This is a documentation subpage for Template:R from template shortcut. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
Usage
- This redirect category (Rcat) template populates Category:Redirects from template shortcuts and, when the shortcut is in the Main (article) namespace, the Unprintworthy redirects category. At some point in the future, Jimmy Wales wants to make a printed version of the full Wikipedia encyclopedia, and template shortcut redirects from the Main namespace are not suitable for a printed version. In other words they are "unprintworthy".
- Add this Rcat to a redirect in the following manner:
#REDIRECT [[(Target page name)]] {{R from template shortcut}}
- This is in accord with instructions found at Wikipedia:REDCAT.
- Template {{This is a redirect}} may also be used to add this and other appropriate Rcats to a redirect.
- Use this Rcat on any redirect that is a shortcut to a template, which usually has a longer pagename. The redirect itself does not necessarily have to be a template, e.g., [[T:S]], which is a template shortcut that is actually in the Main (article) namespace. Such shortcuts are called pseudo-namespace redirects.
- It is important to note that it is the target that determines the difference between a template shortcut and any other shortcut. If the redirect is on a template page, and the target is not a template, then the redirect is not a "template shortcut".
- The following Rcats redirect here and can also be used:
Redirects
{{R temp short}}
{{R template short}}
{{R from template shortcuts}}
{{Redirect from template shortcut}}
