Usage

#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]]

{{R from alternative name}}
This is in accord with instructions found at Wikipedia:REDCAT.

  • Use this rcat on all redirects from a title that is another name, a pseudonym, a nickname, or a synonym.

Printworthiness

  • In main-article namespace, many other-name redirects are considered printworthy; however, there are many others that are thought to be unprintworthy, so there is no default sort for printworthiness. At some point in the future, Jimmy Wales wants to make a printed version of the full Wikipedia encyclopedia. Some rcats automatically populate either Category:Printworthy redirects or Category:Unprintworthy redirects by default. Others, like this rcat, do not, and that means it is up to editors to choose which of those categories, Printworthy or Unprintworthy, is appropriate and should be populated. The rcats that are used separately to populate those categories are:
Please click on each one for more details and guidance.
Examples:
{{Redr|from surname|from alternative name|printworthy}}

  and

{{Redr|from move|from modification|from short name|unprintworthy}}
Either {{This is a redirect}} or its alias/shortcut, {{Redr}}, may be used.
