Template:R from shortcut
- This is a redirect from a shortcut in any namespace to a page in any namespace except template namespace. For more information follow the category link.
- If target page is a template, then use {{R from template shortcut}} instead. Shortcuts are wikilinked on community pages, talk pages and edit summaries, but not in mainspace articles.
- Note: Template talk pages are in a talk namespace; they are not in the template namespace. All shortcuts to talk pages should be tagged with {{R from shortcut}}.

Usage
- This redirect category (rcat) template populates Category:Redirects from shortcuts and, when the shortcut is in main-article namespace (mainspace), then Category:Unprintworthy redirects is also populated by default. At some point in the future, Jimmy Wales wants to make more printed versions of Wikipedia encyclopedia articles. Aliases/shortcuts in mainspace are not suitable for a printed version. In other words they are unprintworthy.
- Add this rcat to a redirect in the following manner:
#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]]
{{R from shortcut}}
- This is in accord with instructions found at Wikipedia:REDCAT.
- Template {{This is a redirect}} may also be used to add this and up to seven appropriate rcats to a redirect.
- Use this rcat on any redirect from a Wikipedia (WP:, MOS:, etc.) shortcut. Shortcuts are historically reserved for Wikipedia project pages, their discussion and help pages, and categories, and they are now used in all namespaces. If the redirect is a shortcut to the template namespace and the redirect itself is in any namespace, then use {{R from template shortcut}} instead of
{{R from shortcut}}. It is the target page that determines this, so if a redirect is in the template namespace and targets a page in any other namespace, then it is not a template shortcut and should be tagged with{{R from shortcut}}.
