When used with the "Redirect category shell" (Rcat shell) template:
- 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 comics title with possibilities: This is a redirect from a comics-related title that potentially could be expanded into an article.
- For guidance on how to start a new page from a section, please see Wikipedia:Summary style. It is important that the topic is notable in accordance with the guideline (here is a helpful essay), and that the article is structured in line with the manual of style; otherwise, there is a possibility that the article will be re-merged and turned back into a redirect.
Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]Usage
This redirect category (rcat) template populates Category:Comics redirects with possibilities 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. Comics-related redirects that may become articles someday are suitable for a printed version of this encyclopedia. In other words they are printworthy.
- Place this rcat on a redirect page (not a talk-page redirect) in the following manner:
#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]
{{Rcat shell|
{{R comics with possibilities}}
{{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 comics with possibilities}}
- This is in accord with instructions found at Wikipedia:REDCAT.
- Use this rcat to tag any comics-related redirect that, in your opinion, may stand alone as an article about a notable subject. If you see a redirect with this template, and you are moved to write the article, then be BOLD!
