== Summary == | |||
* This template is for creating [[Wikipedia:Soft redirect|soft redirects]], that is to say, short pages inviting readers to visit another page on a different [[meta:Wikimedia projects|Wikimedia project]]. This cannot be performed with a classical redirect due to technical restrictions. | |||
* This template is also used to redirect an entry to a [[Help:Special page|special page]], in which case hard redirects have been disabled. | |||
* Occasionally, it is used to effectively disable a redirect that has been deprecated, e.g. [[WP:DIVA]], in which case {{tl|Historical}} is usually also used, above the soft redirect template. | |||
* For redirecting [[WP:CAT|categories]], use {{Tlx|Category redirect}} instead. | |||
* For all other redirects within the English Wikipedia, please continue to use <strong><code><nowiki>#REDIRECT [[Other article]]</nowiki></code></strong>. | |||
* Per [[WP:SOFTSIS]], the plain {{tl|soft redirect}} template should {{plain link|1=https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AWhatLinksHere&target=Template%3ASoft+redirect&namespace=0|2=not be used in the mainspace}}. Instead, use one of the [[Wikipedia:Wikimedia sister projects#Specialized soft redirect templates|specialized soft redirect templates]]. | |||
This template places tagged pages in [[:Category:Wikipedia soft redirects]] or [[:Category:User soft redirects]]. | |||

<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>Soft redirect|''target''|''label''}}</code> | |||
'''Example''' | |||
