Category:Unsynchronized talk page redirects
The pages in this category are redirects from moved (renamed) titles that are unsynchronized so that talk page targets do not match subject page targets. To add a redirect to this category, place {{Rcat shell|{{R from move}}}} on the second new line (skip a line) after #REDIRECT [[Target page name]] . 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. |

In most cases, a talk-page redirect is synchronized to its subject-page redirect, which means that both of their target pages, excluding namespaces, are exactly the same.
Pages in this category are talk page redirects that result from page moves and are unsynchronized to their subject pages' targets. For example, if Apple redirects to Computer and Talk:Apple redirects to Talk:Fruit, then the Talk:Apple redirect is unsynchronized to its subject page's target. Or, an article was moved without moving its talk page at the same time. For example, John Doee (a misspelling), was moved and redirects to John Doe, while Talk:John Doee was not moved and does not redirect.
Many pages populate this category temporarily after they are moved, due to a lag in the job queue. A null edit will remove these pages from the category.
Other, more permanent reasons for pages populating this category include content merges and changes in primary topics.
To synchronize the two redirects, do one of the following:
- Retarget Talk:Apple to "Talk:Computer"
- Retarget the subject page, Apple, to "Fruit"
- Move the talk page, Talk:John Doee to "Talk:John Doe"
- Null edit the page
Redirects are placed here by template {{R from move}}, which is presently used on a very large number of pages.
This category is periodically cleared by User:Bot1058 (task 4), excepting:
- Pages requiring administrators to move them to sync them
- Pages which are not actually redirects (example #1, example #2, example #3)
