మూస:R from alternative language

 

---

This is a redirect from a name in one language to a name in another language.

It leads to the title in accordance with the naming conventions for titles in other languages and can help writing. However, do not replace these redirected links with a piped link unless the page is updated for another reason.

This template exists to help track useful redirects from foreign-language terms. It is not a license to create redirects for arbitrary terms in any language; generally, foreign-language redirects are considered appropriate only when there is a strong connection between the language and the topic. For example, "Wien" to "Vienna" makes sense since German is the official language of Austria, but "維也納", "ویانا", or "Виена" do not as there is no real connection between the city and Western Panjabi, Chinese, or Macedonian. See Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Redirects from foreign languages for details.

Usage

Use this Rcat template in any namespace.

• This redirect category (Rcat) template populates Category:Redirects from alternative languages. Add this Rcat to a redirect in the following manner:

#REDIRECT [[(Target page name)]] {{R from alternative language}}

• Template {{This is a redirect}} may also be used to add this and other appropriate Rcats to a redirect.
• This template takes one optional unnamed parameter, the ISO 639 code of the source language. If the language code is recognized, the redirect goes into a more specific category, e.g. Category:Redirects from French-language terms; otherwise, the redirect goes into Category:Redirects from non-English-language terms.

Example Suisse:

#REDIRECT [[Switzerland]] {{R from alternative language|fr}}

• This template takes one optional named parameter, to, the ISO 639 code of the target language. If the language code is recognized, the redirect goes into a more specific category, e.g. Category:Redirects to French-language terms; otherwise, the redirect goes into Category:Redirects to non-English-language terms.

Example The Miserable Ones:

#REDIRECT [[Les Misérables]] {{R from alternative language|to=fr}}

• These parameters can be combined. The redirect will go into two categories.

Example Annales des empereurs du japon:

#REDIRECT [[Nihon Ōdai Ichiran]] {{R from alternative language|fr|to=ja}}

• Use this Rcat on all redirects from a name in one language to a name in another language.
• When the redirect and its target differ only in use of diacritics, consider {{R from diacritics}} or {{R to diacritics}}.
