Is it normal for the text to not appear on the actual redirect? It does if you look at a diff of when the template is added. – Kerαunoςcopia◁ galaxies 19:31, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
Response to editor Vadmium: Yes, you're absolutely right. Don't know what I was thinking. Good catch - and good hunting! – Paine ( Climax!) 18:19, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
As you know, the Rcats that place redirects into the printworthy or unprintworthy cats are in place to determine which redirects are suitable for inclusion in a printed version of Wikipedia. There are two reasons that all of these song redirects are not suitable:
So it hopefully makes sense to everyone that these song redirects should all be categorized as unprintworthy. When someone thinks an individual song should be printworthy, such as "Somewhere" (song), then they need to write an article about it. – Paine ( Climax!) 17:44, 24 December 2012 (UTC)
printworthy
parameter has any legitimate use case: Couldn't there be an exception to the above logic when a song has a
section in some other article, but editorial decisions have been made not to split that section into its own article (where the concern may be length rather than notability)?FYI, a lot of redirects for songs have {{ R with possibilities}} added to them, thus placing those redirects in both Category:Unprintworthy redirects and Category:Printworthy redirects. Which should take precedence? Should "R with possibilities be removed from song redirects? Thanks. Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars Talk to me 17:06, 15 November 2021 (UTC)
This could also be from a singer to their only notable work (an album) when they don't have a page for themselves because they're not notable enough. To me, this makes the {{ R to album}} redirect ambiguous and it should be deleted, but it may be in too much use to realistically do that. Does anyone have the numbers (or any thoughts?)

Below "** For redirects of cover songs to the article about the original song, use {{tl|R from cover song}} instead.", add "** For redirects of remixes to the article about the original song, use {{tl|R from remix}} instead." because of the new R from remix template. 134.199.113.124 ( talk) 13:46, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
