short articles in the French wikipedia use the term "ébauche", which means according to my online translation "draft". German wikipedia uses "unvollständig", meaning "incomplete".
I tend to think of a draft as something that could be as much as almost complete, or not, and a stub as just a beginning.
Ébauche can be translated as a sketch or an outline.
Stub often means placeholder (i don't know how to translate this).
Babelfish says "stub" -> "moignon" (!)
Why not "Brouillon"? Something you draw in a rush "sur le coin de la table" and almost illegible?
"Ébauche" means something much more elaborated, although not completed yet.
