ਫਰਮਾ:R from template shortcut

When used with the "This is a redirect" (Redr) template:

Template {{This is a redirect}} may be used to add from one to seven rcat templates, along with their parameters and categories, to a redirect. For more information see the documentation page below.

When used by itself:

• This is a redirect from a shortcut page name in any namespace to a page in template namespace. For more information follow the bold category link.
  • If target page is not a template, then use {{R from shortcut}} instead. Template shortcuts are wikilinked on community pages, talk pages and edit summaries, but not in mainspace articles.
  • Note: Template talk pages are in a talk namespace; they are not in the template namespace. All shortcuts to talk pages should be tagged with {{R from shortcut}}.

Usage

Use this rcat template in any namespace.

• This redirect category (rcat) template populates Category:Redirects from template shortcuts and, when the shortcut is in the main-article namespace (mainspace), the Unprintworthy redirects category is also populated by default. At some point in the future, Jimmy Wales wants to make more printed versions of Wikipedia encyclopedia articles. Template-shortcut redirects from mainspace are not suitable for a printed version. In other words, they are unprintworthy.
• Add this rcat to a redirect in the following manner:

#REDIRECT [[Template:(target page name)]]

{{Redr|from template shortcut}}

Template {{Redr}} is an alias for the This is a redirect template, which may be used to add up to seven appropriate rcats, along with their parameters, 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 [[Template:(target page name)]]

{{R from template shortcut}}

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

• Use this rcat to tag any redirect that is a shortcut to a template, which usually has a longer pagename. The redirect itself does not necessarily have to be a template, e.g., [[T:S, which is a template shortcut that is actually in mainspace. Such shortcuts are known as pseudo-namespace redirects.
  • Note: Pseudo-namespace template shortcuts such as T:S above may be transcluded by use of a leading colon:

{{:T:S|This text has been "struck through".}}, which results in:

T:S

If the leading colon is not included, then the result is a red link:

ਫਰਮਾ:T:S

These are also useful as shortcuts to the template page itself:

[[T:S]], which results in:

T:S (Template:Strikethrough)

• It is important to note that it is the target that determines the difference between a template shortcut and any other shortcut. If the shortcut redirect is in any namespace and the target is a template, then the redirect is a "template shortcut". Shortcut redirects that target template pages should always be tagged with {{R from template shortcut}} and should never be tagged with {{R from shortcut}}, which is meant only for shortcuts that do not target templates.
• Also, template talk pages are in the talk namespace and are not in template space; if the shortcut redirect targets a talk page of any subject namespace, then use {{R from shortcut}} instead.
