Usage

edit
  • Add this rcat to a redirect page (not a talk-page redirect) in the following manner:
#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from name with title}}
{{R unprintworthy}}
}}
Template {{Rcat shell}} is an alias for the Redirect category shell template, which may be used to add as many appropriate rcats as needed, usually from one to seven, along with their parameters, to a redirect. For more information see the documentation on its template page. This rcat may also tag a redirect individually:
#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]

{{R from name with title}}
This is in accord with instructions found at WP:REDCAT.
  • Typical use is where [[Title Surname]] is a redirect to [[Firstname Surname]] or [[Firstname Surname (qualifier)]]. A redirect from Cardinal Wolsey to Thomas Wolsey should be tagged with this rcat, since the person is often referred to as "cardinal" and is the only person named "Wolsey" to have held that title.
  • By default, this template places redirects in the Unprintworthy redirects category. To tag and categorize a redirect as printworthy use the unnamed parameter in the following manner:
{{Rcat shell|
{{R from name with title|1=printworthy}}
{{R printworthy}}
}}
or the 1= may be omitted:
{{Rcat shell|
{{R from name with title|printworthy}}
{{R printworthy}}
}}
and if applied individually:
{{R from name with title|printworthy}}
{{R printworthy}}
That will subdue the Unprintworthy redirects category and place the redirect in Category:Printworthy redirects.
