Template:R to template namespace

When used with the "Redirect category shell" (Rcat shell) template:

Template {{Redirect category shell}} may be used to add one or more redirect cat templates, along with their parameters and categories, to a redirect. For more information see the documentation page below.

When used by itself:

• From outside 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.

Purpose

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

1. {{Cat|Redirects to template namespace}
2. Category:Unprintworthy redirects

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}}

• 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.
