When used with the "Redirect category shell" (Rcat shell) template:
This page is a redirect. The following categories are used to track and monitor this redirect:
|
- 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:
- Middle-earth, with possibilities: This is a redirect from the name of a Middle-earth topic which currently redirects to a section or to an entry in a list or other article, and which may be expandable into a separate article. The topic described by the title is more detailed than what is currently provided on the target page, or section of that page.
- When the target page becomes too large, this redirect may be replaced with an article carved out of the target page. See also {{R ME to section}}, and when appropriate, use both together.
- If the topic is not susceptible to a major expansion, tag instead with {{R ME to section}} or {{R ME to list entry}} as applicable.
- Do not replace these redirected links with a link directly to the target page.
 | This template should not be substituted nor used to tag soft redirects. |
Usage
edit- This redirect category (rcat) template populates Category:Middle-earth 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. Redirects from titles that might possibly become articles themselves someday are considered to be suitable for a printed version of this encyclopedia. In other words they are printworthy.
 | Please do not alter the printworthy settings of this rcat without first notifying the Version 1.0 Editorial Team, who are responsible for any and all materials, including redirects, that go into a printed version of Wikipedia. |
- Add this rcat to a redirect page (not a talk-page redirect) in the following manner:
#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]
{{Rcat shell|
{{R ME 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 ME with possibilities}}
- This is in accord with the instructions found at Wikipedia:REDCAT.
- Use this rcat to tag any mainspace redirect that, in your opinion, may stand alone as an article on a notable Middle-earth subject. If you see a redirect with this template, and you are moved to write the article, then be BOLD!
