Usage

Use this rcat template on mainspace redirects only.

This redirect category (rcat) template populates Category:Comics redirects to sections by default. Place this rcat on a redirect page (not a talk-page redirect) in the following manner:

#REDIRECT [[(target article title)#(target section header)]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R comics to section}}
}}

Template {{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:

#REDIRECT [[(target article title)#(target section header)]]

{{R comics to section}}

This is in accord with instructions found at Wikipedia:REDCAT.

• Use this rcat on any mainspace comics redirect to a section in which the subject is mentioned.
• Please use the following rcats instead when more appropriate:

This page is being depreciated, which populates Category:Redirects to embedded anchors

This page is being depreciated, which populates Category:Comics redirects to lists; see also Wikipedia:Lists

Printworthiness

• In main-article namespace, many comics redirects to article sections are considered printworthy, perhaps even with the possibility to become a separate article; however, there are many other such redirects that are unprintworthy, so there is no default sort for printworthiness.
• In 2003, efforts were begun to support the Wikimedia Foundation's goal of increasing access and availability of Wikipedia articles in printed versions. Some rcats automatically populate either Category:Printworthy redirects or Category: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:

• This page is being depreciated and
• This page is being depreciated

Please click on each one for more details and guidance.

• Template {{Redirect category shell}} will accept these and any other rcats:

{{Redirect category shell|
{{R comics to section}}
{{R printworthy}}
}}

{{Redirect category shell|
{{R comics to section}}
{{R unprintworthy}}
}}
