Wikibooks:Shortcuts

From Wikibooks, open books for an open world

Shortcuts are available for quick access to a page. For example, if the shortcut for Wikibooks:Requests for deletion is "WB:RFD", you can access the page by typing "WB:RFD" in the search box from any page and pressing "Go" (or enter on your keyboard). The URL http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/WB:RFD also works.

About shortcuts

We have shortcuts for the following pages:

  1. Shortcuts to pages in the Wikibooks namespace. These shortcuts always start with "WB:".
  2. Shortcuts to Wikijunior pages. These shortcuts always start with "WJ:".
  3. Shortcuts to pages in the Cookbook namespace. These shortcuts always start with "COOK:".
  4. Shortcuts to subject pages. These shortcuts always start with "SUB:".
  5. Shortcuts to categories. These shortcuts always start with "CAT:". Be careful about using category redirects. They work as expected as links, but not if you try to use them as a way to categorize pages.
