 | This category is maintained by WikiProject Stub sorting. Please propose new stub templates and categories here before creation. |
 | This category is for stub articles relating to geographical locations. You can help by expanding them. To add an article to this category, use ((geo-stub)) instead of ((stub)). |
When appropriate, an even more specific template should be used from among those noted below.
- Articles about specific buildings and structures use the ((Struct-stub)) template and sub-category, or one of its subtypes.
- Articles about topographical terms used in geography use the ((Topography-stub)) template and sub-category, or one of its subtypes.
- Articles about other terminology used in geography use the ((Geo-term-stub)) template and sub-category, or one of its subtypes.
- Articles about roads, streets, and highways use the ((Road-stub)) template and subcategory, or one of its subtypes.
Country-specific templates
Most countries now have country-specific stub templates and categories, in the form ((CountryName-geo-stub)) and Category:Country Name geography stubs (for example, ((SriLanka-geo-stub)) and Category:Sri Lanka geography stubs). Many of these countries are further broken down by regions. A full list of these categories and templates can be found at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Stub types/Geographical. A list of the exceptions to this naming rule can be found below:
- ((UK-geo-stub)) for the United Kingdom
- ((US-geo-stub)) for the United States
- ((Maldives-geo-stub)) for the Maldive Islands (many island groups follow this pattern - Bahamas, Marshalls, Solomons, etc.)
- ((DRCongo-geo-stub)) and ((RCongo-geo-stub)) for the Congo Democratic Republic and the Republic of the Congo respectively
- ((Micronesia-geo-stub)) for the Federated States of Micronesia
- ((NorthMacedonia-geo-stub)) for the Republic of North Macedonia
- ((SaintVincent-geo-stub)) for Saint Vincent and the Grenadines
- ((SaintKittsNevis-geo-stub)) for Saint Kitts and Nevis (several countries follow this pattern - Bosnia and Herzegovina, Turks and Caicos Islands, São Tomé and Príncipe, etc.)
- ((SouthGeorgia-geo-stub)) for South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands
- ((US-Pacific-geo-stub)) for the United States' Unincorporated Territories in the Pacific
NB: ((Antarctica-geo-stub)) is used for all of the Antarctic covered by the Antarctic Treaty except the subantarctic islands, which use ((Subantarctic-geo-stub))
