Bharatpedia:Template messages/Redirect pages

"Bharatpedia:Redirect templates" redirects here. It is not to be confused with Template:Redirect.

Further information: Template:R template index, Bharatpedia:Categorizing redirects, and Category:Redirect templates

For how to use redirect templates, see Bharatpedia:WikiProject Redirect/Style guide.

This is a list of maintenance templates which are used to categorize [:Categorization|categories]] where appropriate, see Bharatpedia:Categorizing redirects. For pages which should ultimately be handled by a full article, add both {{R with possibilities}} and one or more stub sorting templates to draw attention to the needed article.

Redirect templates are designed to be used together. For example, the redirect "Architechts" uses both {{R from misspelling}} and {{R from plural}}. {{Redirect category shell}} can be used to group multiple templates on a single page by listing the appropriate redirect templates as its parameter (similar to {{WikiProject banner shell}} and {{Multiple issues}}).

Hidden categories

Most of the categories populated by redirect category (rcat) templates are hidden categories. Hidden categories cannot be seen by viewers who are not logged in, nor by editors who have not set their preferences to view them. So if you have tagged a redirect with an rcat and saved the redirect, but you cannot see the category, the first thing to check is if you have set your preferences to view hidden cats:

1. Go to Preferences → Appearance
2. Scroll down to Advanced options
3. Check the box Show hidden categories
4. Click Save

You may need to purge your browser cache to ensure that you can see hidden cats in the future.

Printworthy vs. unprintworthy

See also: Bharatpedia:Printability and Bharatpedia:Pushing to 1.0

Some rcats place a redirect in either Category:Printworthy redirects or Category:Unprintworthy redirects by default. Other rcats do not, which means that it is up to editors to choose to the best of their knowledge which of those categories, Printworthy or Unprintworthy, is appropriate and should be populated. The rcats that can be used separately to populate those categories are:

• {{R printworthy}} and {{R unprintworthy}}

For more information follow the links.

List of redirects by function

Not all rcats are listed in this functional index; for a complete list of rcats, see the alphanumeric listing.

Each and every rcat template in the following functional index is also found in the above navbar, which is used as a reference on all rcat pages. Changes made to the navbar must also be made below, and vice versa.

Alphanumeric listing

This index lists all rcats; to see many rcats listed by function, see the functional index and the navbar.

• Look for the first "significant" word, because this listing is sorted in a way that skips common prefixes like "R from". For example, R from move is in the "M" group. To make them easier to find, some rcats are listed more than once. For example, R from postal abbreviation will be found in the "P" group as well as in the "A" group.
• Printability (in mainspace only) keys for third column of table:

1. Printable – rcat will populate {{R printworthy}} by default
   • Hard = cannot be altered
   • Soft = can be altered to unprintworthy by a parameter
2. Unprintable – rcat will populate {{R unprintworthy}} by default
   • Hard = cannot be altered
   • Soft = can be altered to printworthy by a parameter
3. No default – editors manually choose printability of redirects
4. N/A – non-applicable – rcat is not used in mainspace or it is deprecated

"A"
{{R avoided double redirect}} category links talk edit	Note: This rcat may also populate Category:Avoided double redirects to be updated when appropriate. Avoided double redirect: This is a redirect from an alternative title for (redirect page name), another redirect to the same title. Because double redirects are disallowed, both pages currently point to (target article). In case (redirect page name) is expanded into a separate article, this redirect should be changed to point to that article instead.	No default
{{R from abbreviation}} category links talk edit	From an abbreviation: This is a redirect from an abbreviation to a related topic, such as the expansion of the abbreviation. Instead of this template, use {{R from acronym}} for acronyms pronounced as words, such as NATO and RADAR; or Use {{R from initialism}} for those pronounced as letters, such as CIA and HIV; or Use {{R from short name}}, instead, for the initials of a person's name, and other shortenings not typically classed as abbreviations.

