| This page is a redirect. The following categories are used to track and monitor this redirect:
- From birth name: This is a redirect from a person's birth name (née or né) to a more common name or a related topic.
- Use this rcat to tag mainspace redirects when the title matches the subject's name given to them at birth. If the redirect is from a personal name that differs from the birth name, then use {{R from personal name}} instead. In either case, be sure to include
{{DEFAULTSORT:(surname), (given name)}} for correct category sorting of this person's name.
- From personal name: This is a redirect from an individual's personal name to an article titled with the subject's professional stage name, pen name, or other better known moniker.
- This redirect leads to the title in accordance with the naming conventions for common names; it may help writing and aid searches. It is not necessary to replace these redirected links with a piped link.
- If this is the name of a living person, then one or more reliable sources must be included in the target article that will support the existence of this personal name, or else this redirect's talk page must be created and the reference(s) added there. This is in accord with Wikipedia's biography of living persons (BLP) policy, which applies to all Wikipedia pages, to include redirects.
- Use this rcat only on redirects that are in Wikipedia's main-article namespace, and only when the personal name differs from the subject's name when born. If the redirect title is the subject's birth name, use {{R from birth name}} instead.
- 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 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.
