Feedback highly welcome! Please suggest more categories on the talk page if you have ideas.
This is just a draft list of possible redirect classifications for the Redirect cleanup project, based on WP:TMR, the notes on project's talk page and personal observations on the list of redirects. These ideally would be converted to a set of templates to put on redirect pages to keep track of them. Feel free to suggest stuff on the talk page if you see this.
This table is not sorted in any way - it is currently a work in progress.
| Template name | Use and reasons | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| R from version number | Slight naming differences Grouped version history |
1.0 → 1.0.0 0.24 → Version history/Classic |
| R from achievement/advancement | Achievements and advancement names | 'Tis but a scratch → Achievements Cover Me With Diamonds → Advancements |
| R from alternative person name | Nicknames and alternate names of people | Dinnerbone → Nathan Adams |
| R from plural | Plurals used to help with linking and searches. | Wolves → Wolf |
| R from historical name | Renamed content | Workbench → Crafting Table |
| R from alternative case | Uppercase to lowercase and other way, to help with linking. | Grass block → Grass Block |
| R from alternative punctuation | For pages with different punctuation than the target. | Jack o Lantern → Jack o'Lantern |
| R from British English | Pages with alternative names in different English variants. Obviously if we have Australian names then a second category for those. These names should ideally be noted on the pages too... | Armour → Armor |
| R to grouped page | For things described on a single page with multiple similiar items. | Golden Sword → Sword |
| R from removed/unused content | For removed and unused content, which is probably notable enough to separate. Subcat of grouped pages. | Void fog → Java Edition removed features |
| R from specific banner | For banners because we have an absolute ton of these. Do we need them? Subcat of grouped pages. | Gray Per Bend Inverted Banner → Banner |
| R from colored page | For colored things because we have a lot of those too. Subcat of grouped pages. | Blue Wool → Wool |
| R to mod/server page | For pages that redirect to Mods or Custom servers subpages. | Forge → Mods/Forge |