{{R from acronym}} category links talk edit	From an acronym: This is a redirect from an acronym to a related topic, such as the expansion of the acronym. Remember that an acronym is a special type of initialism that can be spoken as a word, such as "NATO" or "radar" or "ANOVA". Use {{R from initialism}} for abbreviations that have letters that are pronounced separately, such as "OAU" or "USSR" or "DoD".	No default

Pages that link to this redirect may be updated to link directly to the target page if that results in an improvement of the text. Do not "fix" such links if they are not broken. Also, these links should not be replaced with piped links. Please note that there are many more specific templates. See subcategories of Category:Redirects from modifications for other options (capitals, abbreviations, diacritics, plurals, stylizations, transliteration, ligatures, different parts of speech, etc.) At present, {{R from alternative hyphenation}}, {{R from alternative punctuation}}, and {{R from alternative spacing}} all redirect to this template and feed into the same maintenance category.

From an alternative name: This is a redirect from a title that is another name or identity such as an alter ego, a pseudonym, a nickname, or a synonym of the target, or of a name associated with the target. This redirect leads to the title in accordance with the naming conventions for common names to aid searches and writing. It is not necessary to replace these redirected links with a piped link. If this redirect is an incorrect name for the target, then {{R from incorrect name}} should be used instead.	No default

{{R to anchor}} category links talk edit	To an embedded anchor: This is a redirect from a topic that does not have its own page to an embedded anchor on the redirect's target page. An {{anchor|(anchor name)}} template, a <span id="(anchor name)"> html element, or an |id=(anchor name) parameter might be installed at the beginning of a paragraph, in or near a section header or within a table. The anchor might also be an old section header that has been edited and is anchored within or near the new header to prevent broken internal and external links. Even though section headers of the general form ==(Header name)== are themselves a type of anchor, use {{R to section}} instead.	Unprintable – soft

{{R from CamelCase}} category links talk edit	From a camel case title: This is a redirect from a camel case page name. In the initial versions of Bharatpedia, all links had to be "CamelCase", i.e., words that used medial capitals; they are "two-humped" like a Bactrian camel. These are kept as redirects to maintain edit history and to avoid breaking links that may have been made externally.	Unprintable – hard
{{R from Canadian settlement name}} category links talk edit	Template:R from Canadian settlement name	No default
{{R from miscapitalisation}} category links talk edit	From a miscapitalisation: This is a redirect from a capitalisation error. The correct form is given by the target of the redirect. This redirect is made available to aid searches or to maintain links. Pages that use this link should be updated to link directly to the correct form without using a piped link hiding the correct details. This template tags redirects with the Redirects from miscapitalisations category, a subcategory of Redirects from incorrect names, so template {{R from incorrect name}} should not be used with this template.	Unprintable – soft
{{R from other capitalisation}} category links talk edit	From other capitalisation: This is a redirect from a title with another method of capitalisation. It leads to the title in accordance with the Bharatpedia naming conventions for capitalisation, or it leads to a title that is associated in some way with the conventional capitalisation of this redirect title. This may help writing, searching and international language issues. If this redirect is an incorrect capitalisation, then {{R from miscapitalisation}} should be used instead, and pages that use this link should be updated to link directly to the target. Miscapitalisations can be tagged in any namespace. Use this rcat to tag only mainspace redirects; when other capitalisations are in other namespaces, use {{R from modification}} instead.

{{R to category namespace}} category links talk edit	From outside category namespace: This is a redirect from a page outside the category namespace to a category page. This redirect page must be outside the category namespace. Redirects in category namespace are soft redirects, and most rcats must never be used to tag soft redirects. Note: If this page is in category namespace, then it will populate Category:Pages with templates in the wrong namespace instead.	Unprintable – hard
{{R category with possibilities}} category links talk edit	From a category with possibilities: This is a redirect from a category title that potentially could be populated as a separate category. For Example: Mount Yao Mountains of Guangxi. Other pages should not populate this redirected category. If you find category links to this redirect from articles, templates, categories, or portals, please retarget those links to the category page to which this entry redirects. If used to tag redirects in any namespace other than category space, then Category:Pages with templates in the wrong namespace will be populated, so be sure to use this rcat only on category pages.

