"Shortcuts" in Wikipedia are a specialized type of redirection page that can be used to get to a Wikirectory reference page more quickly.

How to use Wikirectory shortcuts

A Wikirectory shortcut can be entered into the Wikirectory search box to quickly bring you to a reference page.
For example, you can type "WR:TPA" into the search box and click the "Go" button to get to the Wikirectory reference page called The perfect article, instead of having to type "Wikirectory:The perfect article".

Shortcuts are presented in all capital letters ("All-Caps"), but the search box is case-insensitive. For example, in the search box, you can type "wr:tpa" instead of "WR:TPA".

However, using the URL method typically requires that you match the capitalization of the shortcut itself.

Adding shortcut link boxes

A shortcut link box can be added to a page by placing {{Shortcut|[[WR:<x>]]}} at the top of the text while editing.
