Template:R to template namespace

When used inside the {{Redirect category shell }} template:

This page is a redirect. The following categories are used to track and monitor this redirect:

From outside the template namespace : This is a redirect from a page outside the template namespace to a template page. This redirect page must be outside the template namespace.
- Note: If this page is in template namespace, then it will populate Category:Pages with templates in the wrong namespace instead of the correct, expected category.

When appropriate, protection levels are automatically sensed, described and categorized.

When used by itself:

From outside the template namespace : This is a redirect from a page outside the template namespace to a template page. This redirect page must be outside the template namespace.
- Note: If this page is in template namespace, then it will populate Category:Pages with templates in the wrong namespace instead of the correct, expected category.

{{R to template Template:R to template }}

Purpose

This redirect category (rcat) template sorts redirects into the following categories:

Category:Redirects to template namespace – for PNRs and CNRs, and
Category:Unprintworthy redirects – only redirects from the main-article namespace (mainspace)

In 2003, efforts were begun to support the Wikimedia Foundation's goal of increasing access and availability of Wikipedia articles in printed versions . Mainspace redirects that target pages in the template namespace are not suitable for a printed version. In other words they are unprintworthy.

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.

This rcat should not be used to tag redirects that are inside the template namespace. If placed on a redirect that is a template page, this rcat will not populate the expected category(ies). The redirect will instead be sorted to Category:Pages with templates in the wrong namespace.

Usage

Use this rcat template in any namespace except template namespace .

Apply this rcat to a redirect in the following manner:

#REDIRECT[[Template:(target page name)]]
{{Rcat shell|
{{R to template namespace}}
}}

and when the redirect is in article mainspace, printworthiness should also be tagged:

#REDIRECT[[Template:(target page name)]]
{{Rcat shell|
{{R to template namespace}}
{{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[[Template:(target page name)]]
{{R to template namespace}}

This is in accord with instructions found at Wikipedia:REDCAT.

Use this rcat to tag any redirect from a page outside of the template namespace that targets a page inside the template namespace.

This rcat should never be used on a redirect page that is in the template namespace.
