comparison, when comparing wikipedias, as each language wikipedia
follows its own policies with regard to stub articles.<br></blockquote><br><br></div>Great.<br><br>Arjuna, Kindly share the policy of Telugu Wikipedia with regard to stub articles. I am sure other Indian language wikipedias will benefit from it.<br>
<br></blockquote><div>Stubs are not discouraged on Telugu wiki whether they are manually created or bot created. Since the measure is a ratio with number of articles in the denominator, the value will be low, when a Wikipedia has lots of stub articles. On Telugu wikipedia, the large number of village articles created in 2007-2008 with help of a bot skew this measure.<br>
