Template:R from case citation

When used inside the {{Redirect category shell}} template:

When used by itself:

• From case citation: This is a redirect from a legal case citation to its associated article about the case.

Template documentation follows
Note: the template above may sometimes be partially or fully invisible.
Visit "Template:R from case citation/doc" to edit its documentation if it is available. (How does this work?)

Usage

Use this rcat template on mainspace redirects only.

• This redirect category (rcat) template populates both Category:Redirects from case citations and Category:Unprintworthy 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 case citations are not suitable for a printed version. In other words they are unprintworthy.

• Add this rcat to a redirect (not a talk-page redirect) in the following manner:

#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from case citation}}
{{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 article title)]]

{{R from case citation}}

This is in accord with instructions found at Wikipedia:REDCAT.

• Use this rcat to tag all mainspace redirects from legal case citation numbers to their associated articles about the cases.
• There is one unnamed parameter, |1=(case citation code), that is used to sort US Supreme Court cases in the category in the following manner:

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from case citation|0XXX U.S. XXXX}}
{{R unprintworthy}}
}}

or

{{R from case citation|0XXX U.S. XXXX}}

where "X's" indicate the numbers of the case citation code. An example is "0379 U.S. 0089", which correctly sorts the redirect:

• 379 U.S. 89Beck v. Ohio.

That will ensure that the case numbers are correctly sorted in the category.
