__NOTOC__
=== Usage ===
{{hatnote|Use this rcat template in '''any [[wp:namespace|namespace]]'''.}}
* This redirect category ([[WP:RCAT|rcat]]) template populates {{Cat|Redirects from non-neutral names}} and, when the redirect is in the [[wp:Mainspace|main-article namespace]] (mainspace), {{Cat|Unprintworthy redirects}} is also populated by default. 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}}. Most redirects from non-neutral titles are not suitable for a printed version. In other words they are [[WP:Printworthiness|unprintworthy]]. [[#print|See below]] for what to do for the few redirects from non-neutral names that are printworthy.
{{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''.}}
* Add this rcat to a redirect in the following manner:
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from non-neutral name}}
}}
</syntaxhighlight>
: and ''when the redirect is in article mainspace'', printworthiness should also be tagged:
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from non-neutral name}}
{{R unprintworthy}}
}}
</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 page name)]]

{{R from non-neutral name}}
</syntaxhighlight>
: This is in accord with instructions found at [[Wikipedia:REDCAT]].
* Use this rcat to tag any redirect in any namespace from a [[WP:POVNAMING|non-neutral title]], which is any word, phrase or name that is pejorative, not neutral, controversial or otherwise offensive and is therefore unsuitable to be used as a page name. Links to these redirects should normally be replaced with links directly to the target page names. An example of an exception would be where an article specifically discusses the [[Etymology|etymology/origin]] of the non-neutral name.

==== Printworthiness ====
{{anchor|print}}
* {{Para||printworthy}} parameter – By default, this template tags and categorizes redirects as unprintworthy. Use this parameter to subdue this behavior and populate {{Cat|Printworthy redirects}}:
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
{{Rcat shell|
{{R from non-neutral name|1=printworthy}}
{{R printworthy}}
}}
</syntaxhighlight>
: ''or'' the {{code|1{{=}}}} may be omitted:
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
{{Rcat shell|
{{R from non-neutral name|printworthy}}
{{R printworthy}}
}}
</syntaxhighlight>
: and when used individually:
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
{{R from non-neutral name|printworthy}}
</syntaxhighlight>

==== Aliases ====
* <span class="plainlinks">[{{fullurl:Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:R_from_non-neutral_name|hidetrans=1&hidelinks=1&limit=500}} Also known as...]</span> – list of templates that redirect here and may also be used
