Redirect to:

List of Back to the Future characters#Einstein

This page is a redirect. The following categories are used to track and monitor this redirect:

To a section: This is a redirect from a topic that does not have its own page to a section of a page on the subject. For redirects to embedded anchors on a page, use {{R to anchor}} instead.

From a fictional character: This is a redirect from a fictional character to a related fictional work or list of characters. The destination may be an article about a related fictional work that mentions this character, a standalone list of characters, or a subsection of an article or list.
- For redirects named for fictional places use {{R from fictional location}}, and for those named for fictional elements (objects or concepts), use {{R from fictional element}}.

From an avoided double redirect: This is a redirect from an alternative title or related topic of Einstein (Back to the Future), another redirect to the same title. Because double redirects are disallowed, both pages currently point to List of Back to the Future characters#Einstein.
- If Einstein (Back to the Future) is retargeted or is expanded into a separate article, template, or other project page, this redirect will be recategorized to be updated.

When appropriate, protection levels are automatically sensed, described and categorized.
