fanlore | Stub September: come and join the party! 🎉

This month is Stub September, and you’re invited! From September 12th through 25th, you can expand short articles on Fanlore to earn party-themed badges in honor of the OTW’s 15th birthday.

But what IS a “stub”? It’s a term we - and other wikis - use to describe a very short page with little to no information on it. Many stubs contain only an introductory sentence or two - but they’re still hugely valuable to Fanlore, as they can all be added to and built on!

Adding a few words is enough to expand a stub - and earn you a badge in Stub September! You can even browse our handy stub category to find pages to add to.

Want to help make more Fanlore pages, but can’t think of a lot to say? You can make a stub and give other editors something to add to! Anyone with a Fanlore account that’s at least four hours old can create a page - check out our Starting a new page Help page to learn more!

There’s five party-themed badges to collect in Stub September; can you earn them all? Learn more about how to participate in our guide to Stub September! If this is your first time editing Fanlore, you can also check out our New Visitor Portal and tutorial pages to learn how to get started.

Happy editing, and if you have any questions, leave a comment and we'll get right back to you!
