Usage

Use this rcat template on mainspace redirects only.

• This redirect category (rcat) template populates Category:Redirects from adjectives. Add this rcat to a redirect page, not a talk page, in the following manner:

#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from adjective}}
}}

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 [[(target article title)]]

{{R from adjective}}

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

• Use this rcat only on mainspace redirects from adjectives to a related word, such as the same root word in the form of a different part of speech.
• If an adjective redirect is not in mainspace, then please do not tag it with this rcat.

Printworthiness

• In main-article namespace, many adjective redirects to related words are considered unprintworthy; however, there may be others that are thought to be printworthy, so there is no default sort for printworthiness.
• In 2003, efforts were begun to support the Wikimedia Foundation's goal of increasing access and availability of Wikipedia articles in printed versions. Some rcats automatically populate either Category:Printworthy redirects or Category:Unprintworthy redirects by default. Others, like this rcat, do not, and that means it is up to editors to choose which of those categories, Printworthy or Unprintworthy, is appropriate and should be populated. The rcats that are used separately to populate those categories are:

• {{R printworthy}} and
• {{R unprintworthy}}

Please click on each one for more details and guidance.

• Template {{Redirect category shell}} will accept these and any other rcats:

{{Redirect category shell|
{{R from adjective}}
{{R printworthy}}
}}

{{Redirect category shell|
{{R from adjective}}
{{R unprintworthy}}
}}
