Template:R from fictional location/doc

Purpose
This redirect category (rcat) template is used to categorize redirects from a fictional location to a related article to a list of locations, a type of article that is a collection of brief descriptions and covers the subject more comprehensively. This could be a formal List article, or an article with a formal bulleted list of locations, or an article to which the location is related and lists other locations informally. Links to locations should use this redirect and should be piped with the target page name. This allows "what links here" to be used to identify the links to the individual sections. This redirect template populates and when the first parameter is not used,  is also populated.

Usage
Use this template on any mainspace redirect from a fictional location to a related fictional article or to a list in which the location is an entry, either as a section or as non-section entries. If the redirect is to a section also use R to section; if it is to an anchor (other than a "section anchor") use R to anchor.

General usage
Add this redirect category to a redirect ( a talk-page redirect) in the following manner:

Template Redirect category shell may be used to add as many appropriate redirect categories as needed. For more information see the documentation on its template documentation.

This redirect category may also tag a redirect individually:

This is in accord with instructions found at REDCAT.

Usage with creative work parameter
An optional unnamed parameter, (name of work), may be used to supply the name of the creative work that includes the location. This will sort the redirect into a more specific category for that work. For example:

All three of the above will populate.

Usage with sort key parameter
A second optional unnamed parameter, (sort key) may be used to provide a sort key for the fictional location that is redirected. For example:

In, all three of the above sort the location redirect, "The Bassen Rift", in alphabetical order by "Bassen" ("B") instead of by "The" ("T"). Without the second parameter, the template sort key is either the redirect page name or the DEFAULTSORT, if included.

TemplateData
{	"description": "A redirect category template which is used to categorize redirects from a fictional location to a related article to a list of location.", "params": { "1": {			"label": "Series name", "type": "wiki-page-name", "required": false, "suggested": false, "deprecated": false, "description": "The series article name." },		"2": {			"label": "Sort key", "type": "string", "required": false, "suggested": false, "deprecated": false, "description": "A sort key for the redirect entry." }	},	"format": "inline" }

Corresponding category
Important note: the very first time that a creative-work-specific subcategory is named in the first parameter, that category will appear as a red link (Category:Tiddlywinks location redirects) at the bottom of the redirect page (if this is not seen or no categories can be seen at the bottom of the page, then be sure your preferences are set to see hidden categories). If the category link is red, it means that the category must be created to correctly sort the fictional location.

The category name should be similar to creative work article. So if the article uses disambiguation, the category should use it as well.

When creating the new category, place Fiction-based redirects to list entries category handler at the top as follows:

media should be the type of media the fictional work is. For example: Television, Film. If in doubt, check Category:Redirects from fictional locations and see what categories are available.

Printworthiness

 * In main-article namespace, some redirects are considered unprintworthy and others printworthy, so there is no default sort for printworthiness. In 2003, efforts were begun to support the Wikimedia Foundation's goal of increasing access and availability of Wikipedia articles in . Some redirect category templates automatically populate either or  by default. Others like this template, do not, and that means it is up to editors to choose which of those redirect categories, Printworthy or Unprintworthy, is appropriate and should be populated. The templates that are used separately to populate those categories are:
