A stub is a Camera-Wiki article that needs to be expanded because it lacks one or more elements necessary to be a complete article. Stub articles are often created as placed-holders for later work or they may cover a subject about which little information is available. A stub is an important first step in the life of a wiki article.

You can help by expanding the article with addition information. Be sure to check the quality standards document to find out what types of information a complete article needs to contain. Once an article meets all the requirements in the quality standards guidelines, the {{Stub}} tag should be removed.
