Category:Redirects from enacted legislation

The pages in this category are redirects from the alphanumeric form of enacted legislation to an alternative title that directly corresponds with the enacted legislation's alphanumeric form. To add a redirect to this category, place {{Rcat shell|{{R from legislation}}}} on the second new line (skip a line) after #REDIRECT [[Target page name]], and when needed, place {{DEFAULTSORT:<sort key>}} on the first new line after the shell template. For more information follow the links. Never substitute redirect template(s), nor place them on soft redirects. See also the complete list of redirect templates and the redirect style guide.

This is a maintenance category, used for maintenance of the Wikipedia project. It is not part of the encyclopedia and contains non-article pages, or groups articles by status rather than subject. Do not include this category in content categories. This is a tracking category. It builds and maintains a list of pages primarily for the sake of the list itself. They are not part of the encyclopedia's categorization scheme. This category is hidden on its member pages—unless the corresponding user preference (Appearance → Show hidden categories) is set. These categories can be used to track, build and organize lists of pages needing "attention en masse" (for example, pages using deprecated syntax), or that may need to be edited at someone's earliest convenience. These categories also serve to aggregate members of several lists or sub-categories into a larger, more efficient list (discriminated by classifications).

Because legislation is enacted in its alphanumeric form, the short and long titles they formally carry have the likeliest chance of one becoming the article's title, per WP:COMMONNAME.

Consider Proclamation 95; for example: the article is properly titled by its better known common name: the "Emancipation Proclamation" yet the alphanumeric form of the enacted legislation is an important search term that needs to be linked.

The titles listed in this category are categorized as unprintworthy by this rcat's default. They are predominately listed in the main article as the long and short title of the enacted legislation's alphanumeric form.
