- 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.
- From an incomplete name: This is a redirect from a title that is an incomplete form of a topic's correct name. The correct name is given by the target of this redirect.
- Use this rcat to tag redirects from an incomplete form of a name, including a person's, a geographic entity's full name, or a book title. For acceptable short names, please use {{R from short name}} instead. For outright erroneous names, please use {{R from incorrect name}} instead.
- This redirect is kept to aid searches. Pages linking to this title should be updated to link directly to the correct title given above, unless the form is an acceptable short name better tagged by {{R from short name}}.
- This template tags redirects with a subcategory of the Redirects from incorrect names category, so the template {{R from incorrect name}} should not be used with this one.

Usage
- This redirect category (rcat) template populates Category:Redirects from incomplete names and, when the redirect is in main-article namespace (mainspace), then Category: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 Template:Diff. Mainspace redirects that are incomplete names are not suitable for a printed version. In other words they are unprintworthy.
 | 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. |
