Template:R from other capitalisation/doc

Usage

Use this rcat template on mainspace redirects only.

• This rcat populates both Category:Redirects from other capitalisations, which must be populated by main-article namespace (mainspace) redirects only, and Category:Unprintworthy redirects. At some point in the future, Jimmy Wales wants to make more printed versions of Wikipedia encyclopedia articles. Most redirects to other capitalisations are not suitable for a printed version. In other words, they are unprintworthy. See below for what to do for the few redirects from other capitalisations that are printworthy.
• Place this rcat after the mainspace redirect target (not on any talk page) in the following manner:

#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]

{{Redr|from other capitalisation}}

Template {{Redr}} is an alias for the This is a redirect template, which may be used to add up to seven appropriate rcats, along with their parameters, to a redirect. For more information see the documentation on its template page and its comparison page. This rcat may also tag a redirect individually:

#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]

{{R from other capitalisation}}

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

• Use this rcat to tag any mainspace redirect from a title with another method of capitalisation. It leads to the title in accordance with the Wikipedia naming conventions for capitalisation and may help writing, searching and international language issues.
• If this rcat is placed on any redirect in a namespace other than mainspace, it will not appear on the redirect, and it will not place the redirect in the Redirects from other capitalisations category. Instead, the redirect will be placed in Category:Pages with templates in the wrong namespace and will require repair. When an other-capitalisation redirect is not in mainspace, then use {{R from modification}} instead.
• Other variants should use one of the other rcats such as {{R from alternative spelling}} or {{R from alternative name}}.

Parameters

• |1=printworthy – By default, this template tags and categorizes redirects as unprintworthy. Use the first parameter to subdue this behavior and populate Category:Printworthy redirects in the following manner:

{{Redr|from other capitalisation|p1=printworthy}}

or

{{R from other capitalisation|printworthy}}

• |2=text, |of=text or |reason=text, use of any of these will change:

1. REDIRECT Template:Talk quote inline

• This is a redirect from a page that has been moved (renamed). This page was kept as a redirect to avoid breaking links, both internal and external, that may have been made to the old page name. For more information follow the bold category link.

to:

"...from a title with another method of capitalisation of text."

This is useful when the term redirected from is an alternative capitalisation of a different name for or subtopic of the article title rather than of the title itself. For example, the redirect Northern Blue Jay:

#REDIRECT [[Blue jay#Subspecies]]

{{Redr|from subtopic|to subsection|from other capitalisation|n3=the redirect {{-r|Northern blue jay}}|unprintworthy}}

or if applied individually:

#REDIRECT [[Blue jay#Subspecies]]
{{R from subtopic}}
{{R to subsection}}
{{R from other capitalisation|of=the redirect {{-r|Northern blue jay}}}}
