Shortcuts
This is a directory of abbreviated redirects and the pages they lead to (mainly in the
Wikipedia namespace ). For a list of community related shortcuts such as for
WikiProjects and
Portals see
WP:WPR and
WP:PORTCUT , respectively. For a list of shortcuts to
Wikipedia talk pages see
WP:WTSHORTCUTS . For technical details see
WP:SHORT .
For other useful directories see the navigation bar above .
How to create a shortcut
Shortcuts exist as
redirects pointing from the title of the shortcut (for example,
Wikipedia:START ) to its target (in this case,
Portal:Contents ). Notice that project shortcuts are usually listed with the prefix "WP" and not "Wikipedia"; this is because when "WP" or "Wp" appears before a
colon in a page name, Wikipedia automatically expands it to "Wikipedia". Therefore, there is no need to create shortcuts literally starting with "WP:" as opposed to "Wikipedia:". Prefixes similar to "WP" can be found at
Wikipedia:Shortcut#List of prefixes .
Shortcut redirects should be tagged with
Template:R from shortcut (
talk
links
history ) so they will auto-categorize in
Category:Redirects from shortcut .
Example : #redirect [[Pagename]] {{R from shortcut}}
Portal shortcuts