{{R for convenience}} category links talk edit	Used for convenience: This is a redirect from a title that is intended to make it easier to get to the target page; the target is a more appropriate page for the purpose of the redirected title. This rcat is reserved for redirects that target talk pages to centralize discussion and redirects that may not fit other descriptions. For example, this may be a redirect from a title that is used colloquially; however, it is not currently an officially accepted term, though it may have been in the past. It leads to the title in accordance with the naming conventions for common names and can help writing and searches. This redirect does not need to be replaced with a piped link.	No default
{{R country data}} category links talk edit	To a country data template: This is a redirect from an alias for that country data template. See Template:Country showdata § Redirect aliases for more information.	No default

{{R to diacritic}} category links talk edit	For actual transliterations use {{R from transliteration}}. To the same page name with diacritics: This is a redirect from a page name that does not have diacritical marks (accents, umlauts, etc.) to essentially the same page name with diacritical marks or a "List of..." page anchored to a promising list item name with diacritics. The correct form is given by the target of the redirect. This redirect aids in searches and may be applied (without piping) when the subject page concerns language translation or foreign language equivalents. Other pages that use this redirect should be updated with a direct link to the redirect target (again, without piping). This rcat template must not be used to tag redirects to a title with differences that are 1: ligatures (like æ and Œ – use {{R to ligature}} instead), or 2: other non-ASCII characters that do not include diacritics (like Greek letters – use {{R from ASCII-only}} instead). This rcat template can also be used on redirects to sections and anchors to indicate the diacritics-free version of a term/name written both ways.	Unprintable – hard
{{R ME without diacritics}} category links talk edit	Template:R ME without diacritics	Unprintable – hard
{{R to disambiguation page}} category links talk edit	To a disambiguation page: This is a redirect to a disambiguation page. This redirect is intended for use in links from other articles that need to refer to the disambiguation page, rather than be disambiguated. Therefore, this template should only appear on a redirect page that has "(disambiguation)" at the end of its title. Ambiguous titles that do not have page names ending with "(disambiguation)" may use {{R from ambiguous term}} instead. For disambiguations that later prove to still be ambiguous (e.g. "(painter)" when there are multiple notable painters by the same name) and which redirect to disambiguation pages, then {{R from incomplete disambiguation}} is the appropriate template. Any talk page redirect that has "(disambiguation)" in its title targets another talk page, not a disambiguation page, and should be tagged with {{R from unnecessary disambiguation}} instead of this template.	Unprintable – hard
{{R from incomplete disambiguation}} category links talk edit	From incomplete disambiguation: This is a redirect from an incomplete disambiguation, a page name that is too ambiguous to be the title of an article or other project page. Such titles should redirect to an appropriate disambiguation page (or section of it), or to a more complete disambiguation.	Unprintable – soft
{{R from incorrect disambiguation}} category links talk edit	From incorrect disambiguation: This is a redirect from a page name with incorrect disambiguation due to a typographical error, a format that does not follow Wikipedia convention or a previous editorial misconception.	Unprintable – hard

Examples are: Jupiter (planet)Jupiter (unnecessary parenthetical qualifier) Paris, FranceParis (unnecessary comma-separated qualifier) Japanese Bobtail catJapanese Bobtail (unnecessary natural qualifier) Category:Redirects to disambiguation pages is a subcategory of this rcat's category. So this rcat should not be used on mainspace disambiguation redirects with "(disambiguation)" in the page title. Use {{R to disambiguation page}} instead.	Unprintable – hard

{{R avoided double redirect}} category links talk edit	Note: This rcat may also populate Category:Avoided double redirects to be updated when appropriate. Avoided double redirect: This is a redirect from an alternative title for (redirect page name), another redirect to the same title. Because double redirects are disallowed, both pages currently point to (target article). In case (redirect page name) is expanded into a separate article, this redirect should be changed to point to that article instead.	No default

This template is used on a very large number of pages. To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage.

