Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.
Summary
- This template is for creating soft redirects, that is to say, short pages inviting readers to visit another page on a different Wikimedia project. This cannot be performed with a classical redirect due to technical restrictions.
- This template is also used to redirect an entry to a special page, in which case hard redirects have been disabled.
- Occasionally it is used to effectively disable a redirect that has been deprecated, e.g. WP:DIVA, in which case {{Historical}} is usually also used, above the soft redirect template.
- For redirecting categories, use {{Category redirect}} instead.
- For all other redirects within the English Wikipedia, please continue to use
#REDIRECT [[Other article]].
This places tagged pages in Category:Wikipedia soft redirects or Category:User soft redirects.
