Usage
- This redirect category (rcat) template populates Category:Redirects to initialisms. Add this rcat to a redirect page, not a talk page, in the following manner:
#REDIRECT ]
{{Rcat shell|
{{R to initialism}}
}}
- 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 ]
{{R to initialism}}
- This is in accord with instructions found at Wikipedia:REDCAT.
- Use this rcat to tag all mainspace redirects to initialisms of words from their expanded forms. Please do not use this template for redirects to acronyms. Use {{R to acronym}} instead. Initialisms are spoken letter by letter, while acronyms are spoken as words:
- If a redirect to an initialism is not in mainspace, then tag it with {{R from long name}} rather than this rcat.

Printworthiness
 | 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 offline version of Wikipedia. |
- In main-article namespace, many redirects from expanded forms to their initialisms are considered printworthy; however, there are many others that are thought to be 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 to initialism}}
{{R printworthy}}
}}
{{Redirect category shell|
{{R to initialism}}
{{R unprintworthy}}
}}