{{R with history}} category links talk edit	With history: This is a redirect from a page containing substantive page history. This page is kept as a redirect to preserve its former content and attributions. Please do not remove the tag that generates this text (unless the need to recreate content on this page has been demonstrated), nor delete this page. This template should not be used for redirects having some edit history but no meaningful content in their previous versions, nor for redirects created as a result of a page merge (use {{R from merge}} instead), nor for redirects from a title that forms a historic part of Bharatpedia (use {{R with old history}} instead).

This redirect is made available to aid searches. Pages that use this link should be updated to link directly to the target without the use of a piped link that hides the correct details. This template tags redirects with a subcategory of the Redirects from incorrect names category, so template {{R from incorrect name}} should not be used with this template.	Unprintable – ???

This redirect is made available to aid searches or to maintain links. Pages that use this link should be updated to link directly to the correct form without using a piped link hiding the correct details.

{{R from modification}} category links talk edit	Do not use this template in addition to {{R from transliteration}}, which is a subcategory. From a modification: This is a redirect from a modification of the target's title or a closely related title. For example, the words may be rearranged. Please note that there are many more specific templates. Please use {{R from alternative spelling}} for spelling changes (including punctuation and spacing); see subcategories of Category:Redirects from modifications for other options (capitals, abbreviations, diacritics, plurals, stylizations, transliteration, ligatures, different parts of speech, etc.). If you are unsure which to use, this template is fine; someone will make it more specific later if necessary. In cases of modification from distinctly longer or shorter names, please use {{R from long name}} or {{R from short name}}, respectively. Abbreviations (including acronyms) should also receive {{R from abbreviation}}. Use this rcat instead of {{R from other capitalisation}} and {{R from plural}} in namespaces other than mainspace for those types of modification. This may also apply to several other subcategories of modification; please check those templates' output before saving if using outside of mainspace.	No default

It leads to the title in accordance with the Bharatpedia naming conventions for capitalisation, or it leads to a title that is associated in some way with the conventional capitalisation of this redirect title. This may help writing, searching and international language issues. If this redirect is an incorrect capitalisation, then {{R from miscapitalisation}} should be used instead, and pages that use this link should be updated to link directly to the target. Miscapitalisations can be tagged in any namespace. Use this rcat to tag only mainspace redirects; when other capitalisations are in other namespaces, use {{R from modification}} instead.

This redirect link is used for convenience; it is often preferable to add the plural directly after the link (for example, [[link]]s). However, do not replace these redirected links with a simpler link unless the page is updated for another reason (see BP:NOTBROKEN). Use this rcat to tag only mainspace redirects; when plural forms are found in other namespaces, use {{R from modification}} instead.	Unprintable – soft

The topic described by this title may be more detailed than is currently provided on the target page or in a section of that page. {{R printworthy}} should be used together with this template when applied to a redirect in mainspace. When used on a template redirect, it will automatically populate Category:Template redirects with possibilities. When the target page becomes too large, or for any reason a new page would be an improvement, this redirect may be replaced with an article, template or other project page that is carved out of the target page. See also {{R to section}} and use together with this rcat when appropriate. If the topic of the redirect is not susceptible to expansion, then use other rcats such as {{R to section}} or {{R to list entry}} when appropriate. Since a new page may be created, links to this redirect should not be replaced with a direct link to the target page.	Printable – hard
{{R category with possibilities}} category links talk edit	From a category with possibilities: This is a redirect from a category title that potentially could be populated as a separate category. For Example: Mount Yao Mountains of Guangxi. Other pages should not populate this redirected category. If you find category links to this redirect from articles, templates, categories, or portals, please retarget those links to the category page to which this entry redirects. If used to tag redirects in any namespace other than category space, then Category:Pages with templates in the wrong namespace will be populated, so be sure to use this rcat only on category pages.

