Usage
[change source]- This redirect category (rcat) template populates Category:Redirects from incomplete names and, when the redirect is in main-article namespace (mainspace), then Category:Unprintworthy redirects is also populated by default. In 2003, efforts were begun to support the Wikimedia Foundation's goal of increasing access and availability of Wikipedia articles in printed versions. Mainspace redirects that are incomplete names are not suitable for a printed version. In other words they are unprintworthy.
- Add this rcat to a redirect page in the following manner:
#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]] {{Rcat shell| {{R from incomplete name}} }}
- and when the redirect is in article mainspace, printworthiness should also be tagged:
#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]] {{Rcat shell| {{R from incomplete name}} {{R unprintworthy}} }}
- Template {{Rcat shell}} is an alias for the Redirect category shell template, which may be used to add as many appropriate rcats as needed, usually from one to seven, along with their parameters, to a redirect. For more information see the documentation on its template page. This rcat may also tag a redirect individually:
#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]] {{R from incomplete name}}
- This is in accord with instructions found at WP:REDCAT.
- Use this rcat to tag any redirect in any namespace that is titled with an incomplete name. It targets a page that is titled with the complete name of the subject. If the redirect is a short name, not an incorrect, incomplete name, for example, Elvis for Elvis Presley, then use {{R from short name}} instead. Examples of incomplete names are:
