Template:R from diacritic

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

When used by itself:

• From the same page name with diacritics: This is a redirect from a page name that has diacritical marks (accents, umlauts, etc.) to essentially the same page name without those marks or a "List of..." page anchored to a promising list item name without diacritics.
  • Apply this redirect (without piping) when the subject page concerns language translation or foreign language equivalents. Other pages that use this redirect should be updated with a direct link to the redirect target (again, without piping).
  • This rcat can also be used on redirects to sections and anchors to indicate the diacritics version of a term/name written both ways.

Usage

Use this rcat template in any namespace.

• This redirect category (rcat) template populates Category:Redirects from titles with diacritics and, if the redirect is in main-article namespace (mainspace), Category:Unprintworthy redirects is also populated 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. Mainspace redirects from titles with diacritics are frequently unsuitable for a printed version. In other words they are usually unprintworthy. See below for what to do for those few redirects with diacritical marks that are considered printworthy.

• Add this rcat to a redirect in the following manner:

#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from diacritic}}
}}

and when the redirect is in article mainspace, printworthiness should also be tagged:

#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from diacritic}}
{{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 diacritic}}

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

• Use this rcat on any redirect with diacritical marks (accents, umlauts, etc.) to essentially the same page name that does not have diacritical marks.
• By default, this template places redirects in the Unprintworthy redirects category. To tag and categorize a redirect as "printworthy", type the addition printworthy in the following manner:

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from diacritic|printworthy}}
{{R printworthy}}
}}

or

{{R from diacritic|printworthy}}
{{R printworthy}}

That will suppress the unprintworthy category and place the redirect in Category:Printworthy redirects.
