Moving to Template:Rcat[]

 Support, after discussing on the minecraft wiki discord server which starts on this message. We should also reformat it like U:Fadyblok240/Redirect category shell without being a direct copy from Wikipedia. Also expand TP:UsefulRedirect/reasons.

 Support move as tagger; I don't think we should reformat it like Fadyblok's as that uses full templates inside the shell instead of just having one template for all; the latter is a lot more useful and less cluttered for wikis that don't need like a thousand Rcat templates. Expanding the /reasons subpage should be enough.  Nixinova T  C   21:14, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
 Support for the given reason of categorizing redirects more generally, and agree with Nixinova that it doesn't need reformatting. –Sonicwave talk 21:40, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
 Comment So should we also have a {{R}} as a redirect to {{Rcat}} as I don't think there is anything harmful with saving 3 characters? So if we are not reformatting it, and keeping the template the same, just moved while leaving a redirect behind, I just expand /reasons so that way for pages that are both plural and lowercase (like Zombified piglins) where the template could be {{R|plural|case}} or {{R|plural and case}}?

{{R|plural|case}} is the easiest way to do it . Nixinova T  C   01:04, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
For some reason, I thought the template did not support {{R|plural|case}} but after testing, it actually did (I am still a beginner in making templates). I personally think it looks better to have two line breaks in between "This page is a redirect from a plural...discuss." and "This page is a redirect from an alternate...when searching.", rather than one line break in between them, as shown in Baked potatoes rather than Zombified piglins.

 Comment So can we move this template now, leaving a redirect? It seems like it is all support, and I do think it is fine the way it is, and reformatting it like Fadyblok's is not so necessary. We could expand /reasons, but I don't see anything bad with moving to {{Rcat}}. Blockofnetherite Talk Contributions 17:44, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
 Moved. Will create {{R}}. Blockofnetherite Talk Contributions 18:02, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
I would rather have {{R}} contain the redirect reasons so it is easier to be used directly and this template be named {{Rcat shell}} since the individual reasons can be considered to be rcats. Also, Rcat is so short that further abbreviation is not really necessary. Fadyblok240 (talk) 21:22, 18 December 2020 (UTC) updated 02:15, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
