Categoría:Redirects

The pages in this category serve as redirects to other pages. This category should not be applied to redirect pages. For a list of all redirect pages, see Special: ListRedirects. For other useful information, see Special: BrokenRedirects and Special: DoubleRedirects.

All redirect pages should receive one of six redirect subcategories:

Category: Correction redirects

Use when the term contains an error; when it's a mistaken construction (typos, capitalization errors, etc.) of the correct page's name.

Example: "Scadrian System" to "Scadrian system" | "Paliah" to "Pailiah"

Category: Nominal redirects

Use when the term is an alternate name for some other page.

Examples: "Adolin" to "Adolin Kholin" | "Swims Against the Current in a Stream Reflecting the Sun" to "Swims Upstream"

Category: Structural redirects

Use when the term you're looking for doesn't have a page because we've named the page after a related term.

Note: Applicable content categories should sometimes be manually applied to these redirect pages as if the page were a true article. Do this if the term is a distinct one that should appear on category pages where the target of the redirect would not appear.

Examples: "Dustbringer" to "Order of Dustbringers" | "Allomancer" to "Allomancy"

Category: Subsection redirects

Use when the term is addressed in the body of another page.

Note: Applicable content categories should generally be manually applied to these redirect pages as if the page were a true article. Do this if the term is a distinct one that should appear on category pages where the target of the redirect would not appear.

Examples: "Abrasion" to "Surgebinding" | "Salas" to "Roshar"

Category: Spoiler redirects

Rarely, redirecting a page to its true target could result in someone seeing extensive spoilers. In these cases, a "spoiler redirect" may be created for one of the pages, with only minimal information. Consult with the Keepers about new spoiler redirects.

Note: Category:Aliases and occasionally other applicable content categories should be manually applied to these redirect pages

Examples: "Lessie" to "Paalm"

Category: Interwiki redirects

Occasionally, a redirect sends the user directly to another wiki, usually Wikipedia. These redirects exist almost solely for people who search the term, as attempting to go to the redirect will send you to the other wiki, which will not have a "Redirected from" note. If you need to view an interwiki redirect, you must type out its Coppermind URL and append ?&redirect=no. Consult with the Keepers about new interwiki redirects.

Note: Applicable content categories should sometimes be manually applied to these redirect pages, as if the target page were an actual Coppermind article.

Examples: "Cymatics (redirect=no applied)" to "wikipedia:Cymatics"
