The phrase "a stand when no one else" is not correct in English as it is incomplete and lacks clarity.
It could be used in a context where someone is discussing taking a position or making a decision when others are not doing so, but it needs to be completed for proper usage.
Example: "He decided to take a stand when no one else would support the cause."
Alternatives: "take a stand when others won't" or "stand up when no one else does".
