__NOTOC__
=== Usage ===
{{hatnote|Use this rcat template on '''[[wp:mainspace|mainspace]] redirects only'''.}}
* This redirect category ([[wp:RCAT|rcat]]) template populates {{Cat|Redirects from abbreviations}}. Add this rcat to a [[Wikipedia:redirect|redirect]] (''not'' a [[Help:talk-page|talk-page]] redirect) in the following manner:
<pre>
#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from abbreviation}}
}}
</pre>
: 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:
<pre>
#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]

{{R from abbreviation}}
</pre>
: This is in accord with instructions found at [[Wikipedia:REDCAT]].
* Use this rcat to tag only mainspace redirects from [[abbreviation]]s to their expanded forms. Please ''do not'' use this template to tag an [[initialism]] or [[acronym]], which are special types of abbreviations consisting of [usually] capital latters, such as HIV and NATO. For those, ''instead'' use {{tl|R from initialism}} for those sounded out as letters, like CIA and USSR; or {{tl|R from acronym}} for those read as words, like UNESCO and NASA. Also, if the redirect is from the initials of a personal name, then use the {{tl|R from short name}} rcat ''instead''.
* If an initialism redirect is not in mainspace, then tag it with {{tl|R from short name}} or {{tl|R from shortcut}} ''instead''.

=== 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 abbreviation redirects to expanded forms are considered unprintworthy; however, there are many 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:'''
<pre>
{{Rcat shell|
{{R from abbreviation}}
{{R printworthy}}
}}

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