Template:R from move

From Second Life Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search
This rcat template is automatically added to all new redirects that result from page moves; it must be added manually to older redirects when appropriate.

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

Template {{Redirect category shell}} may be used to add one or more "Wikipedia logo"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 page move: This is a redirect from a page that has been moved (renamed). This page was kept as a redirect to avoid breaking links, both internal and external, that may have been made to the old page name.

Usage

Use this rcat template in any "Wikipedia logo"namespace.
  • This redirect category ("Wikipedia logo"rcat) template populates Category:Redirects from moves, which is used to track all page moves that, if a redirect had not been left behind, would result in the breakage of links, both internal "Wikipedia logo"wikilinks and external "Wikipedia logo"internet website links. See "Wikipedia logo"WP:LINKROT.
  • For all "Wikipedia logo"redirects that have a page move logged on their history page(s), add this rcat in the following manner:
#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]]
 
{{Rcat shell|
{{R from move}}
}}
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 page name)]]
 
{{R from move}}
This is in accord with instructions found at "Wikipedia logo"Wikipedia:REDCAT.
  • Use this rcat to tag any redirect in any namespace that has a "Wikipedia logo"page move (rename) logged in their "Wikipedia logo"page history (this should be checked at least three pages back into the page history, a check which takes just a few seconds). This tagging has become automated; however, there are still many older redirects from moves that need to be manually tagged by this rcat.

Aliases

Printworthiness

  • In "Wikipedia logo"main-article namespace, many redirects from moved pages are considered unprintworthy; however, there are many others that are printworthy, so there is no default sort for "Wikipedia logo"printworthiness. In 2003, efforts were begun to support the "Wikipedia logo"Wikimedia Foundation's goal of increasing access and availability of Wikipedia articles in Template:Diff. Some rcats automatically populate either Category:Printworthy redirects or Category:Unprintworthy redirects by default. Others, like this rcat, do not, and that means it is up to editors to choose which of those categories, Printworthy or Unprintworthy, is appropriate and should be populated. The rcats that are used separately to populate those categories are:

Examples:
{{Rcat shell|
{{R from move}}
{{R printworthy}}
}}
 
{{Rcat shell|
{{R from move}}
{{R unprintworthy}}
}}
Either {{Redirect category shell}} or its alias/shortcut, {{Rcat shell}}, may be used.

Error detection and correction

Whenever page moves result in the inadvertent "Wikipedia logo"talk page redirect that targets a different page than the talk page of the "Wikipedia logo"subject-page redirect's target, then the talk page and the subject page will not be synchronized, and this template will also populate:

Moved pages that are exceptions, for example, pages and subpages that redirect to talk pages to centralize discussions, can be added to the {{R from move/except}} page.
