Italics override option

To editor Frietjes: Just curious as to when the italic album title would be overridden, since all album titles are formatted in italics. Technical reason? – Paine 20:47, 23 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Paine Ellsworth: it looks like I added it for iTunes Festival: London 07 – Imogen Heap: An Evening with I Megaphone where the title is lowercase and italics. the problem is you can't have two 'displaytitle' overrides in a single article. Frietjes (talk) 21:07, 23 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, love it. I saw the huge red-letter warning on preview. Just for future reference, the 1st (upper) instance of {{Redirect template}} in all rcats that have it only governs usage of the {{This is a redirect}} (Redr) template, while the lower instance governs the usage of rcats that tag redirects individually. Since Redr won't recognize named parameters (except nocat), I changed the upper instance to an unnamed (1st param) so that Redr can also use this function. Thank you for the enlightenment! – Paine 21:44, 23 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
