__NOTOC__

===Usage===

{{hatnote|Use this rcat template on '''[[wp:mainspace|mainspace]] redirects only'''.}}

* This redirect category ([[WP:RCAT|rcat]]) template populates {{Cat|Redirects from transliterations}} and {{Cat|Unprintworthy redirects}} by default. At some point in the future, [[Jimmy Wales]] wants to make more {{diff|Wikipedia:Pushing to 1.0||1319195|printed versions}} of ''Wikipedia'' encyclopedia articles. Redirects from less common transliterations are not suitable for a printed version. In other words, they are [[wp:printworthiness|unprintworthy]].

* Add this rcat to a [[WP:Redirect pages|redirect page]] (''not'' a [[Help:talk-page|talk-page]] redirect) in the following manner:

<pre>

#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]

{{Rcat shell|

{{Redr|R from alternative transliteration}}

{{R unprintworthy}}

}}

</pre>

: Template {{tl|RedrRcat shell}} is an alias for the ''ThisRedirect iscategory a redirectshell'' template, which may be used to add upas to sevenmany 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 and its [[Template:This is a redirect/Comparison|comparison page]]. This rcat may also tag a redirect individually:

<pre>

#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]

Line 23 ⟶ 25:

* Use this rcat to tag any mainspace redirect that is a less common [[transliteration]] of the target or an associated spelling. If this rcat is used for a spelling that is associated with the target, and yet is not the target itself, then the unnamed parameter may be used as follows:

<pre>

{{Rcat shell|

{{Redr|R from alternative transliteration|p1=(associated spelling)}}

{{R unprintworthy}}

}}

</pre>

:''or'' if applied individually:

Line 29 ⟶ 34:

{{R from alternative transliteration|(associated spelling)}}

</pre>

: That will alter the wording to, "The prevalent spelling is '''{{maroonbig|(associated spelling)}}'''."

* This template sorts redirects to a subcategory of {{cat|Redirects from modifications}}, so template {{tl|R from modification}} should not be used with this template.
