Template talk:R from journal

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

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:

"Journal" or "Journal article"?

The text of this template refers to a "journal article", ie a paper in a journal, perhaps a single scientific breakthrough. I think this is confusing. The redirects in Category:Redirects from journals are all titles of journals, as you would expect, rather than individual "journal articles".

Could we amend this template to clarify it?

At present it displays:

This is a redirect from a trade or professional journal article to a more general, relevant Wikipedia article, such as the author or publisher of the article or to the title in an alternative language.

Journal articles should only have an individual article when they meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines and there is enough material to warrant a detailed article.

I suggest we should modify this to (my changes bolded):

This is a redirect from a trade or professional journal title to a more general, relevant Wikipedia article, such as the author or publisher of the journal or to the title in an alternative language.

(Or, more simply, just omit "article" or "title": This is a redirect from a trade or professional journal to a more general, relevant Wikipedia article...

Journals should only have an individual article when they meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines and there is enough material to warrant a detailed article.

Any thoughts? I'll mention this at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Academic Journals, as the venue for folk interested in journals. PamD 10:07, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Why not let it be a redirect for both? --awkwafaba (📥) 13:08, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
