guard if a decision is reached. Thank you. User:Rus793 (talk) 13:32, 12 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
