[edit] Stub?

I wouldn't want to override a decision while I don't know much about the article's topic, so I won't change, only ask:
Is there a specific reason that this isn't marked as a stub?
I'm sure Senior Monterroso didn't get all this recognition for one 1-sentence story, as interesting as its concept may be, but the lack of other information or expansion on other information creates the illussion that most of what that man has created was this one sentence.
Until someone expands on it, I believe it deserves a "stub" tag to avoid such confusion..

p.s. just an anecdote: Technically, since the whole story is one sentence, quoting the whole sentence isn't "fair use". But I believe Wikipedia will be forgiven for that ;-)
(i'm joking of course)

[edit] shortest story

Is Monterroso's story really the shortest ever? Ernest Hemingway once wrote a story that read: "For sale: baby shoes, never worn." That's six words. See Flash fiction. Leo44 (talk) 22:24, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
