Template:R from CamelCase/doc

Purpose
This template is a more specific choice to R from alternative capitalization, and it is used for redirects from "CamelCase" to more conventional spelling. In the initial versions of Wikipedia, all links had to be CamelCase. When that changed, these redirects were left behind and are a historic part of this encyclopedia.

Usage

 * This redirect category (rcat) template populates and, when the redirect is in the main-article namespace (mainspace),  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 .  Mainspace redirects from old CamelCase titles are not suitable for a printed version.  In other words they are unprintworthy.
 * Add this rcat to a redirect in the following manner:
 * 1) REDIRECT (target page name)


 * and when the redirect is in article mainspace, printworthiness should also be tagged:


 * 1) REDIRECT (target page name)


 * 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:


 * 1) REDIRECT (target page name)


 * This is in accord with instructions found at REDCAT.


 * Use this rcat on any redirect from a CamelCase title. An example is Redirect arrow without text.svg Shrugged.  These redirects are kept to maintain edit history and to avoid breaking links that have been made to the redirect, both internally and from external websites.  See WP:LINKROT.
