(Very short articles [...] and articles marked with a stub template should make up no more than 1/5th of all pages on the wiki.) Actually, I think Bloons Wiki could apply for spotlight if you reduce the amount of stubs. If you look at Special:ShortPages, only about ~50 pages are less than 300 bytes, so no problem there. You do have a lot of stubs, but I feel that some of your articles have stub templates that shouldn't. For example, the Ant Hill page is marked as a stub when I really wouldn't think of it as such. It has a picture, a template, some text, and is over 1000 bytes in size. True, it's not a huge article like you might see on some other wikis, but your wiki is about a game, so it's completely reasonable to have shorter articles for game concepts or single items, etc.

I'll also give you some links to some other websites which have some tutorials that can help you as well.
