Built-in Mathematica Symbol

Stub

Stub
is an attribute which specifies that if a symbol is ever used, Needs should automatically be called on the context of the symbol.

A symbol is considered "used" if its name appears explicitly, not in the form of a string.

Names["nameform"] and Attributes["nameform"] do not constitute "uses" of a symbol.
