User blog:Grey Puffle/This page is a stub... really?

Don't you sometimes get tired of that template? I do. I think it is very annoying that people just keep marking pages as Stubs/Incomplete Pages. Some people don't actually really know when to mark a page as a stub, because nobody has actually ever made a page about when a page is a stub and when it isn't. The amount of existing stub pages is (in my opinion) too big, i have seen that on the page. I think we should organize an event, or just an "act" to limit the amount of stubs. Clearly, most of the pages marked are stubs are pages about clothing items. I think pages about clothing items should be (almost) never marked as stubs because you can't provide alot of information on just 1 single item.

'''I have made a few rules of what i think articles about clothing items must have before being marked as a stub. You can read them below.'''


 * 1. First of all, a page must contain a small description of what the item is. (this is marked below with 2 black !'s)
 * 2. Another important thing to an article is an infobox. Please add infoboxes whenever possible to an article (this is marked below with 2 blue ! 's)
 * 3. The first headline of a good clothing item article must be the History of the item. (this is marked below with 2 Red ! 's)
 * 3.1. An "Appereances" section is optional, but it can improve an article. However pages with no "appereances" headline still is not a stub. (this is marked below with 2 Green ! 's)
 * 5. A trivia section must also be included on every page. Even if you can only add 1 line to the trivia section, please create one. (this is marked below with 2 Purple ! 's)
 * 6. A gallery must be included on every item page and must contain at least 1 image including the clothing item. (this is marked below with 2 Yellow ! 's)
 * 7.The last requirement for a complete page about an item must be an SWF section. to quickly make a section like this using the template. For example if the ID of the item was 427, you would have to put  on the selected page. (this is marked with 2 Pink ! 's)

'''Now i will give an example of a page about an item that is a stub and that is not a stub. The rules above will be marked with colored !'s .'''

First i will show an example of a page about an item that is not a stub and fullfilled all the 7 above rules. In this case it is the Red Propeller Cap. It begins under this line :

!This is the infobox (it completes to rule 2)!

End of rule 2. !This is the small description mentioned in rule 1!

The Red Propeller Cap is a Head Item on Club Penguin given away during the 2006, 2008 & 2010 April Fools' parties. It was the first propeller cap. When dancing with no other clothes on, players float from the ground. It also works while wearing a Jet Pack and walking a Green Puffle. !This is the end of rule 2!

History
!This is the Histroy headline, as mentioned in rule 3!

The Red Propeller Cap first came out in the April Fools' Party 2006. Soon afterward it appeared in secret agent missions, with characters such as Rookie wearing it. The Red Propeller Cap remained an icon in Club Penguin, seeing as it was one of the rarest items that had not been reintroduced, however the Red Propeller Cap came back in the 2008 April Fool's Day Party, removing its once rare status. The Red Propeller Cap at its peak was during 2006-2007 (before the introduction of the Blue Propeller Cap); penguins seen with it were often joined and the ability to hover was sought after for during the period. The popularity of the item was looking for an all time low until it was popularized in secret missions. Since is not reintroduced since 2010, it is now a rare item(again). !End of rule 3!

Trivia
!This is the Trivia section, as mentioned in rule 5! !End of Rule 5!
 * It is the fourth item in Club Penguin that has a special move.
 * Until the April Fools' Party 2011, you could impersonate Rookie wearing this item. Although now, he wears a special and rare item, a red version of the Hawaiian Shirt,
 * It did not return at the April Fools' Party 2012. Instead, it was the Blue Propeller Cap that made its return, making it the rarest propeller hat.

Glitches
!NOTE THIS SECTION IS OPTIONAL!
 * Previously, there was a now resolved glitch that newly added clothes did not appear on the screen of the players penguin until the Edit Player box was closed, so players could still get the effects of the cap without it appearing on screen made it look like the players penguin was levitating, although only the player themselves could see this happening.
 * There was a glitch where you can remove the propeller cap while flying in the air and still fly. (This glitch no longer works)
