Template talk:R from CamelCase

This page is within the scope of WikiProject Redirect, a collaborative effort to improve the standard of redirects and their categorization on Wikipedia. If you would like to participate, please visit the project page, where you can join the discussion and see a list of open tasks.
Note: This banner should be placed on the talk pages of project, template and category pages that exist and operate to maintain redirects.
This banner is not designed to be placed on the talk pages of most redirects and almost never on the talk pages of mainspace redirects. For more information see the template documentation.RedirectWikipedia:WikiProject RedirectTemplate:WikiProject Redirectredirect pages

Template:R from CamelCase is permanently protected from editing because it is a heavily used or highly visible template. Substantial changes should first be proposed and discussed here on this page. If the proposal is uncontroversial or has been discussed and is supported by consensus, editors may use {{edit template-protected}} to notify an administrator or template editor to make the requested edit. Usually, any contributor may edit the template's documentation to add usage notes or categories.

Any contributor may edit the template's sandbox. This template does not have a testcases subpage. You can create the testcases subpage here.

This template (Template:R from CamelCase) was considered for deletion on August 2005. The result of the discussion was "keep".

Note: Any changes made to this template's content needs to be checked as workable in the tables on the references which include it directly:

linking CamelCase in Wikipedia:Template messages/Redirect pages#A to D

{{editprotected}} Please is there a reason for enclosing linked CamelCase between <noinclude> tags? I think that this causes the word to appear unlinked in this list: Wikipedia:Template messages/Redirect pages#A to D. I consider the link to be important because I did not know what CamelCase is. I propose to change

This is a redirect from a <noinclude>[[CamelCase]][[Category:All redirect templates]]</noinclude><includeonly>CamelCase</includeonly> title. In the initial versions of Wikipedia, all links had to be CamelCase.

I can see no reason for this either.

Main namespace only

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Since the Printworthy and Unprintworthy categories are to be populated by Main namespace redirects, a small modification to this Rcat will get the several redirects from other namespaces out of those categories. Please make the following change:

From this...

[[Category:Unprintworthy redirects]]

to this...

{{Main other|[[Category:Unprintworthy redirects]]}}

That will ensure that the Unprintworthy category will be populated only my Main namespace redirects that are tagged with the {{R from CamelCase}} Rcat. Thank you! – PIE ( CLIMAX ) 22:50, 6 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Edit needed

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

There now exists an {{R from subpage}} template that redirects to Template:R with old history, so it is confusing to use "subpages" in this Rcat. Please modify the first sentence as follows:

from this...

This is a redirect from a [[w:CamelCase|CamelCase]] or [[Wikipedia:Subpages|subpage]] title.

to this...

This is a redirect from a [[w:CamelCase|CamelCase]] title.
