Usage

Use this rcat template in any namespace.
#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]]

{{Redr|for convenience}}
Template {{Redr}} is an alias for the This is a redirect template, which may be used to add up to seven appropriate rcats to a redirect. For more information see the documentation on its template page and its comparison page. This rcat may also tag a redirect individually:
#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]]

{{R for convenience}}
This is in accord with instructions found at Wikipedia:REDCAT.
  • Use this rcat on any redirect in any namespace that is only intended to make it easier to get to the target page; the target is a more appropriate page for the purpose of the redirected page. For example, this may be a redirect from a title that is another name, a pseudonym, a nickname, or a synonym as is used colloquially, but is not currently an officially accepted term, though it may have been at one time. Since many types of redirects may fall into this category, this rcat should be reserved for redirects that do not fit other descriptions. This redirect leads to the title in accordance with naming conventions for common names and can help with searches and writing.

Printworthiness

  • In main-article namespace, many redirects for convenience are considered unprintworthy; however, there are also many that are printworthy, so there is no default sort for printworthiness. At some point in the future, Jimmy Wales wants to make more printed versions of Wikipedia encyclopedia articles.

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:
