Taking the "Stub" verbage off this article
Hi Melungeon,

We who are working in the Wiki FamilySearch arena would like to use Coahoma County, Mississippi for a Featured Article on the Main Page of the Wiki. We cannot use it until the word "stub" is out of the heading; if you feel the article is complete enouogh for a Featured Article please consider removing the word "stub."

Thank you!

Joy,

I went into the Coahoma County page and I do not see any provision for removing the stub reference from the heading. If this needs to be removed, then Family Search needs to provide some instructions somewhere as to how to remove it. I'm not even sure if this is the proper way to respond to your message, and the editing help provided in Family Search Wiki is far from ideal.

P.S. The only thing I could find about removing the stub reference is the following, which is gibberish to me. If this is the way to remove a stub reference, then I have no immediate plans to remove it:

Hidden categories are not hidden on category pages. You can view hidden categories on all pages by adding the following code to your monobook.css (or whatever skin you use): &lt;source lang="css"&gt;.catlinks-allhidden, .mw-hidden-cats-hidden { display: block; }&lt;/source&gt;

Stub removal
Helo Melungeon

We at the FamilySearch Wiki would like to use this article, Jefferson County, Missouri, for a featured article on the Main Page of the Wiki. However, the word "stub" appears at the very top of the page. If you feel there is enough content to give researchers a good place to work from - we need YOU to remove the word "stub" from the article before we can feature it. We would also like to take this opportunity to thank you for all you have done for the FamilySearch Wiki effort.

Thank you for your consideration.

I would remove it if I had any idea how to do so. That section of the page does not appear when I click on "edit page."
