Category:Redirects from less specific names
| File:Redirect arrow without text (cropped).svg | The pages in this category are redirects from less specific, more general names to more specific names, when the narrower, target article may still be useful for someone seeking the broader-scoped topic. To add a redirect to this category, place {{Rcat shell|{{R from less specific name}}}} on the second new line after #REDIRECT [[Target page name]]. Alias/shortcuts may also be used; for example: {{Rcat shell}} is a shortcut for {{Redirect category shell}} and may be used interchangeably. For more information, follow the template link. Never substitute rcat(s), nor place them on soft redirects.Also see the complete list of redirect templates and the redirect style guide. |
 | This is a maintenance category. It is used for maintenance of the Wikipedia project and is not part of the encyclopedia. It contains pages that are not articles, or it groups articles by status rather than subject. Do not include this category in content categories. This is a hidden category. It is not shown on its member pages, unless the corresponding user preference 'Show hidden categories' is set. This is a tracking category. It builds and maintains a list of pages primarily for the sake of the list itself. Pages are added to tracking categories through templates. |
Titles that appear here are sometimes good candidates for creation of new, more overarching articles and, if so, they should also be tagged with {{R with possibilities}}. In other cases they may indicate that the target article's scope (or at least name) are too narrow, an issue that should be raised on the article's talk page. Occasionally, this tag may indicate that an article should simply be renamed, if its content is not as specific as its name suggests.
Sometimes titles like these are the result of previous requested moves discussions, most commonly when WP:COMMONNAME or some other such concern has resulted in an article being at a narrower, less general term than its content might naturally suggest.
Less specific names are not necessarily shorter versions of the same name, for which see Category:Redirects from short names.
