From birth name: This is a redirect from a person's birth name (née or né) to a more common name or a related topic.
Use this rcat to tag mainspace redirects when the title matches the subject's name given to them at birth. If the redirect is from a personal name that differs from the birth name, then use {{R from personal name}} instead. In either case, be sure to include {{DEFAULTSORT:(surname), (given name)}} for correct category sorting of this person's name.
When appropriate, protection levels are automatically sensed, described and categorized.
Template {{Redirect category shell}} may be used to add one or more rcat templates, along with their parameters and categories, to a redirect. For more information see the documentation page below.

Template {{Rcat shell}} is an alias for the Redirect category shell template, which may be used to add as many appropriate rcats as needed, usually from one to seven, along with their parameters, to a redirect. For more information see the documentation on its template page. This rcat may also tag a redirect individually:
Use this rcat to tag all mainspace redirects from a title that is a person's name received at birth.

To ensure that the redirect is correctly sorted to its categories, be familiar with the helpful information found at Wikipedia:SORTKEY.
Please do not alter the printworthy settings of this rcat without first notifying the Version 1.0 Editorial Team, who are responsible for any and all materials, including redirects, that go into a printed version of Wikipedia.
In main-article namespace, many redirects from birth names are considered printworthy; however, there are many others that are unprintworthy, so there is no default sort for printworthiness. In 2003, efforts were begun to support the Wikimedia Foundation's goal of increasing access and availability of Wikipedia articles in printed versions. Some rcats automatically populate either Category:Printworthy redirects or Category:Unprintworthy redirects by default. Others, like this rcat, do not, and that means it is up to editors to choose which of those categories, Printworthy or Unprintworthy, is appropriate and should be populated. The rcats that are used separately to populate those categories are:
