Usage
Use this rcat template in any namespace.
- This redirect category (rcat) template populates Category:Redirects from modifications. Add this rcat to a redirect in the following manner:
#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]]
{{Rcat shell|
{{R from modification}}
}}
- 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 modification}}
- This is in accord with instructions found at Wikipedia:REDCAT.
- Use this rcat to tag any redirect in any namespace that is a modification of the target's title; for example, its words are rearranged, etc.
- If the redirect is from a title including the numeral form of a number to a title with the worded form, use the template {{R from numerals}} instead. If it is from the worded form to the numeral form, then use {{R to numerals}}.
- In cases of modification from distinctly shorter or longer names, instead please use {{R from short name}} or {{R from long name}}, respectively.
- Since rcats like {{R from other capitalisation}} and {{R from plural}} are only used in main-article namespace, this R from modification rcat is useful for other capitalisations, plurals, etc., in namespaces other than mainspace.
- This template should not be used with {{R from transliteration}}, which populates a subcategory of this rcat's category.
Parameters
This rcat takes two optional parameters:
|demo=yes
suppresses categorization for demonstration purposes.|1=

will show the redirect as being a modification of the provided title, rather than the redirect target.
