From a longer title: This is a redirect from a title that is a complete, more complete or longer version of the topic's name. It leads to the title in accordance with the naming conventions for common names and can help writing and searches. However, do not replace these redirected links with a piped link unless the page is updated for another reason.
From an old AfC draft: This is a redirect from an draft page in the Wikipedia talk namespace to the published article in mainspace. This redirect page must be in the Wikipedia talk namespace.
From a page move: This is a redirect from a page that has been moved (renamed). This page was kept as a redirect to avoid breaking links, both internal and external, that may have been made to the old page name.
From a subpage: This is a redirect from a subpage. In a page title, a subpage name appears after a forward slash (/); for example, "Wikipedia:WikiProject Cricket/Articles", which is a subpage of "Wikipedia:WikiProject Cricket", redirects to Template:CricketRecentChanges. Not all articles or other pages with "/" in their titles are subpages (e.g. CP/M).
If this redirect is in mainspace, then it will populate the Redirects with old history category bold-linked above; if in any other namespace, then Category:Redirects from subpages will be populated.
When appropriate, protection levels are automatically sensed, described and categorized.
