- From the plural form: This is a redirect from a plural noun to its singular form.
- This redirect link is used for convenience; it is often preferable to add the plural directly after the link (for example,
[[link]]s). However, do not replace these redirected links with a simpler link unless the page is updated for another reason (see WP:NOTBROKEN).
- Use this rcat to tag only mainspace redirects; when plural forms are found in other namespaces, use {{R from modification}} instead.
- From a more specific name: This is a redirect from a title that is a more specific name to a less specific, more general one.
- It may be a more specialized term, include extraneous identifiers, or simply be worded more narrowly. It leads to the title in accordance with the naming conventions for common names and can help writing and searches. It is not necessary to replace these redirected links with a piped link.
