- From an album: This is a redirect from an album or EP to a related topic such as the recording artist or a list of albums.
 | This template is used on approximately 16,000 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.
Preview message: Transclusion count updated automatically (see documentation). |

Usage
[edit]- This redirect category (rcat) template populates Category:Redirects from albums. This rcat also formats the title of the album in italics on the redirect page. See below for those rare instances when this function of the rcat must be subdued.
- Add this rcat to a redirect (not a talk-page redirect) in the following manner:
#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]
{{Rcat shell|
{{R from album}}
}}
- 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 album}}
- This is in accord with instructions found at Wikipedia:REDCAT.
- Use this rcat template on any redirect from the title of an album or EP to a related article.
- Occasionally, an album title might require the use of {{DISPLAYTITLE}} or {{Italic title}} with its
|string=parameter to format the title of the redirect. In those cases the default italic title will interfere with that format and must be subdued. This may be done in the following manner:
{{Rcat shell|
{{R from album|noitalic}}
}}
- or if used individually:
{{R from album|noitalic}}
- That will subdue this rcat's default italic title so there will be no conflict with any other title formatting. An example is:
- iTunes Festival: London 07 – Imogen Heap: An Evening with I Megaphone
- (Italics are subdued in the R from album rcat so
{{Italic title|string=Imogen Heap: An Evening with I Megaphone}}will work correctly to italicize only the EP title.)

Printworthiness
[edit] | Please do not alter the printworthy settings of any rcat without first notifying the Version 1.0 Editorial Team, who are responsible for any and all materials, including redirects, that go into a printed version of Wikipedia. |
- In main-article namespace, many album redirects are considered printworthy; however, there are many others that are unprintworthy, so there is no default sort for printworthiness.
- In 2003, efforts were begun to support the Wikimedia Foundation's goal of increasing access and availability of Wikipedia articles in printed versions. Some rcats automatically populate either Category:Printworthy redirects or Category:Unprintworthy redirects by default. Others, like this rcat, do not, and that means it is up to editors to choose which of those categories, Printworthy or Unprintworthy, is appropriate and should be populated. The rcats that are used separately to populate those categories are:
{{R printworthy}}and{{R unprintworthy}}
- Please click on each one for more details and guidance.
- Template {{Redirect category shell}} will accept these and any other rcats:
{{Redirect category shell|
{{R from album}}
{{R printworthy}}
}}
{{Redirect category shell|
{{R from album}}
{{R unprintworthy}}
}}
