i really investigated this one and and asked people from #wikipedia and it seems, that the german wikipedia lacks the exact equivalent for 'stub'. i don't know what to do in such a case. since all correct translations don't make much sense according to [1]. my suggestion is to use 'Rohbau'. Any objections from the german speaking community?
