Obvious punctuation error, was only at this title for about an hour so we don't need to worry about preserving links from outside of wikipedia.

The phrase as worded isn't exclusive to data centers. This phrase could also refer to designing ventilation and air duct systems in buildings in general.

Retarget to
Airflow and tag as {{r from related topic}}. Article explicitly refers to "managing airflow" (along synonymous terms like "regulates" and "control"). If someone feels this isn't enough of a mention, it would be easy to incorporate this exact phrase into the article without affecting the meaning. With its sections on "Control" and "Uses", if more content on this topic were added to Wikipedia that article would be the logical place to put said content. –

Comment: Looks like the bottom five targeted the first redirect as it
was an actual list at the time. The next edit turned the list into a redirect for the reason, Wikipedia is not a review site or something for people in-the-know; this section is heavily outdated and there are floods of BD players on the market now anyways. Still, this might be a {{R with history}}. However, I should mention that there was a successful AfD in 2019 for
List of HD DVD devices following the successful 2018 AfD for
List of HD DVD releases. As for redirects 2-6, the most usage any of them has had is "List of bluray players" with just 313 views in almost eight years. (Currently leaning towards keeping the first and towards deleting the rest.) --

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: There's unanimous agreement to delete redirects #2-#6, but not yet a clear consensus for #1. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, signed, Rosguilltalk19:18, 27 March 2023 (UTC)reply
Delete all, treating the first one as a soft delete allowing a REFUND to restore the blanked article. It seems there wasn't any actual merge so there is no reason to keep the history.

This redirect page makes no sense. Volvo F4 was a series of lorries 1975-86. Volvo S40 was a series of cars 1995-2012. There is no resemblance whatsoever.

The result of the discussion was consensus to rewrite as substitute only wrapper. I do not personally know how to actually carry out this change, and thus leave it to
Frietjes or other interested editors to implement. signed, Rosguilltalk03:38, 4 April 2023 (UTC)reply
Comment – There seems to be precedent to include these redirects on citation-related templates, see {{Non-English citation templates}}, in order to assist the content translators. In that case, it seems useful to have a single template handle the translation of the argument names as to not have to look up their exact form after translation and whatnot. However, I don't see the discussed redirect being as useful since only the alt text is a named argument in this case, and it doesn't exist in the German Wikipedia.

rewrite per Frietjes. On German Wiki Vorlage:Großes Bild redirects to Vorlage:Panorama which is the equivalent of Template:Wide image. So, yes, it would makes sense for this one to be substituted by the latter. That would help editors importing the template by saving time.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Unless someone is willing to write a draft of the "rewrite" vote somewhere, as far as I'm concerned, those votes may "no consensus" this discussion. There cannot be an expectation that RFD closers know how to write templates. Relisting to allow more time for a potential resolution for the "rewrite" votes.

Delete, there are several variations mentioned at
Aryan but no Aryaee or āryāī. The Persian version is mentioned as ariya. However, if there is a reliable source, this can be kept regardless of a mention. Jay 💬14:24, 12 March 2023 (UTC)reply
The ariya mentioned there is Old Persian, whereas āryāī is Modern Persian. Regardless, I'm not sure myself if retargeting to that article is a good idea. –

Arguably there is a linguistic affinity to justify a foreign-language redirect, but then again I'm not convinced that affinity extends to modern Farsi.
Searching "Aryaee" on Google, Google Books, and Google Scholar most results don't appear to be related to Zoroastrianism. More often than not it appears as the transcription of someone's name. Searching on Wikipedia produces similar results, that is, mentions of names. (eg.
Barbad Award,
Final Exam (2017 film)) None of the names I found pertain to people who presently have articles.
I lean towards delete to allow uninhibited searching, but my second preference would be retarget to
Aryan rather than to retain the current target. The current target is more likely to
suprise readers than to help them, judging by search results. –

Outline of heresy in the Catholic Church

KeepOutline of heresy in the Catholic Church and delete the other two, as they no longer serve a purpose. Might also be worth including the draft-stage redirects in this discussion (I think they can also be safely deleted now too).
Heresy in the Catholic Church is a prose article not an outline. (
Wikipedia:Outlines § What an outline is not) Redirecting from a format with a particular function to an article that doesn't have that function seems to me to be misleading and unhelpful. In this case "closest" to what the reader wants isn't good enough; that same rationale could be used to justify treating every prose article as an "outline" of its topic. It disrupts an intentional pattern and undermines reader expectations regarding what "outline of..." articles are and how they should be structured and used. Neither target is ideal, but a list article is closer in function than a prose article.
Additionally, the reason for keeping these is to preserve the history, but retargetting would break the connection between the history and the relevant destination. While a template could be placed on the talk page to note the connection, I don't think the case for retargetting is strong enough to break the direct connection. –

Delete I'm not convinced either proposed target is suitable - the search term "outline of" means one is clearly looking for an outline, not some other type of article, and thus a redirect to something else is more confusing that helpful.

@
Pppery: To clarify, does your delete also apply to the redirect with substantial history or only to the two without said history? Or do you feel the history doesn't warrant preserving in this case? –

Counting the variation with a capital F for film, this is the third time this page has been re-created by a user. Based on the missing space between the title and the disambiguator, it's an improperly formatted title and unlikely search term.

Retarget to
Instant. Presumeably that was the intended target rather than a medieval measure of time. This would be helpful for someone looking for the temporal equivalent of a "location" in space (or "
point in space"), so a
point in time. (That latter phrase was a redirect to
Time, but I've since retargetted it to
Instant - my move edit summary has my rationale.) I don't agree that this is likely to refer to
Time zone, unless someone can demonstrate that it has been used that way in some sources.
Spacetime seems like a stretch. –

An unhelpful redirect as it stands, redirecting to a technical unit that bears no relation to this phrase. It has no coverage on Wikipedia or Wiktionary – thus delete. J947 † edits05:53, 27 March 2023 (UTC)reply
Delete -
Timeliness and
Timely redirects to
Punctuality, but that doesn't work for this. There are number of uses of this phrase on Wikipedia, but none of those make good targets either; they are articles for biographies, songs, films, etc. not the general idea and I don't think any of those uses refer to punctuality. (As an aside, perhaps an RfD for
Timeliness and
Timely is warranted? I was surprised that they redirected to
punctuality. They aren't always the same thing. I was expecting something like Kairos, but more general rather than specifically Greek.) –
