When used with the "Redirect category shell" (Rcat shell) template:
This page is a redirect. The following categories are used to track and monitor this redirect:
|
- Template {{Redirect category shell}} may be used to add one or more rcat templates, along with their parameters and categories, to a redirect. For more information, see the documentation page below.
When used by itself:
- From a Greek letter organization's initialism: This is a redirect from the initialism (usually Greek letter Unicode symbols) for a Greek letter organization (sorority, fraternity, honor society, etc.) to an article that is titled with or describes the expanded form of the initialism.
- This rcat sorts to a subcategory of both Category:Redirects from initialisms and Category:Redirects to ASCII-only titles, so please do not sort this redirect to those parent categories.
 | This template should not be substituted nor used to tag soft redirects. |
Usage
- This redirect category (rcat) template populates both Category:Redirects from Greek letter organization letters and Category:Printworthy redirects by default. In 2003, efforts were begun to support the Wikimedia Foundation's goal of increasing access and availability of Wikipedia articles in printed versions. Redirects from Greek letter organization initialisms are suitable for a printed version. In other words they are printworthy.
 | Please do not alter the printworthy settings of this rcat without first notifying the 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 (not a talk-page redirect) in the following manner:
#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]
{{Rcat shell|
{{R from Greek letter organization letters}}
{{R printworthy}}
}}
- 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)]]
{{R from Greek letter organization letters}}
- This is in accord with instructions found at Wikipedia:REDCAT.
- Use this rcat on all mainspace redirects from two-, three- or more-letter initialisms that symbolize Greek letter organizations such as sororities, fraternities and honor societies to articles titled with or that describe their expanded forms. To clarify, some Greek letters appear the same or similar to letters in the English (a.k.a. Roman and Latin) alphabet, for example:
- Important: Most redirects from Greek letter organization letters are composed only of letters from the Greek alphabet. A few of these organizations use other symbols and letters, for example, the FarmHouse International Fraternity uses the English letters "FH" to symbolize their fraternity, and yet FarmHouse is a "Greek letter organization".
- Editors must take care not to use English letters when Greek letters are needed. If for example a three-letter redirect to a Greek letter organization is a mixture of Greek letters and a letter from the English alphabet, and the letters should all be from the Greek alphabet, then the redirect is considered to be a misspelling and should not be tagged with this rcat. Such misspelled redirects must be tagged as follows:
#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]
{{Rcat shell|
{{R from misspelling}}
{{R unprintworthy}}
}}
- This rcat sorts to a subcategory of both Category:Redirects from initialisms and Category:Redirects to ASCII-only titles, so please do not tag these redirects with {{R from initialism}} or {{R to ASCII-only}}.
