- From a shortcut: This is a redirect from a shortcut in any namespace to a page in any namespace except template namespace.
- Shortcuts are wikilinked on community pages, talk pages, and edit summaries, but not in mainspace articles.
- To a project page: This is a redirect from any page inside or outside of project (Wikipedia: or WP:) space to any page in the project namespace. The above category link leads to a list of redirects from inside project space. Redirects from outside project space are automatically sorted to Category:Redirects to project space.
- To a section: This is a redirect from a topic that does not have its own page to a section of a page on the subject. For redirects to embedded anchors on a page, use {{R to anchor}} instead.
