From a shortcut: This is a redirect from a shortcut in any namespace to a page in any namespace except template namespace.
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}}.
Used for convenience: This is a redirect from a title that is intended to make it easier to get to the target page; the target is a more appropriate page for the purpose of the redirected title. This rcat is reserved for redirects that target talk pages to centralize discussion and redirects that may not fit other descriptions.
For example, this may be a redirect from a title that is used colloquially; however, it is not currently an officially accepted term, though it may have been in the past. It leads to the title in accordance with the naming conventions for common names and can help writing and searches. This redirect does not need to be replaced with a piped link.
When appropriate, protection levels are automatically sensed, described and categorized.
