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:

  • From a taxon with possibilities: This is a redirect from a title related to a living organism that potentially could be expanded into an article. A redirect that employs this template will usually be a generally accepted species name that targets an article about a genus (or higher taxon).
    • For guidance on how to start a new page from a section, please see Wikipedia:Summary style. It is important that the topic is notable in accordance with the guideline, and that the article is structured in line with the manual of style; otherwise, there is a possibility that the article will be re-merged and turned back into a redirect.
    • Do not replace these redirected links with piped links.

Usage

  • Add this rcat to a redirect page (not a talk-page redirect) in the following manner:
#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R taxon with possibilities}}
{{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 taxon with possibilities}}
This is in accord with instructions found at Wikipedia:REDCAT.
  • Use this rcat to tag any mainspace, taxon-related redirect that may possibly stand alone as an article about a notable living organism subject. If you see a redirect with this template, and you are moved to write the article, then be BOLD!
