Usage
- This redirect category (rcat) template populates both Category:Redirects from airport codes and Category:Printworthy redirects by default. In 2003, efforts were begun to support the Wikimedia Foundation's goal of increasing access and availability of Wikipedia articles in printed versions. Mainspace redirects from airport codes are suitable for a printed version. In other words they are printworthy.
- Add this rcat to a redirect page (not a talk-page redirect) in the following manner:
#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]] {{Rcat shell| {{R from airport code}} {{R printworthy}} }}
- Template {{Rcat shell}} is an alias for the Redirect category shell template, which may be used to add as many appropriate rcats as needed, usually from one to seven, along with their parameters, to a redirect. For more information see the documentation on its template page. This rcat may also tag a redirect individually:
#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]] {{R from airport code}}
- This is in accord with instructions found at Wikipedia:REDCAT.
- Use this rcat on any redirect from an airport letter code or location identifier, such as IATA or ICAO, to the appropriate airport article. An example is
