=== Usage ===
{{hatnote|Use this rcat template on '''[[wp:mainspace|mainspace]] redirects only'''.}}
* This redirect category ([[wp:RCAT|rcat]]) template populates both {{Cat|Redirects from Greek letter organization letters}} and {{Cat|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 {{diff|Wikipedia:Pushing to 1.0||1319195|printed versions}}. Redirects from Greek letter organization initialisms are suitable for a printed version. In other words they are [[WP:Printworthiness|printworthy]].
{{info|image=Stop hand nuvola.svg|Please do not alter the printworthy settings of this rcat without first notifying the '''[[WP:Version 1.0 Editorial Team|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 (not a [[Help:talk-page|talk-page]] redirect) in the following manner:
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from Greek letter organization letters}}
{{R printworthy}}
}}
</syntaxhighlight>
: Template {{tl|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:
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]

{{R from Greek letter organization letters}}
</syntaxhighlight>
: This is in accord with instructions found at [[Wikipedia:REDCAT]].
* Use this rcat on all mainspace redirects from two-, three- or more-letter initialisms that symbolize Greek letter organizations such as [[sororities]], [[fraternities]] and [[honor societies]] to articles titled with or that describe their expanded forms. To clarify, some '''[[Greek alphabet|Greek letters]]''' appear the same or similar to letters in the English (a.k.a. Roman and Latin) alphabet, for example:
** [[APX]] – English letters [[A]], [[P]] and [[X]], which title an article about a class in complexity theory
** {{-r|ΑΡΧ}}[[File:Redirect arrow without text.svg|35px]][[Alpha Rho Chi]] – Greek letters [[Α]] (alpha), [[Ρ]] (rho) and [[Χ]] (chi), which redirect to an article about a college fraternity
:: '''Important:''' Most redirects from Greek letter organization letters are composed only of letters from the Greek alphabet. A few of these organizations use other symbols and letters, for example, the [[FarmHouse International Fraternity]] uses the English letters "FH" to symbolize their fraternity, and yet FarmHouse is a "Greek letter organization".
:: Editors must take care not to use English letters when Greek letters are needed. If for example a three-letter redirect to a Greek letter organization is a mixture of Greek letters and a letter from the English alphabet, and the letters should all be from the Greek alphabet, then the redirect is considered to be a '''''misspelling''''' and should ''not'' be tagged with this rcat. Such misspelled redirects must be tagged as follows:
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from misspelling}}
{{R unprintworthy}}
}}
</syntaxhighlight>
* ''This rcat sorts to a '''subcategory''''' of both {{cat|Redirects from initialisms}} and {{cat|Redirects to ASCII-only titles}}, so please '''''do not''''' tag these redirects with {{tl|R from initialism}} or {{tl|R to ASCII-only}}.
