  • From an abbreviation: This is a redirect from an abbreviation to a related topic, such as the expansion of the abbreviation. Use this template for any length reduction other than the following.
    • Instead of this template:
      • use {{R from acronym}} for abbreviations that are pronounced as words, such as NATO and RADAR;
      • use {{R from initialism}} for those abbreviations that are pronounced as letters, such as CIA and HIV;
      • use {{R from short name}} for the initials of a person's name or for any other length reduction that is not typically classed as an abbreviation.
  • From a duplicated article: This is a redirect from a page on the same or very similar subject matter that was kept as a redirect to preserve this page's edit history after the content was merged.
    • Please do not delete this redirect nor remove this tag unless the need to recreate this article is demonstrated.
When appropriate, protection levels are automatically sensed, described and categorized.
