{{Editprotect}} This template needs an Rcat. Please add the following Rcat:

{{R from template shortcut}}

When finished, the code should look just like the following:

#REDIRECT [[Template:Documentation]]{{R from template shortcut}}

[[Category:Template documentation]]
[[Category:Wikipedia formatting and function templates]]

(There should be no space between the Redirect link and the Rcat.)

Seems like I spend half my time on Wikipedia thanking you, TheDJ. And thank you for this edit, too!

Not done: it's not normal to duplicate the categories on redirects. Is there any specific reason you think you should be done here? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 11:52, 27 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@MSGJ: Template:Doc should not be part of Category:Wikipedia formatting and function templates, which is for templates like {{Bg-orange}}, {{NOTOC}}, and {{Gbmaprim}}. —⁠andrybak (talk) 11:59, 27 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, and I've removed both of those categories, which are not usually populated by redirects — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 12:47, 27 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@MSGJ: hmm, for some reason Template:Doc is now part of Category:Wikipedia fully protected pages, even though it is template-protected both for move and editing. —⁠andrybak (talk) 13:01, 27 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Well spotted. I have reported this issue at Template talk:Redirect category shell — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 13:08, 27 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
