| This page is a redirect. The following categories are used to track and monitor this redirect:
- Mentioned in a hatnote: This is a redirect from a title that is mentioned in a hatnote at the redirect target. The mention is usually atop the target article. It may, however, be directly under a section header, or in another article's hatnote (whenever the hatnote is under a section, {{R to section}} should also be used).
- The titles of redirects mentioned in hatnotes may refer to a subject other than that of the target page. It is possible that this redirect may need to be retargeted, or become an article under its own title (see {{R with possibilities}}). If the title is a good candidate for a Wiktionary link, it may also be added.
- To an embedded anchor: This is a redirect from a topic that does not have its own page to an embedded anchor on the redirect's target page.
- An
{{anchor|anchor name}} or {{visible anchor}} template, an HTML element with id="anchor name", or an |id=anchor name parameter can be placed at the beginning of a paragraph, substituted into a section header, or inserted within a table. Anchors may also be old section headers that have since been renamed, in order to preserve existing internal and external links.
- Although section headers of the form
==(Header name)== act as anchors by default, with them use {{R to section}} instead.
- With possibilities: This is a redirect from a title that potentially could be expanded into a new article. The topic described by this title may be more detailed than is currently provided on the target page or in a section of that page.
- When the target page becomes too large, or for any reason a new page would be an improvement, this redirect may be replaced with an article, template or other project page that is carved out of the target page. See also {{R to section}} and use together with this rcat when appropriate.
- If the topic of the redirect is not susceptible to expansion, then use other rcats such as {{R to section}} or {{R to list entry}} when appropriate.
- Since a new page may be created, links to this redirect should not be replaced with a direct link to the target page. To make redirects to this page, use {{R avoided double redirect}}.
- {{R printworthy}} should be used together with this template when applied to a redirect in mainspace.
- When used on a template redirect, it will automatically populate Category:Template redirects with possibilities.
When appropriate, protection levels are automatically sensed, described and categorized. |
