Category:Protected redirects

This is an administration category. It is used for administration of the WikiDevi project and is not part of the encyclopedia. It contains pages that are not articles, or it groups articles by status rather than content. Do not include this category in content categories. This is a hidden category. It is not shown on its member pages, unless the corresponding user preference 'Show hidden categories' is set. This is a tracking category. It builds and maintains a list of pages primarily for the sake of the list itself. Pages are added to tracking categories through templates. Pages are added to this category with {{R protected}}.

This category contains redirects that have been protected. 'Protected Redirects' are constructed for the purpose of preventing vandalism or edit warring, or in cases where the page title is unsuitable for an article, but may be a plausible search term, as an alternative to deleting the page. Full protection prevents a page from being edited except by administrators.

To add a redirect to this category, add template {{R protected}} on the same line just after the target link in accordance with the instructions found at WikiDevi:REDCAT. This should be done only if the redirect is, in fact, protected - adding the category does not in itself protect the page.