{{R fully protected}} category links talk edit	Fully protected: This is a redirect from a title that is fully protected from editing for any of several possible reasons. It may have been protected by an administrator, or it may be on the Cascade-protected list, or both. Please do not replace these redirected links with links directly to the target page unless expressly advised to do so below or elsewhere on this page, or if the change is supported by a policy or guideline.

{{R to related topic}} category links talk edit	To a related topic: This is a redirect to an article about a similar topic. Redirects from related topics are different than redirects from related words, because a related topic is more likely to warrant a full and detailed description in the target article. If this redirect's subject is notable, then also tag it with {{R with possibilities}} and {{R printworthy}}.	No default
{{R from related word}} category links talk edit	From a related word or phrase: This is a redirect from a word (or phrase) to a page title that is related in some way. This redirect might be a good search term, or it could be a candidate for a Wiktionary link. Redirects from related words are not properly redirects from alternative spellings of the same word. They are also different from redirects that are subtopics or related terms/topics, because unlike those, a related word or phrase probably does not warrant its own subtopic section in the target page or possess the possibility of ever becoming an article, template, project page, and so forth.

Not all articles or other pages with "/" in their titles are subpages (e.g. CP/M).

Header for redirect categories
{{Redirect category}} links talk edit	The pages in this category are redirects. To add a redirect to this category, place {{Redirect category shell|(redirect template link)}} on the second new line (skip a line) after #REDIRECT [[Target page name]]. For more information follow the links. Never substitute redirect template(s), nor place them on soft redirects. See also the complete list of redirect templates and the redirect style guide. This is a maintenance category, used for maintenance of the Bharatpedia project. It is not part of the encyclopedia and contains non-article pages, or groups articles by status rather than subject. Do not include this category in content categories. This is a tracking category. It builds and maintains a list of pages primarily for the sake of the list itself. They are not part of the encyclopedia's categorization scheme. This category is hidden on its member pages—unless the corresponding user preference (appearance → show hidden categories) is set. These categories are used to track, build and organize lists of pages needing "attention en masse" (for example, pages using deprecated syntax), or that may need to be edited at someone's earliest convenience. These categories also serve to aggregate members of several lists or sub-categories into a larger, more efficient list (discriminated by classifications).

Notes

• {{Redirect category shell}} may be used to add one or more appropriate redirect category (rcat) templates to redirects. Click the template link and read its documentation page for more information. Also, see its comparison page, which illustrates its differences with individual rcat tagging.
• For talk pages, there are only certain rcats that should be used. The only rcats that apply to pages in the talk namespaces are {{R from alternative name}}, {{R from shortcut}}, and those associated with moves, merges, disambiguations and cross-namespace redirects. For more information, read the templates' documentation pages. See also {{Talk page of redirect}}.
• If a redirect is tagged incorrectly, for example, if an editor places a mainspace-only rcat on a redirect in another namespace, the redirect will not be sorted into the expected category. Instead, the redirect may be sorted into Category:Pages with incorrectly transcluded templates or its subcategory Pages with templates in the wrong namespace, categories that should remain empty.
• When rcats are used to categorize image-file redirects, the category(ies) may not appear on the redirect page after saving even if they appeared on preview, and even if preferences are set to view hidden categories. Yet the image-file redirect will still populate the category(ies). For example, in Category:Redirects from moves under the section heading Media in category "Redirects from moves", many image-file redirects have been correctly categorized, and yet for example {{Rcat shell|{{R from move}}{{R from short name}}}}'s categories may not appear on the image-file redirect's page. Hidden categories on image-file redirects can be detected by clicking on "Page information" in the Tools menu on the sidebar.
