Shortcuts are redirects that quickly link to important MarioWiki policies and help pages. They are, as suggested, short and easy to type in the search box. Each one starts with MW: and then an acronym related to the policy or help page. For example, the deletion policy has the shortcuts MW:DEL, MW:DELETE, and MW:DP (Deletion Policy).

Shortcuts for a page should be listed via this template. Up to three shortcuts can be listed, and they are neatly displayed next to the page name at the top. Try to put this template at the bottom of the page, even after the categories.

When creating a shortcut, each should be categorized like so:

[[Category:Shortcuts|Related text]]

Where related text is whatever is after the MW: in the shortcut name.
