Template:R to systematic name
When used with the "Redirect category shell" (Rcat shell) template:
- Template {{Redirect category shell}} may be used to add one or more rcat templates, along with their parameters and categories, to a redirect. For more information, see the documentation page below.
When used by itself:
- To a systematic name: This is a redirect from a more commonly used name to a systematic name.
- Instead of tagging a redirect with this rcat, consider moving its common name to the target page. Then tag the resulting redirect with {{R from systematic name}}.
Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]Usage
- This redirect category (rcat) template populates both Category:Redirects to systematic names and Category:Unprintworthy redirects by default. In 2003, efforts were begun to support the Wikimedia Foundation's goal of increasing access and availability of Wikipedia articles in printed versions. Mainspace redirects from common names to systematic names are unsuitable for a printed version. In other words they are unprintworthy. Such redirects are likely eligible to use as a rename of the target page (see below).
- Add this rcat to a redirect page (not a talk-page redirect) in the following manner:
#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]
{{Rcat shell|
{{R to systematic name}}
{{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 to systematic name}}
- This is in accord with instructions found at WP:REDCAT.
- Use this rcat to tag all mainspace redirects to systematic names from more commonly used names. Rather than tagging a redirect with this rcat, consider moving its common name to the target page. Then tag the resulting redirect, which is left over from the page move, with {{R from systematic name}} (from systematic name).
