This page is a redirect. The following categories are used to track and monitor this redirect:
  • From a person(s): This is a redirect from a person or persons' name to a related article or section that describes the person(s).
    • It is a topic more specific than currently provided on the target article or a section of that article, hence this redirect is a potential article that may be suitable for expansion in accordance with Misplaced Pages's notability policy on biographies of notable people. The magic word {{DEFAULTSORT:Hartman, Brynn}} should be included below the #REDIRECT code in this page for correct category sorting of this person's name.

Please do not remove the tag that generates this text (unless the need to recreate content on this page has been demonstrated), nor delete this page.
    • This template should not be used for redirects having some edit history but no meaningful content in their previous versions, nor for redirects created as a result of a page merge (use {{R from merge}} instead), nor for redirects from a title that forms a historic part of Misplaced Pages (use {{R with old history}} instead).
