__NOTOC__
=== Purpose ===
This template marks a redirect as one that should not be used as a link, and this template provides the correct name. Any link to a redirect page transcluding this template should be changed to the correct name without [[BTW:piped link|piping]] that would hide the correct title.

This template automatically sorts the redirect into the following categories:
* {{Cat|Redirects from incorrect names}} – should never be used in articles – only the '''''correct name''''' should be used
* {{Cat|Unprintworthy redirects}} – when a [[BTW:MAINSPACE|mainspace]] redirect is tagged

With a correct name specified for all uses of this template, repair of links to the redirect page becomes simple: the link to the redirect page should be changed to link to the correct name. Given the correct name is specified for each case below, it should always be easy to fix links to these redirects.

=== Usage ===
{{hatnote|Use this rcat template in '''any [[BTW:namespace|namespace]]'''.}}
* Use this redirect category ([[BTW:RCAT|rcat]]) template for any redirect from an incorrect article name to the correct name. Add this template to the redirect in the following manner:
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from incorrect name}}
{{R unprintworthy}}
}}
</syntaxhighlight>
: Template {{tl|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:
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]]

{{R from incorrect name}}
</syntaxhighlight>
* This template is '''not''' for simple punctuation differences – use {{tl|R from modification}} ''instead''.
* There is one unnamed parameter that may be used to specify the ''correct name'' when the target is different from the correct name or title:
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
{{Rcat shell|
{{R from incorrect name|(correct name)}}
}}
</syntaxhighlight>
:''or'':
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
{{R from incorrect name|(correct name)}}
</syntaxhighlight>
'''Example:'''
:''UK Cycling''[[File:Redirect arrow without text.svg|35px]]''British Cycling'' (the target, "British Cycling", is the name of an organisation)
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
#REDIRECT [[British Cycling]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from incorrect name}}
{{R unprintworthy}}
}}
</syntaxhighlight>
:''or'':
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
#REDIRECT [[British Cycling]]

{{R from incorrect name}}
</syntaxhighlight>
:It is acceptable (however unnecessary and redundant) to specify the redirect target as the ''correct name'':
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
#REDIRECT [[British Cycling]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from incorrect name|British Cycling}}
{{R unprintworthy}}
}}
</syntaxhighlight>
:''or'':
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
#REDIRECT [[British Cycling]]

{{R from incorrect name|British Cycling}}
</syntaxhighlight>
: Both of the above will change the wording from "The correct name is given by the target of the redirect," to "The correct name is '''{{Large|British Cycling}}'''."

'''Redirect target only mentions subject:'''

: If the target article just mentions the correct name and is not actually titled with it, then this rcat is used as follows:
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
{{Rcat shell|
{{R from incorrect name|(correct name)}}
{{R unprintworthy}}
}}
</syntaxhighlight>
:''or'':
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
{{R from incorrect name|(correct name)}}
</syntaxhighlight>
:''The correct name should also be a redirect that targets the same article or other page name.'' That is, if this redirect is an incorrect name, and the target article is not the ''correct name'', there should be a matching redirect page that is titled with the ''correct name''.

'''Example:'''
:''Virginia Western Coal and Iron Railroad''[[File:Redirect arrow without text.svg|35px]]''Virginia–Carolina Railway''; the correct name is '''Virginia Western Coal and Iron Railway''', which also redirects to the '''''Virginia–Carolina Railway''''' article:
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
#REDIRECT [[Virginia–Carolina Railway]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from incorrect name|Virginia Western Coal and Iron Railway}}
{{R unprintworthy}}
}}
</syntaxhighlight>
: This will change the wording to "The correct name is '''{{large|Virginia Western Coal and Iron Railway}}'''."

'''Redirect targets a #section or #anchor:'''

: When the redirect is to a section or anchor within an article, then the correct usage is:
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
#REDIRECT [[(target page)#(section or anchor title)]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from incorrect name|(correct name)}}
{{R to section}} (or {{R to anchor}} if not a section title)
{{R unprintworthy}}
}}
</syntaxhighlight>
: The ''correct name'' is expected to be either the anchor/section title, or a redirect page that also redirects to that same anchor/section of the target page. That is, if the redirect is an incorrect name, and the target page title, anchor title, or section header is not the correct name (the correct name is down in the page content), then there should be a matching redirect titled with the ''correct name''.
