A '''shortcut''' in the '''[[Wikipedia:Project namespace|Wikipedia namespace]]''' is a specialized type of [[Help:Redirect|redirect]] page, that can be used to quickly and directly access a Wikipedia project reference page. Lists of available Wikipedia shortcuts can be found at:
* [[WP:WP]] = [[Wikipedia:List of shortcuts]]
* [[WP:WPR]] = [[Wikipedia:List of shortcuts/Project shortcuts]]

A Wikipedia shortcut can be entered into the [[search box]] to quickly bring you to a project page. For example, you can type '''WP:R''' into the search box and then click the '''Go''' [[button (computing)|button]], to get to the '''Wikipedia:Redirect''' project page, instead of having to type in the complete phrase.
Alternatively, you can use a shortcut in the [[URL]] (web address). For example, you are currently viewing the '''Wikipedia:Shortcut''' page in English. The [[URL]] for the English-language page is: ''':{{fullurl:Wikipedia:Shortcut}}'''. You could then get from here to the '''Wikipedia:Redirect''' project page by replacing '''Wikipedia:Shortcut''' with '''WP:R''' in the [[URL]] field, followed by the '''[[Enter key]]'''.
 
Shortcuts are presented in all capital letters ([[ALL CAPS]]); however, the search box is [[case-insensitive]].
For example, in the search box, you can type '''wp:r''', instead of '''WP:R'''.; Howeverhowever, when using the URL method, it typically requires that you matchmatching the capitalization of the shortcut itself.
 
==Readability==
Shortcuts are often used on talk pages in their abbreviated form, without any [[WP:PIPE|piped links]], decreasing [[readability]] for the general reader. For example, some editors are familiar with the bulk of Wikipedia'sthe [[WP:PRJWP|projectWikipedia namespace]] shortcuts]], even recognizing what they stand for on sight; however, others are faced with pages full of incomprehensible jargon, the meaningmeanings of which notare beingnot immediately decipherable, if the reader happens to be offline.
 
While shortcuts can help with linking, it is best, when referring to a project page, to be mindful of the general reader and not use themthe shortcuts as a title, without piping thetheir linklinks. For example, the piped link: '''<nowiki>WP:SHC|shortcuts</nowiki>''', gives readers an idea of the subject of the target page, while just using the abbreviation: '''WP:SHC''', is unintelligible to those unfamiliar with the term.
<!-- (Removed this proposal, because it has failed. See page) "A proposed method to increase readability is [[Wikipedia:full meta links|using templates producing full meta links]]. Individually a registered user can use [[WP:POPUPS|navigation popups]], a JavaScript tool." -->
 
==Link boxes==

Small link boxes, listing the names of the page's shortcuts, appear at the top of many pages, especially those on policypolicies and guidelines. A shortcut link box can be added to a page, by placing the template: '''{{Tlx|shortcut|WP:&lt;x&gt;}}''' at the top of the page's text, while editing.
 
The point of these templatestemplate boxes is not to list every single redirect for any given page (indeed, that's what [[Special:Whatlinkshere]] is for); instead, they generally should list only one or two common and easily-remembered redirects.
 
[[Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines|GuidelinesGuideline]] pages with shortcuts pointing to them typically use: '''{{Tlx|guideline|WP:&lt;x&gt;}}''' insteador ofthe '''{{Tlxtl|shortcutsubcat guideline}}.''' Thetemplate, boxsuch atas the top ofon this page, isinstead suchof athe shortcut template: '''{{tlfTlx|guidelineshortcut}} box'''. Another examplefrequently used template is: '''{{Tlx|styleMoS-guideline|WP:&lt;x&gt;}},'''. see also [[:Category:Wikipedia header templates|Wikipedia header templates]].

== How to create a shortcut ==
The abbreviations "WP:" and "wp:" for the namespace "Wikipedia:" are automatically translated by the Wikipedia servers, so they work anyway regardless of redirects. Similarly "WT:" and "wt:" are automatically translated to the namespace "Wikipedia talk:". Thus [[WP:TS]] = [[Wikipedia:Template standardisation]].
