Template:R from ligature/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Usage

[edit]
  • Add this rcat to a redirect in the following manner:
#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from ligature}}
}}
and when the redirect is in article mainspace, printworthiness should also be tagged:
#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from ligature}}
{{R unprintworthy}}
}}
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 ligature}}
This is in accord with instructions found at Wikipedia:REDCAT.
  • Use this rcat on any redirect from a page title that has one or more ligatures – (Æ or æ; Œ or œ; IJ or ij, or ß) – to essentially the same page name without any ligatures.
  • A sortkey is required that will sort by the target's title rather than by the (default sort) redirect's title. Also, these redirects sometimes need to be sorted by surname or when a title begins with "A..." or "The...". Sort such redirects by using the {{DEFAULTSORT}} magic word in the following manner:
#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from ligature}}
{{R unprintworthy}}
}}
Place it on the first new line (do not skip a line) after the Rcat shell. Skipping a line will introduce unnecessary whitespace below the Rcat shell after the edit is saved.
  • By default, this template tags redirects as unprintworthy. To tag and categorize a redirect as printworthy, use the bar key ( ¦ ) on your keyboard to type the addition ¦printworthy in the following manner:
{{Rcat shell|
{{R from ligature|printworthy}}
{{R printworthy}}
}}
Note: The bar key ( ¦ ) on the keyboard renders as a pipe ( | ) on the screen.
That will subdue the default unprintworthy category and populate Category:Printworthy redirects instead.
