__NOTOC__
=== Usage ===
{{hatnote|Use this rcat template on '''[[wp:mainspace|mainspace]] redirects only'''.}}
* This redirect category ([[WP:RCAT|rcat]]) template populates {{Cat|Redirects from codes}} by default. Add this rcat to a [[WP:Redirect pages|redirect page]] (''not'' a [[Help:talk-page|talk-page]] redirect) in the following manner:
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from code}}
}}
</syntaxhighlight>
: Template {{tl|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:
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]

{{R from code}}
</syntaxhighlight>
: This is in accord with instructions found at [[Wikipedia:REDCAT]].
* Use this rcat to tag any mainspace redirect from a [[code]] (not covered by the specific rcats below) to a related article. Examples are {{-r|DOCTYPE}}, {{-r|U+2864}} and redirects from [[HTML]] and [[hexadecimal]] codes.
* Other more specific rcats are used to tag redirects from various types of code, and those are to be used ''instead'' of this template when appropriate as follows:
** For ASCII codes use {{tl|R from ASCII code}}.
** For [[airport code]]s use {{tl|R from airport code}}.
** For [[ATC code|ATC (Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical) codes]], use {{tl|R from ATC code}} or {{tl|R from ATCvet code}} depending on the code.
** For citations of [[legal case]]s use {{tl|R from case citation}}.
** For [[International Standardisation Organisation|ISO]] codes, use:
*** {{tl|R from ISO 4}} for [[ISO 4|serial abbreviation]]s
*** {{tl|R from ISO 639 code}} for [[language code]]s
*** {{tl|R from ISO 3166 code}} for [[geographic code]]s
*** {{tl|R from ISO 4217 code}} for [[currency code]]s
*** {{tl|R from ISO 15924 code}} for [[script code]]s
** For postal abbreviations, use {{tl|R from postal abbreviation}}.
*** For [[United States postal abbreviations]] specifically, use {{tl|R from US postal abbreviation}}.
** For [[postal code]]s such as [[ZIP Code]]s, use {{tl|R from postal code}}.
*** For [[United Kingdom postal codes]] specifically, use {{tl|R from UK postcode}}.
** For telephone [[calling code]]s use {{tl|R from calling code}}.
** For Unicode U+ codes use {{tl|R from Unicode code}}.

=== 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, some code redirects are unprintworthy; however, there are others that are printworthy, so there is no default sort for [[wp: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}} and
:* {{tlx|R unprintworthy}}
: Please click on each one for more details and guidance.
* Template {{tl|Redirect category shell}} will accept these rcats just like any other.
:: '''Examples:'''
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
{{Rcat shell|
{{R from code}}
{{R printworthy}}
}}

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from code}}
{{R unprintworthy}}
}}
</syntaxhighlight>
: Either {{tl|Redirect category shell}} or its alias/shortcut, {{tl|Rcat shell}}, may be used.
