__NOTOC__
== Usage ==
{{hatnote|Use this rcat template on '''[[Wikipedia:Mainspace|mainspace]] redirects only'''.}}

This redirect category ([[Wikipedia:Categorizing redirects|rcat]]) template populates {{Cat|Redirects from subtopics}}. Add this rcat to a [[Wikipedia:Redirect pages|redirect page]] ({{em|not}} a [[Help:talk-page|talk-page]] redirect) in the following manner, in accord with instructions found at [[WP:REDCAT]]:
<pre>
#REDIRECT [[Target article title]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from subtopic}}
}}
</pre>
Template {{tlx|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, without {{tnull|Rcat shell}}, though this is now {{strongbad|deprecated}}:
<pre style="color: #8B0000;">
#REDIRECT [[Target article title]]

{{R from subtopic}}
</pre>

Use this rcat to tag any mainspace redirect that is a [[Wikipedia:Subtopics|subtopic]] of the target, if a more specific rcat template (i.e., a more specific subcategory of {{cat|Redirects from subtopics}}) is not available. This type of redirect might target an article section ({{tlx|R to section}}) and may also have "possibilities" ({{tlx|R with possibilities}}) of becoming a separate ''Wikipedia'' article. Use those two rcats along with this one, {{tnull|R from subtopic}}, when appropriate.

To go to a subsection (for this redirect in particular or at least including coverage of it somewhere within):
<pre>
#REDIRECT [[Target article title#Section name]]

{{R from subtopic}}
{{R to section}}
</pre>

=== Printworthiness ===
{{info|image=Stop hand nuvola.svg|Please do not alter the printworthy settings of this rcat without first notifying the '''[[WP:Version 1.0 Editorial Team|Version 1.0 Editorial Team]]''', who are responsible for any and all materials, including redirects, that go into a printed version of ''Wikipedia''.}}
* In main-article namespace, many redirects from subtopics are considered unprintworthy; however, there are many others that are printworthy, so there is no default sort for [[Wikipedia:Printworthiness|printworthiness]]. In 2003, efforts were begun to support the [[Wikimedia Foundation]]'s goal of increasing access and availability of ''Wikipedia'' articles in {{diff|Wikipedia:Pushing to 1.0||1319195|printed versions}}. Some rcats automatically populate either {{Cat|Printworthy redirects}} or {{Cat|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:
:* {{tlx|R printworthy}}
:* {{tlx|R unprintworthy}}
: Please click on each one for more details and guidance.

* Template {{tlx|Redirect category shell}} will accept these rcats just like any other.

:: '''Examples:'''
<pre>
{{Rcat shell|
{{R from subtopic}}
{{R printworthy}}
}}

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from subtopic}}
{{R unprintworthy}}
}}
</pre>
: Either {{tlx|Redirect category shell}} or its shortcut {{tlx|Rcat shell}} may be used.
