The result of the debate was delete

Never proposed, and cuts through the idea of splitting military subjects by country and era. Not sure how useful it would be for that reason, and would suggest deletion - but if the decision is to keep it the template will definitely need to be changed to {{mil-intelligence-stub}} or {{mil-intell-stub}}. Grutness...wha? 01:11, 11 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for a newbie mistake! Military intelligence is sufficiently specialized, yet relevant to every country's military (and the military of every era, aside from the current advanced technology) that it might be appropriate to keep it... but I would welcome feedback. Thanks for your help. JPatrickBedell 01:27, 11 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

We could definitely use a stub type for spies and espionage, though as not all such activities are carried out by members of the military, I'd prefer one with a narrower focus such as {{espionage-stub}} or {{spy-stub}}. If kept, {{mil-intel-stub}} with only one "l" please. Caerwine Caer’s whines 01:30, 11 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I deliberately thought intell, since intel-stub makes me think of something else. Grutness...wha? 05:30, 12 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'd agree with you except for the mil- prefix and the fact that intel existed long before Intel. Better no abbreviation at all than using one that gets about 10% the hits of the other (altho the unabbreviated version vastly outhits them both).

The result of the debate was rename

Rename to "Anime and manga character stubs". It's standard to use "anime and manga" instead of "manga and anime" (and it's also logical, "anime" coming first alphabetically). This is part of a larger CfD entry located here to rename a lot of categories that use "manga and anime" instead of "anime and manga".

Note - this will also affect the Template:Anime-char-stub. The template doesn't need to be renamed, but the text needs to be changed from "This article is about a fictional character found in manga or anime is a stub" to "This article is about a fictional character found in anime or manga is a stub" --`/aksha 03:25, 11 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support, provided the perm parent's CFR goes that way. (On the word order in the template, strongly apathetic.) Alai 23:37, 11 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support if the CFR goes through. May be worth fiddling the wording to reflect the category name, too. Grutness...wha? 05:39, 12 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Note - The CFR has now closed with a consensus to rename. the wub "?!" 19:02, 22 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
