Template:R from modification/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Template:R from modification. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

This template is used on approximately 657,000 pages, or roughly 1% of all pages. To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.

This template should not be soft redirects .

Usage

• 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}}
}}

#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]]

{{R from modification}}

• 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 {{
  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= or |of= will show the redirect as being a modification of the provided title, rather than the redirect target.

Printworthiness

Please do not alter the printworthy settings of this rcat without first notifying the Version 1.0 Editorial Team, who are responsible for any and all materials, including redirects, that go into a printed version of Wikipedia.

• In
  printworthiness. In 2003, efforts were begun to support the Wikimedia Foundation's goal of increasing access and availability of Wikipedia articles in printed versions. Some rcats automatically populate either Category:Printworthy redirects or Category:Unprintworthy redirects
  by default. Others, like this rcat, do not, and that means it is up to editors to choose which of those categories, Printworthy or Unprintworthy, is appropriate and should be populated. The rcats that are used separately to populate those categories are:

• {{R printworthy}} and
• {{R unprintworthy}}

Please click on each one for more details and guidance.

• Template {{Redirect category shell}} will accept these rcats just like any other.

Examples:

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

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from modification}}
{{R unprintworthy}}
}}

Either {{

Rcat shell

}}, may be used.
