Almost every article in Wikipedia could do with some expansion - the aim of Wikipedia is to have every article at featured status. This page was for listing those articles of any length for which there is a specific request or longer (non-stub) articles which are still embarrassingly short or insufficient for an encyclopedia of the stature to which Wikipedia aspires.
Articles to list here:
- Stubs - Articles that are very short. These should be tagged with {{stub}}, or a topic-specific stub tag. Since stubs by definition are tagged as being too short for their subject, the use of the {{expand}} tag on stubs should always be accompanied by a detailed explanation of what needs to be done.
- Longer articles that still need expansion. Be sure to tag these {{expand}} when you nominate them.
- Sections in particular need of expansion within an article may be tagged with {{expandsection}}.
Articles not to list here:
- Articles only needing an image - Use Requested images instead.
- Articles that do not yet exist - Use Wikipedia:Requested articles instead.
- Articles that need fixing - Use Wikipedia:Cleanup instead.
Cleanup needed
Please help remove listings which have already been expanded (see the tastklist below). To determine this, you can check the article's history tab. Compare the length of the article from when the request was posted here to its current length. If there was a request for expansion of a particular point, see if this was done. Articles that have been expanded should have the {{expand}} tag removed from the talk page.
Urgent
For the most urgently needed article expansions, it may make sense in addition to listing the article here to find the project page of an appropriate Wikipedia:WikiProject or ask for help from a particular editor who has made contributions in that field before.
Archive
The list of articles needing expansion has been split off for archival purposes and to prevent further additions. Please do not add new articles to it.
