A template can be redirected to another template in the same way, e.g. by entering the following markup at the top of a template T2: | |||
<nowiki>#REDIRECT [[Template:T1]]</nowiki> | |||
This allows the template name T2 to be used instead of the actual template name T1. | |||
Redirects for templates can cause confusion and may make updating template calls more complicated. For example, if calls to T1 are to be changed to some new template TN1, articles must be searched for <nowiki>{{T1}}</nowiki> and a separate such must be made for each of its its aliases (including T2 in this example). | |||
