ଛାଞ୍ଚ:Redirect category/doc

Not to be confused with Template:Category redirect.

Usage

This template provides a header for the subcategories of Category:All redirect categories.

• {{Redirect category|from=|to=|template=|parameters=|same_line=}}

Use from and/or to to describe the purpose of the redirects in the category. template names the associated redirect template (without the Template: prefix). parameters lists the parameters used by the redirect template. same_line=no changes "put" to "use" and suppresses the text "after the redirect but on the same line". This option is only used for Category:Miscellaneous redirects and soft redirect categories.

Example

{{Redirect category|from=misspellings or [[typographical error]]s|to=the correct spellings|template=R from misspelling}}

produces:

The pages in this category are redirects from misspellings or typographical errors to the correct spellings.

To add a redirect to this category, put {{R from misspelling}} after the redirect but on the same line. Do not substitute redirect templates.

This is a maintenance category. It is used for maintenance of the Wikipedia project and is not part of the encyclopedia. It contains pages that are not articles, or it groups articles by status rather than subject. Do not include this category in content categories.
This is a hidden category. It is not shown on its member pages, unless the corresponding user preference 'Show hidden categories' is set.
This is a tracking category. It builds and maintains a list of pages primarily for the sake of the list itself. Pages are added to tracking categories through templates.

Categorisation

This template adds categories to Category:All redirect categories, Category:Hidden categories and Category:Tracking categories. If the template is transcluded on a page outside of the category namespace, the page will not be added to the categories.
