Yes, but I guess the same does not apply to 20000 substubs about towns in Poland and France, in a Wikipedia in a language spoken by some thousand people in Africa...

Creating a stub entry for every little town in the country where the language is spoken, or for every semi-famous person that speaks the language, can fill gaps that other websites in the same language didn't cover. The importance of this effect depends heavily on how many other websites already exist in the language.
That's a very important point! Stubs are underestimated by speakers of larger languages, but for those who speak a smaller language even a stub information is often a good piece of knowledge. For some it can be useful enough as it is, for others it can be a challenge to write in *their mother tongue* a larger article.
That's why I am interested in the project, Milos is talking about.
