At Wikibooks, stubs are short, apparently incomplete modules.

Typically, a stub appears because someone creates a new chapter or module of a book which is missing most of the intended content. Stubs tend to contain only a brief description or a suggestion of what the content should be. An incomplete table of contents is also a stub. (If the module only contains nonsense, then it can be marked for speedy deletion.)

Templates

You can use {{stub}} to mark any stub. When one section of a module is a stub, then you can use {{sectstub}}.

The {{incomplete}} marker does not add the page to any category. Some users prefer this to the stub marker.

Templates for specific books or WikiProjects

Notes:

• The green background is not a requirement for these templates.
• Template:Specific book stub is a meta-template for book stubs
