__NOTOC__

===Purpose===

This redirect category ([[WP:RCAT|rcat]]) template automatically sorts redirects into two categories:

# {{Cat|Redirects to user namespace}} – for [[WP:CNR|cross-namespace redirects]], and

# {{Cat|Unprintworthy redirects}} – only redirects from the [[wp:Main namespace|main-article namespace]] (mainspace)

:* At some point in the future, [[Jimmy Wales]] wants to make more <span class="plainlinks">[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Pushing_to_1.0&oldid=1319195 printed versions]</span> of ''Wikipedia'' encyclopedia articles. Mainspace redirects that target pages in the user namespace are not suitable for a printed version. In other words they are [[wp:Printworthiness|unprintworthy]].

This rcat is '''''not''''' for use on redirects that are in the user namespace. If placed on a redirect that is a user page, it will not populate the expected categories; it will instead be sorted to {{Cat|Pages with templates in the wrong namespace}}.

Line 23:

* Template {{tl|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 a page in the user namespace from a page ''outside'' of the user namespace. This rcat should ''never'' be used on a redirect in the user namespace that targets any other page.

:: ''As noted, this rcat may be used to categorize a user '''talk''' page that targets a user page.''
