Can we reduce the number of RfDs transcluded on this page?[edit]

This page already gets very large and is very difficult to scroll and navigate, especially on lower end devices like phones. I think we should maybe take the approach that is done at AfD and only list all of the nominations on subpages. We can have a bot update the counters for the number of open RfDs on a given day. I did some stuff in user space and found that we could reduce the post expand include size from about 1,000,000 to just above 100,000 (about ten times) if we just linked to each RfD nomination rather than transcluding them.

Also see Wikipedia talk:Redirects for discussion/Archive 16#RfD is getting too long for listing in a single page, needs break-up like AfD. Jay 💬 17:57, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Subpages make it much harder to navigate and to track changes to discussions. If we got rid of the missing-space RDAB redirects (see WT:CSD#Improper disambiguation redirects) then the volume of nominations would be much more manageable. Thryduulf (talk) 12:46, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose, for the record. The following explain my stance:

...In other words, a lot of work has already been put into RfD's current setup, splitting it up into nomination subpages has been rejected in the past, the current situation is temporary, it was a lot worse when all nomination headers were listed in the table of contents, and ... dang, I just realized all that work to improve RfD's structure happened in 2017. How time flies. Steel1943 (talk) 21:50, 8 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

...A temporary solution is indeed one of the more permanent types of solution. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 14:32, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I meant "temporary" in the sense of the amount of nominations currently at RFD, not in regards to the solution. Steel1943 (talk) 13:48, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough, I must've misread. Sorry. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 17:26, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
