__NOTOC__

=== Usage ===

{{hatnote|Use this rcat template in '''any [[wp:namespace|namespace]]'''.}}

* This redirect category ([[WP:RCAT|rcat]]) template populates {{Cat|Redirects from duplicated articles}} and, when the redirect is in [[wp:mainspace|main-article]] namespace (mainspace), {{cat|Unprintworthy redirects}} is also populated by default. In 2003, efforts were begun to support the [[Wikimedia Foundation]]'s goal of increasing access and availability of ''Wikipedia'' articles in {{diff|Wikipedia:Pushing to 1.0||1319195|printed versions}}. Redirects from duplicated articles are not suitable for a printed version. In other words such redirects are [[WP:Printworthiness|unprintworthy]]. Some duplicated-article redirects are printworthy, in which case the first parameter may be used as in {{code|<nowiki>{{R from duplicated article|printworthy}}</nowiki>}} – see below.

* This redirect category ([[WP:RCAT|rcat]]) [[Help:Templates|template]] populates [[:Category:Redirects from duplicated articles]]. Add this template to a [[WP:Redirect pages|redirect page]] in the following manner:

{{info|image=Stop hand nuvola.svg|Please do not alter the printworthy settings of this rcat without first notifying the '''[[WP:Version 1.0 Editorial Team|Version 1.0 Editorial Team]]''', who are responsible for any and all materials, including redirects, that go into a printed version of ''Wikipedia''.}}

<code><nowiki>#REDIRECT [[</nowiki>''Target page name''<nowiki>]] {{R from duplicated article}}</nowiki></code>

* Add this rcat to a [[WP:Redirect pages|redirect page]] in the following manner:

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

<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">

* Template {{tl|This is a redirect}} may also be used to add this and up to six appropriate rcats to a redirect.

#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]]

* This rcat is to be used on an article that has been kept as a redirect to another article on the same or very similar subject matter. This is in order to preserve the redirect's edit history after the content was '''[[WP:Merging|merged]]''' into the target article.

* This rcat sorts [[wp:mainspace|mainspace]] article redirects into [[:Category:Unprintworthy redirects]] by default. At some point in the future, [[Jimmy Wales]] wants to make a <span class="plainlinks">[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Pushing_to_1.0&oldid=1319195 printed version]</span> of the full ''Wikipedia'' encyclopedia, and redirects from duplicated articles are not suitable for a printed version. In other words such redirects are [[WP:Printworthiness|unprintworthy]].

: and ''when the redirect is in article mainspace'', printworthiness should also be tagged:

<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">

#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]]

{{Rcat shell|

{{R from duplicated article}}

{{R unprintworthy}}

}}

</syntaxhighlight>

: or:

<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">

#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]]

{{Rcat shell|

{{R from duplicated article|printworthy}}

{{R printworthy}}

}}

</syntaxhighlight>

: Template {{tl|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:

<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">

#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]]

{{R from duplicated article}}

</syntaxhighlight>

: This is in accord with instructions found at [[WPWikipedia:REDCAT]].

Thisbe isdone in order to preserve the redirect's edit -history attributions of the redirect after the content was '''[[WP:Merging|merged]]''' into the target articlepage.

* Since these redirects are former articles, they have revision histories of prior edits; however, they should '''''not''''' be [[WP:HISTMERGE|history merged]] with their targets. This is because in most cases they were originally created in good faith as separate distinct articles, without the creator having knowledge of the pre-existence of another article on exactly the same subject. This situation is different from a [[WP:cut-and-paste move|cut-and-paste move]] where a history merge would be required.

* {{cat|Redirects from duplicated articles}} is a subcategory of {{cat|Redirects from merges}}, so {{tl|R from merge}} should ''not'' be used with this rcat.
