Template:R to redirect template/doc

Usage

This rcat template is usually used on template pages; however, it can be used in any namespace.

• This redirect category (rcat) template populates Category:Redirects to redirect templates when placed on a template page. If placed on a page in any other namespace, then it will populate Category:Redirects to template from non-template namespace, instead. Also, if it is placed on a mainspace page, then it will populate Category:Unprintworthy redirects. At some point in the future, Jimmy Wales wants to make a printed version of the full Wikipedia encyclopedia. Redirects in main-article namespace that target pages in other namespaces are not suitable for a printed version. In other words such redirects are unprintworthy.
• Add this rcat to a redirect page in the following manner:

#REDIRECT [[(Target page name)]] {{R to redirect template}}

or the more intuitive:

#REDIRECT [[(Target page name)]] {{R from template}}

This is in accord with instructions found at WP:REDCAT.

• {{This is a redirect}} may also be used to add this and up to seven appropriate rcats to a redirect.
• Use this rcat on all redirects to "redirect category templates" (rcats).
