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" | "Mandra" to "Mandras" | "Paliah" to "Pailiah"
Category: Nominal redirects
Use when the term is an alternate name for some other page.
Examples: "Adolin" to "Adolin Kholin" | "Swims Upstream" to Swims Against the Current in a Stream Reflecting the Sun"
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"
