From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
When used with the "Redirect category shell" (Rcat 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.
- 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}}or{{visible anchor}}template, an HTML element withid="anchor name", or an|id=anchor nameparameter can be placed at the beginning of a paragraph, substituted into a section header, or inserted within a table. Anchors may also be old section headers that have since been renamed, in order to preserve existing internal and external links. - Although section headers of the form
==(Header name)==act as anchors by default, with them use {{R to section }} instead.

About
A redirect may target an anchor that covers a particular term that has insufficient independent scope and notability to warrant its own section, much less an entire article, and the term is nonetheless important within the field and is useful to link from other articles in the field of expertise. Such redirects allow a reader to search and find useful information about the term and similar related material in the defining article.
Usage
Use this rcat template in any namespace .
- This redirect category (rcat) template populates Category:Redirects to embedded anchors. Add this rcat to a redirect in the following manner:
#REDIRECT[[(target page name)#(target anchor name)]] {{Redirect category shell| {{R to anchor}} }}
- If the redirect is in mainspace, then printworthiness should also be tagged:
#REDIRECT[[(target page name)#(target anchor name)]] {{Redirect category shell| {{R to anchor}} {{R unprintworthy}} }}
- This rcat may also tag a redirect individually:
#REDIRECT[[(target page name)#(target anchor name)]] {{R to anchor}}
- This is in accord with instructions found at Wikipedia:REDCAT.
- This rcat is used whenever a redirect targets:
- an embedded {{anchor }} or {{vanchor }} on a page
- a
<span id=(anchor)> ... </span>html element, e.g. old section headers - the
id=attribute within tables
- Please use the following rcats when more appropriate:
{{R to list entry}}{{R to section}}to categorize redirects to existing section headers
Printworthiness
Please do not alter the printworthy settings of any rcat without first notifying the Version 1.0 Editorial Team , who are responsible for any and all materials, including redirects, that go into a offline version of Wikipedia.
- In mainspace, many redirects to embedded anchors are considered printworthy, perhaps even with the possibility to become a separate article, project page, etc.; however, there are many other such redirects that are unprintworthy, so there is no default sort for printworthiness.
- In 2003, efforts were begun to support the Wikimedia Foundation's goal of increasing access and availability of Wikipedia articles in printed versions. Some rcats automatically populate either Category:Printworthy redirects or Category:Unprintworthy redirects by default. Others, like this rcat, do not, and that means it is up to editors to choose which of those categories, Printworthy or Unprintworthy, is appropriate and should be populated. The rcats that are used separately to populate those categories are:
{{R printworthy}}and{{R unprintworthy}}
- Please click on each one for more details and guidance.
- Template {{Redirect category shell }} will accept these and any other rcats:
{{Redirect category shell| {{R to anchor}} {{R printworthy}} }} {{Redirect category shell| {{R to anchor}} {{R unprintworthy}} }}
