When used with the "Redirect category shell" (Rcat shell) template:

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:

  • Upcoming films: This is a redirect from a title that potentially could be expanded into a new article or other type of associated page such as a new template. The topic described by this title may be more detailed than is currently provided on the target page or in a section of that page.
    • {{R printworthy}} should be used together with this template when applied to a redirect in mainspace.
    • When used on a template redirect, it will automatically populate Category:Redirects from upcoming films.
    • When the target page becomes too large, or for any reason a new page would be an improvement, this redirect may be replaced with an article, template or other project page that is carved out of the target page. See also {{R to section}} and use together with this rcat when appropriate.
    • If the topic of the redirect is not susceptible to expansion, then use other rcats such as {{R to section}} or {{R to list entry}} when appropriate.
    • Since a new page may be created, links to this redirect should not be replaced with a direct link to the target page.

Usage

#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from upcoming film}}
}}
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 upcoming film}}
This is in accord with instructions found at Wikipedia:REDCAT.
  • Use this rcat on any mainspace redirect from a film title that is a subtopic of its target or a title in an alternative language that has been produced in that language.
  • Occasionally, a film title might require the use of {{DISPLAYTITLE}} or {{Italic title}} with its |string= parameter to format the title of the redirect. In those cases the default italic title will interfere with that format and must be subdued. When this rcat tags a redirect from within the Rcat shell template, this is done in the following manner:
{{Rcat shell|
{{R from upcoming film|1=noitalic}}
}}
or the 1= may be omitted:
{{Rcat shell|
{{R from upcoming film|noitalic}}
}}
and if used individually:
{{R from upcoming film|noitalic}}
That will subdue the default italic title so no title-display conflict will result.
