A stub is an article or section on OrthodoxWiki which is underdeveloped. It often consists of only one paragraph, a rough outline, or incomplete information.
If you find a stub on OrthodoxWiki, you can either fix it by editing it to include more material or at least calling it to others' attention, marking it as a stub by including the {{stub}} tag in the article or section body and including [[Category:Stubs]] at the bottom of the article text.
When you put the {{stub}} tag in the article and save it, you'll see the following message included:
This article or section is a stub (i.e., in need of additional material). You can help OrthodoxWiki by expanding it.
