Missing Rcat?

I found "R from incorrect hyphenation" by just giving it a try. It's not listed in the functional index or in the full list. It doesn't have any documentation, so maybe that's why? — TARDIS builder^✉ ★ 13:26, 16 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Lots of templates don't have (sufficient) documentation. I see you no reason why this Rcat shouldn't be on there. Feel free to add it, right before {{R from misspelling}}. Cheers, Manifestation (talk) 14:13, 16 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Done – also, I assume you meant that it's supposed to be in alphabetical order in that section. — TARDIS builder^✉ ★ 05:04, 17 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

r from rfc/afd

What's the best template to use when a page is redirected due to the outcome of an rfc or afd? Would it make sense to create a template specifically for those cases? Rgrds. --BX (talk) 03:04, 14 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If AfD results in a merge, {{R from merge}} would make sense. If AfD results in a redirect, {{R from subtopic}}, {{R to subtopic}}, or {{R to related topic}} probably apply. I imagine some kind of {{R from consensus}} could be useful with parameters like |AfD, |RfC, and/or |discussion=[Talk page location], but it might require people to fill out a bit more info than most other Rcats. -2pou (talk) 04:04, 14 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

{{R from consensus}} with parameters might be a good idea. I figure whoever would be closing any rfc/afd/etc probably would be experienced enough to fill in the blanks. Rgrds. --BX (talk) 04:15, 14 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
