Forum:Mysterious "stub" class?

Hi, I've noticed on my wiki that sometimes links will be given a "stub" class by the parser. The link is made red by the wikia "StaticChute" package of css, for the monaco skin. And whoever made our default skin (a user by the name of Bigd56) also put some code in to highlight it; I don't know why - he's not at the wiki anymore, and I think he may have just been following a template for the dark skin css. In any case, it looks hideous. I can override the CSS if I want to, but I want to know what it's for first. The parser will make links to certain stub (the  tag) a "stub" class. Not all, just some, usually just certain groups of walkthroughs. Maybe the template on the page for navigation? And it seems that sometimes, after I visit a page, that link doesn't get it's "stub" class anymore. I tried logging out and, when not logged in, the links don't get the class. I've trawled through my prefs, and didn't find anything unusual there. You can view the page I'm talking about at this URL - make sure to use the default skin. I wonder if anyone else will see it as well. Could someone who knows something about the parser clarify this for me? Ti mer ootT • C • E 22:26, September 6, 2009 (UTC)
 * More info. I've figured out which pages have the class, which don't. If a page has just a template (or more), without passing it any parameters, it gets the class. So a page with "" gets the class, but pages with "", "Hello. I'm a stub.", or "Hello." don't get that class. I thought that by clicking on a link, I took away it's class. I noticed, however, that it only seemed that way: by clicking on a link, I gave it the a:visited pseudo-class, which activated another style, overrode the .stub class, and made it blue again. The highlighting wasn't part of our default skin, actually. I myself had added it to the css file, when the wiki was restyling the Stub template, which we had unwittingly given the stub class to. We styled that class in the stylesheet, and affected the links as well. So it seems to me that the parser gives links this class when the pages they link to are very meager in content, and so it gives a style similar to a redlink, to convey that. I would still like a response from the wikia staff, though, to make sure this is correct.
 * P.S. - while looking at wikia CSS files, I found a very strange glitch. Read my post here to see what I mean. And what makes world of warcraft so special, huh?!?! Ti mer ootT • C • E 23:13, September 6, 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay, I found it. It was in my prefs after all. It's a byte threshold of 70 bytes; I've disabled it now. You guys should really put a warning up for people trying to do their own CSS - it can confuse a guy if he as that feature enabled. Ti mer ootT • C • E 23:21, September 6, 2009 (UTC)
