If target page is not a template, then use {{R from shortcut}} instead.
Template shortcuts are wikilinked on community pages, talk pages and edit summaries, but not in mainspace articles. Transclusions in mainspace are common and do not need to be "fixed".
Note:Template talk pages are in a talk namespace; they are not in the template namespace. All shortcuts to talk pages should be tagged with {{R from shortcut}}.
From a longer title: This is a redirect from a title that is a complete, more complete or longer version of the topic's name. It leads to the title in accordance with the naming conventions for common names and can help writing and searches. However, do not replace these redirected links with a piped link unless the page is updated for another reason.
From a more specific name: This is a redirect from a title that is a more specific name to a less specific, more general one.
It may be a more specialized term, include extraneous identifiers, or simply be worded more narrowly. It leads to the title in accordance with the naming conventions for common names and can help writing and searches. It is not necessary to replace these redirected links with a piped link.
When appropriate, protection levels are automatically sensed, described and categorized.
