Quoting [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Stub|Wikipedia]]: "A '''stub''' is an article that, although providing some useful information, lacks the breadth of coverage expected".
 
On All The Tropes, the "breadth of coverage" for works includes at minimum the work's name, a spoiler-free description of the work, a handful of tropes,<ref>At least one mod sets "a handful" at a dozen; your mileage may vary.</ref> and at least two categories other than the default "Work" and "<nowiki>{{tl|PAGENAME}}</nowiki>". If it's an online work, a link to the work is also part of that minimum.
 
The "breadth of coverage" for creators includes a short biography of the creator (one paragraph will do) and either a list of the creator's most notable works or roles<ref>Yes, we know that [[All The Tropes:There Is No Such Thing as Notability|there is no such thing as notability]] here. A list of notable works or roles is a starting point, not an end goal.</ref> or a list of tropes often used or shown by the creator. (If the page has both, it might not be a stub any more.)
