| This page is a redirect. The following categories are used to track and monitor this redirect:
- From an alternative name: This is a redirect from a title that is another name or identity such as an alter ego, a nickname, or a synonym of the target, or of a name associated with the target.
- This redirect leads to the title in accordance with the naming conventions for common names to aid searches and writing. It is not necessary to replace these redirected links with a piped link.
- If this redirect is an incorrect name for the target, then {{R from incorrect name}} should be used instead.
- From an acronym: This is a redirect from an acronym to a related topic, such as the expansion of the acronym.
- Remember that an acronym is a special type of initialism that can be spoken as a word, such as "NATO" or "radar" or "ANOVA".
- Use {{R from initialism}} for abbreviations that have letters that are pronounced separately, such as "OAU" or "USSR" or "DoD".
- From an initialism: This is a redirect from an initialism to a related topic, such as the expansion of the initialism.

- use {{R from short name}} for the initials of a person's name or for any other length reduction that is not typically classed as an abbreviation.
