Template:R to disambiguation page/doc

Usage

 * This redirect category (rcat) template automatically populates and, when the redirect is in main-article namespace (mainspace), this rcat also populates  by default.  In 2003, efforts were begun to support the Wikimedia Foundation's goal of increasing access and availability of  Wikipedia articles in .  Mainspace redirects to disambiguation pages are not suitable for a printed version.  In other words they are unprintworthy.


 * Place this rcat on a redirect page (never on a talk page redirect) in the following manner:
 * and when the redirect is in article mainspace, printworthiness should also be tagged:


 * 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:


 * This is in accord with instructions found at REDCAT.

(Redirected from )
 * Use this rcat on all redirects to disambiguation (dab) pages if and only if the redirect on which this rcat is placed has the word "(disambiguation)" after its title. If an ambiguous subject does not have a primary topic, then the name of the subject will be the title of a dab page and will not have the word "(disambiguation)" following their page name.  For these, there should always be a redirect titled with exactly the same title plus the word "(disambiguation)".  An example is the dab page Antenna, which does not have the word "(disambiguation)" after its title.  The associated redirect that does is Antenna (disambiguation), and that redirects to the "Antenna" page.  If one clicks that "Antenna (disambiguation)" link, then just below the page title, "Antenna", appear the phrases:
 * From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
 * Click on that link either here or on the "Antenna" page to see the redirect. That redirect, the one with the word "(disambiguation)" in its title, is the only kind of redirect that should be categorized by this rcat.


 * If this rcat tags a redirect that does not have "(disambiguation)" in its title, the redirect will populate  and will need to be repaired.
