This is a documentation subpage for మూస:R from template shortcut. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original మూస page. |
This template should not be substituted nor used to tag soft redirects. |
Usage
[మార్చు]- This redirect category (rcat) template populates ‹The template Cat is being considered for merging.› Category:Redirects from template shortcuts and, when the shortcut is in the main-article namespace (mainspace), the Unprintworthy redirects category is also populated by default. At some point in the future, Jimmy Wales wants to make more printed versions of Wikipedia encyclopedia articles. Template-shortcut redirects from mainspace are not suitable for a printed version. In other words they are unprintworthy.
- Add this rcat to a redirect in the following manner:
#REDIRECT [[Template:(target page name)]] {{R from template shortcut}}
- This is in accord with instructions found at Wikipedia:REDCAT.
- Template {{This is a redirect}} may also be used to add this and up to seven appropriate rcats to a redirect.
- Use this rcat on any redirect that is a shortcut to a template, which usually has a longer pagename. The redirect itself does not necessarily have to be a template, e.g., [[T:S]], which is a template shortcut that is actually in mainspace. Such shortcuts are known as pseudo-namespace redirects.
- Note: Pseudo-namespace template shortcuts such as T:S above may be transcluded by use of a leading colon:
{{:T:S|This text has been "struck through".}}
, which results in:- T:S
- If the leading colon is not included, then the result is a red link:
- These are also useful as shortcuts to the template page itself:
[[T:S]]
, which results in:- T:S (Template:Strikethrough)
- It is important to note that it is the target that determines the difference between a template shortcut and any other shortcut. If the shortcut redirect is in any namespace and the target is a template, then the redirect is a "template shortcut". Shortcut redirects that target template pages should always be tagged with
{{R from template shortcut}}
and should never be tagged with{{R from shortcut}}
, which is meant only for shortcuts that do not target templates. - Also, template talk pages are in the talk namespace and are not in template space; if the shortcut redirect targets a talk page of any subject namespace, then use
{{R from shortcut}}
instead.
