I find some users abuse "One-Line" tag when we have better options such as "Stubs" and "Work In Progess" (though WIP is also abused).

we don't want short articles but neither should we rush to delete them on sight, it discourages slower editors, people who may have difficulty translating or so on.. One Line should be for the laziest of the lazy style articles, such as:

"x is a bad guy from " - then no other info.

I've seen some articles given "One-Line" status that are well and truly just "Stubs".

also admins and helpers shouldn't be rapidfire deleting One-Line articles - give them at least three days to improve, then purge them.. check the article's history before deleting them as well, so you are sure they are 1) older than three days and 2) not been falsely tagged or tampered with (some people delete large chunks of pages, which other users come across and think are One-Liners because they didn't check the history).
