Redirect

{{R to trade name}}

Usage

This type of redirect is specified at Wikipedia:WikiProject Drugs/General/Naming of drug pages. It places pages in Category:Redirects from trade names 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. Mainspace redirects from the trade names of drugs are suitable for a printed version. In other words they are printworthy.

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

#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from trade name}}
{{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 from trade name}}

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

Use this rcat to tag any mainspace redirect from (or to) the trade name of a drug to (or from) the International Nonproprietary Name (INN). Since the complementary rcat, {{R to trade name}}, redirects here, it can be used for those few redirects that are titled as INNs and that target trade names.
