__TOC__
===Purpose===
This template supplements the redirect categorization that is presently done by the {{tl|This is a redirect}} template or by adding [[WP:RCAT|rcat]]s individually to redirects.  This template is the direct result of discussions about the benefits and the shortcomings of the ''This is a redirect'' template.
===Usage===
An unnamed parameter, {{para|1}}, has been introduced in this template and works as follows:
<pre>
{{Redirect category shell|1=
{{rcat 1}}
{{rcat 2}}
{{rcat 3}}
{{rcat N}}
}}
</pre>
...or more simply:
<pre>
{{Redirect category shell|
{{rcat 1}}
{{rcat 2}}
{{rcat 3}}
{{rcat N}}
}}
</pre>
"N" represents the highest number of rcats that can be used in this template, and at this point, I'm not sure there is a limit other than what might be a wikimarkup ceiling.
===Notes===
This is still undergoing tests.  The existing ''This is a redirect'' template can remain in its present form as, in some cases, a simpler choice for editors.  This new template can also be used for future tagging of redirects.  It needs only one parameter, {{para|1}} for as many rcat templates that are needed.  The following still needs work:
====Embed flaw====
* The {{para|embed|yes}} parameter must be used ''in each rcat'', e.g.,
<pre>
{{Redirect category shell|
{{R from move|embed=yes}}
{{R from alternative spelling|embed=yes}}
{{R printworthy|embed=yes}}
}}
</pre>
: And yes, I do consider this a "flaw", because editors should not have to add a redundant parameter each time they add an rcat to this template.
Testing has confirmed that the embed flaw can be eliminated.  To do so entails a major edit to each and every rcat template.  An example of the needed change can be viewed at {{tl|R from incorrect name/sandbox}}.
