Template:R from technical name

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

This page is a redirect:

From a technical name: This is a redirect from a more technical name to a common name.

When appropriate, protection levels are automatically sensed, described and categorized.

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

When used by itself:

From a technical name: This is a redirect from a more technical name to a common name.

This template should not be substituted nor used to tag soft redirects.

Usage[edit source]

This redirect category (rcat) template populates both Category:Redirects from technical names and Category:Printworthy redirects by default. In 2003, efforts were begun to support the Wikimedia Foundation's goal of increasing access and availability of Wikipedia articles in printed versions. Mainspace redirects from technical names are suitable for a printed version. In other words they are printworthy.
Add this rcat to a redirect page (not a talk-page redirect) in the following manner:

#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from technical name}}
{{R printworthy}}
}}

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 technical name}}

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

Use this rcat to tag all mainspace redirects from technical terms to non-technical names. If the redirect is a scientific name, such as Homo sapiens sapiens, then use {{R from scientific name}} instead. Examples of the use of this rcat are:
- Contusion Bruise
- Solidus (punctuation)Slash (punctuation)
- Vibrissa Whiskers
- Diacetylmorphine Heroin – using alias {{R from chemical name}}
