The
Javanese is a recognized
breed of
cat. Javanese have a long, silky coat, that comes in a variety
of colors. These cats are highly intelligent, and resemble the
Balinese.
Javanese are very social cats which will become
depressed if they are left alone too often. They are generally
very playful pets, and are markedly good at jumping. However, they
do have a tendency to become overweight if they do not receive
adequate exercise. Javanese are also quite vocal, and most will
"talk" for no particular reason.
The cat, also called the domestic cat or house cat, is a small
carnivorous mammal of the subspecies Felis silvestris catus. Its
most immediate pre-domestication ancestor is believed to be the
African wild cat, Felis silvestris lybica. The cat has been living
in close association with humans for somewhere between 3,500 and
8,000 years[1].
There are dozens of breeds of cat, some hairless or tailless as a
result of mutations, and they exist in a variety of different
colors. They are skilled predators and have been known to hunt over
one thousand different species for food. They are also intelligent
animals, and some can be trained or learn by themselves to
manipulate simple mechanisms such as lever-handled doors and flush
toilets.
They communicate by calling ("meow"/sites/catbreedadvice.com/sites/catbreedadvice.com/"miaou"), purring, hissing,
growling, chirping, clicking, grunting, and about a hundred other
vocalizations [3] and body language. Cats in colonies use a mix of
vocalizations and body language to communicate with each other.
Because the domestication of the cat is relatively recent, cats may
also still live effectively in the wild, often forming small
colonies. The cat's association with humans leads it to figure
prominently in the mythology and legends of several cultures,
including those of the ancient Egyptians, ancient Chinese, and
Norse.
Essential informationn
A stub is an article that is too short to be genuinely useful, but
not so short as to be useless. In general, it must be long enough to
at least define the article's title, which generally means 3 to 10
short sentences. Note that even a longer article on a complicated
topic may be a stub; conversely, a short article on a topic of
narrow scope may not be a stub. However in reality many articles
which are labelled as stubs are much longer than that. You can help
Wikipedia by removing inappropriate stub notices.
Another way to define a stub is an article so incomplete that an
editor who knows little or nothing about the topic could improve its
content after a superficial Web search or a few minutes in a
reference library. An article that can be improved by only a rather
knowledgeable editor, or after significant research, may not be a
stub.
Sizeable articles which lack wikification or copy editing are
generally not considered stubs, and the normal procedure is for one
of the cleanup tags to be added to them, instead. Note that small
articles with little information may end up being nominated for
deletion or be merged into another relevant article. Wikipedia is
not a dictionary, but has a sister project—the Wiktionary—which is.
If your article is very short consider either moving it to the
Wiktionary or, even better, adding some more information to it.
Removing stub status
Once a stub has been properly expanded and becomes an article rather
than just a stub, you or any editor may remove the stub tag from it.
No administration action or formal permission is needed.
Categorizing stubs
After writing or finding the short article, the editor should insert
what is called a stub template, which makes it possible for the
article to be flagged as a stub. By convention, these stub templates
should be placed near the bottom of the article. Because the stub
identification is rendered on an article page prior to hardcoded
items like categories and inter-Wiki language links, the template is
usually placed at the end of the article proper, after the External
links section if it exists, but before categories or inter-Wiki
links. However, since the stub category is the least important of
the article's categories, some Wikipedians prefer to place the
template after the category tags, so that the stub category will
appear last.
Stub templates are composed of two distinct parts: first, a short
message stating that said article is a stub of a particular kind and
encouraging editors to expand it; second, a category link, which
places the article in a stub category, together with other stubs
with the same subject as it.
The need for stub categories arose when the main stub
category—{{stub}}—became so full that it got quite hard to find
articles on a specific topic. With stub categories, if an editor is,
for example, a biologist, he or she can look for articles with the
tag {{biology-stub}} on said category and easily find stubs to which
they can add, subtract, modify, etc.
In general, the naming convention for stub templates is topic-stub;
for a complete list of these templates, refer to
Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Stub types. When marking articles
as stubs, please be as precise and accurate as you possibly can. It
saves other editors a lot of work further down the road. If an
article overlaps a number of potential categories, more than one
stub template may be used, but it is strongly recommended that only
those relating to the subject's main notability be used. In cases
such as biographies, it is also desirable to indicate the subject's
nationality. This may be in the form of an additional template, such
as {{Egypt-bio-stub}}, or as a refinement of another template, for
example {{US-artist-stub}}. Stub-related activities are centralized
on Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting (shortcut WP:WSS). The project
should be your main reference when it comes to this subject.
Ideal stub article
When you write a stub article, it is important to bear in mind that
its main interest is to be expanded, and that thus it ideally
contains enough information to give a basis for other editors to
expand upon. Your initial research may be done either through books
or through a reliable search engine such as Google, Yahoo!, Clusty
or MSN Search. You may also contribute with knowledge you have
acquired from other sources, but it is useful to conduct a small
amount of research beforehand, in order to make sure that your
version of the facts is correct and from a neutral point of view.
Begin by giving a definition or description of the topic in
question. Avoid fallacies of definition. Since at times definitions
are impossible, you should write a clear and informative description
of the subject. State, for example, what a person is famous for,
where a place is located and what it is known for, or state the
basic details of an event and when it happened.
Next, you should try to expand this basic definition. The previously
mentioned research methods will often fetch you enough information
for you to be able to expose the basic points of the subject. Once
you have a couple of well-structured and well-written sentences, you
should internally link relevant words, so that users unfamiliar with
the specifics of a subject can understand what is written on the
article. Avoid linking words needlessly; in case you are in doubt,
you should use the preview button and try reading the article from
the point of view of somebody who has had no exposure to information
regarding the subject. If no word seems hard to comprehend or
relevant enough, simply do not link anything.
Once you have submitted the article, there are a number of courses
it may take. An editor might get interested in it and develop it
further, or you could expand it yourself once you have found greater
information about the subject or once you have more free time on
your hands.
Anyone can contribute to complete the stub.
