It's mainly based on what sort of wiki you're editing, what this article is about, how much of the available info is included there, and also how "big" this article is relative to similar articles in that wiki.

I'll give you an example from one of the wikis that i contribute to, the Club Penguin Wiki. About 14% of all articles are about furniture items from the game. These pages usually only contain description about the item, an image of it, release history and links to its game files, but the size of a stub furniture page isn't really smaller than a well-expaded article's; they are both about 1kb long. On the other hand, a 1kb-long page about a character from the game is probably missing tons of info, and on this case, the article's size could be an indication for its quality.

So these are some of the points in determining if a given article is not a stub:
 * Is all of the info available there/ directed to using main?
 * Does the article fulfill the wiki's standards for that particular page type?
 * How much expanded is it relative to similar articles?
