From a portmanteau: This is a redirect from a portmanteau to a related topic, such as the expansion of the portmanteau. The expanded form is given by the target of the redirect.
Use {{R from short name}}, instead, for abbreviations that are shortened names but not portmanteaus.
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:
#REDIRECT [[(target article title)]]
{{R from portmanteau}}
Use this rcat to tag only mainspace redirects from portmanteaux to their expanded forms. Please do not use this template to tag an acronym, which is a special type of initialism that is spoken as a word, such as NATO and RADAR. For those use {{R from acronym}} instead. Also, if the redirect is simply a shortened name, then use the {{R from short name}} rcat instead.
There is one unnamed parameter that may be used to specify the expanded form of the portmanteau.
This will change the wording from "The correct name is given by the target of the redirect," to "The correct name is (expanded term)."
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, some portmanteau redirects to expanded forms are considered unprintworthy; however, there are many others that are printworthy, 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:
