| - Shortcuts are also extremely useful in linking to particular sections of help and policy pages, as can be seen at Tardis:Manual of Style. Their nomenclature is pretty straightforward: T:SHORTCUT IN ALL CAPS Thus, the shortcut for Tardis:blocking policy is T:BLOCK, the shortcut for Tardis:vandalism policy is T:VAN, and so on. The choice of shortcut is somewhat arbitrary, but the term should be as short as possible, without losing a clear sense of what the article or section is about. Names should also be chosen with other, similar pages in mind. For instance T:USER would probably not be a good shortcut because there are three different policies that apply to users.

| - Shortcuts are also extremely useful in linking to particular sections of help and policy pages, as can be seen at Tardis:Manual of Style. Their nomenclature is pretty straightforward: T:SHORTCUT IN ALL CAPS Thus, the shortcut for Tardis:blocking policy is T:BLOCK, the shortcut for Tardis:vandalism policy is T:VAN, and so on. The choice of shortcut is somewhat arbitrary, but the term should be as short as possible, without losing a clear sense of what the article or section is about. Names should also be chosen with other, similar pages in mind. For instance T:USER would probably not be a good shortcut because there are three different policies that apply to users. All shortcuts — which is to say all the redirect pages — should be placed in for easy maintenance. Here is a temporary list of current shortcuts. The system is still being installed as of 07:17, October 13, 2011 (UTC). When the majority of shortcuts have been posted, this list will be better organised. It now serves mostly as a progress marker to help in the installation process. Note that this list deliberately strips the pre-pending T: from all these shortcuts. This makes it easier to find prefixes. However all prefixes begin with T:. This, and the fact that every prefix is in ALL CAPS, will virtually eliminate the possibility of accidentally linking somewhere else by mistake.
