I encourage others to mount similar guerrilla template code moving campaigns on other semi-permanent meta templates ({{stub}} and its variants is a lost cause
- *way* too many).
I think {{stub}} needs to be on the main article space anyway. If it is on the talk namespace, many people, not knowing the Wiki format, will pass straight over it, think "this site is rubbish - there's so little here", and we will lose contributors. Having {{stub}} on the article namespace encourages people to edit who might otherwise not. {{wikify}} and {{cleanup}} are different - they do not encourage new contributors.
