Category:Redirects to plurals

The pages in this category are redirects from singular words or phrases to those rare, uncategorically correct plural forms, such as Scissorscissors. To add a redirect to this category, place {{Rcat shell|{{R to plural}}}} 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.

This is not a license to create articles against English language Wikipedia Naming conventions, but is for the rare case where the plural is uncategorically correct. This redirect link is used for convenience, usually for words that do not follow simple conventions. They lead to the title in accordance with the naming conventions for titles in the plural and can help writing. In most cases, it is preferable to add the plural directly after the link (i.e., [[link]]s), which is the subject of the sibling category Category:Redirects from plurals and its associated {{R from plural}} template.
