Usage
- This redirect category (rcat) template populates Category:Redirects to titles with ASCII and, when the redirect is in the main-article namespace (mainspace), Category:Unprintworthy redirects is also populated by default. At some point in the future, Jimmy Wales wants to make more printed versions of Wikipedia encyclopedia articles. Mainspace redirects from titles with non-ASCII characters are not suitable for a printed version. In other words they are unprintworthy.
- Add this rcat to a redirect in the following manner:
#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]]
{{Redr|to ASCII}}
- Template {{Redr}} is an alias for the This is a redirect template, which may be used to add up to seven appropriate rcats to a redirect. For more information see the documentation on its template page and its comparison page. This rcat may also tag a redirect individually:
#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]]
{{R to ASCII}}
- This is in accord with instructions found at Wikipedia:REDCAT.
- Use this rcat on any redirect from a title with differences that are non-ASCII symbols that are not diacritical marks (accents, umlauts, etc.) to a title in only basic ASCII characters.
