Editing Category: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 four 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 [[:Category:Content|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 [[:Category:Content|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 [[Coppermind:Keepers|Keepers]] about new spoiler redirects.

-:''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 <code>?&redirect=no</code>. Consult with the [[Coppermind:Keepers|Keepers]] about new interwiki redirects.
-:'''Note: Applicable [[:Category:Content|content categories]] should ''sometimes'' be manually applied to these redirect pages''', as if the target page were an actual Coppermind article.
-:''Examples: "<span class="plainlinks">[{{fullurl:Cymatics}}?&redirect=no Cymatics (redirect=no applied)]</span>" to "[[wikipedia:Cymatics]]"''
