==August Project of the Month==
The August Project of the Month comes to us from a suggestion made by [[User:Beds|Beds]]. She noticed that our list of [[:Category:Stubs|stub articles]] is growing quite long. It seems that we've added many pages but have neglected to fill them with all the information we can. The result is that we now have (at last count) 534 articles in the Stubs category, with even more articles within the different stub subcategories. To put this in perspective, we have an article count (in the main namespace) of 8,319 articles (as of today). This means that ''at least'' 6.4% of our encyclopedia is made up of inadequately short articles.
 
Fortunately, there are many ways to address stub articles.
