Template:R to talk page/doc
 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:R to talk page. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
 | This template should not be substituted nor used to tag soft redirects. |
Purpose
This redirect category (rcat) template sorts redirects into the following categories:
- Category:Redirects to talk pages – for pseudo-namespace and cross-namespace redirects, and
- Category:Unprintworthy redirects – only redirects from the main-article namespace (mainspace)
This rcat is should not be used to tag redirects that are in any talk namespace. If placed on a talk-page redirect, it will not populate the expected category(ies); the redirect will instead be sorted to Category:Pages with templates in the wrong namespace.
Usage
- Apply this rcat to a redirect page (not a talk-page redirect) in the following manner:
#REDIRECT [[(full target talk page name)]]
{{Rcat shell|
{{R to talk page}}
}}- and when the redirect is in article mainspace, printworthiness should also be tagged:
#REDIRECT [[(full target talk page name)]]
{{Rcat shell|
{{R to talk page}}
{{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 [[(full target talk page name)]]
{{R to talk page}}- This is in accord with instructions found at BattleIntelligence:REDCAT.
- Use this rcat to tag any redirect from a page outside of the talk namespaces to any page in any of the talk namespaces. This rcat should never be used on any redirect that is itself in any talk namespace.
