Template:R from predictable disambiguation
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
When used inside the {{Redirect category shell }} template:
This page is a redirect. The following categories are used to track and monitor this redirect:
When appropriate, protection levels are automatically sensed, described and categorized.
- From a predictable disambiguation : This is a redirect from a page name with parenthetical disambiguation that will appear in search predictions for an ambiguous term that readers are likely to search, to a page name using natural disambiguation that otherwise would not appear in predictions for the probable search term.
- When the redirect and its target have the same base page name and only the disambiguation qualifier is different, use {{R from other disambiguation }} instead.
When used by itself:
- From a predictable disambiguation : This is a redirect from a page name with parenthetical disambiguation that will appear in search predictions for an ambiguous term that readers are likely to search, to a page name using natural disambiguation that otherwise would not appear in predictions for the probable search term.
- When the redirect and its target have the same base page name and only the disambiguation qualifier is different, use {{R from other disambiguation }} instead.
This template should not be substituted nor used to tag soft redirects.
Usage
- This redirect category (rcat) template populates both Category:Redirects from predictable disambiguation and Category:Unprintworthy redirects by default. In 2003, efforts were begun to support the Wikimedia Foundation's goal of increasing access and availability of Wikipedia articles in printed versions . Redirects from predictable disambiguation are usually not suitable for a printed version. In other words they are unprintworthy. See below for what to do for those few personal-name redirects that are printworthy.
Please do not alter the printworthy settings of this rcat without first notifying the Version 1.0 Editorial Team , who are responsible for any and all materials, including redirects, that go into a printed version of Wikipedia.
- Add this rcat to a redirect (not a talk-page redirect) in the following manner:
#REDIRECT[[(target article title)]] {{Rcat shell| {{R from predictable disambiguation}} {{R unprintworthy}} }}
- Template {{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:
#REDIRECT[[(target article title)]] {{R from predictable disambiguation}} {{R unprintworthy}}
- This is in accord with instructions found at WP:REDCAT.
- Use this rcat to tag any redirect with parenthetical disambiguation that redirects to an article that uses natural disambiguation when its intent is to cause the subject to be discover-able in search predictions when using Wikipedia's search feature. If the redirect title uses the same base page name and only the parenthetical qualifier is changed, use {{R from other disambiguation }} instead.
- By default, this template categorizes a redirect as unprintworthy. To subdue this default sort and categorize a personal name as printworthy, use the unnamed parameter in the following manner:
{{Rcat shell| {{R from predictable disambiguation|1=printworthy}} {{R printworthy}} }}
- or the
1=may be omitted:
{{Rcat shell| {{R from predictable disambiguation|printworthy}} {{R printworthy}} }}
- and if used individually:
{{R from predictable disambiguation|printworthy}} {{R printworthy}}
- That will subdue the default Unprintworthy redirects category and populate Category:Printworthy redirects.
