[[WP:R|Redirects]] are pages which automatically sends visitors to another page – ''redirecting'' them there – effectively allowing people to reach a single article by alternate titles for the topic, likely search terms, or content subsumed within that existing page.  Reasons to use a redirect include, but are not limited to:
{{flowlist|
* Common abbreviations  ([[DSM-IV]] redirects to [[Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders]])
* Common misspellings ([[Condoleeza Rice]] redirects to [[Condoleezza Rice]])
* Alternate spellings ([[Al-Jazeera]] redirects to [[Al Jazeera]])
* Alternate capitalizations ([[Mcdonald's]] redirects to [[McDonald's]]) (Note: when searching, the case is usually ignored. These redirects are useful when two articles share the same name but with different cases, for example the separate articles [[COinS]] and [[Coins]].)
* Alternate names ([[Linear operator]] redirects to [[Linear map]])
* Accents ([[Kurt Goedel]] and [[Kurt Godel]] redirect to [[Kurt Gödel]])}}

Note: We can only create a redirect to '''an existing page on English Wikipedia''', not non-existent pages, nor pages on another Wikimedia project or any other website.

When you click the button below, you'll be taken to an edit page with instructions on how to complete your request.

'''What happens next:''' Once your request is submitted, it will be reviewed by one or more registered editors who will determine if the redirect is appropriate. If it is, the redirect will be created.  If not, it will be declined.

'''If your suggestion is declined:''' Don't take it personally! Having a proposal declined by no means reflects poorly on you or diminishes your value to the project.  We hope that you will continue to contribute to Wikipedia.
