– Intake is a word with a broad range of meanings, and I don't think that the current article at intake (opening on a car or aircraft body) satisfies WP:PRIMARYTOPIC criteria. Actually, google:Intake produces a mixed bag of links, and I don't think there is primary topic for "intake", thus it should be a disambiguation page. No such user (talk) 13:27, 2 March 2017 (UTC) Now, I don't feel strongly about the second part of the move, i.e. proposed target for the current article, but "air intake" (while still somewhat ambiguous itself) already redirects there, and we probably lack a better name for this rather broad concept. It is at least consistent with spinoff articles such as Cold air intake or Ram-air intake. No such user (talk) 13:27, 2 March 2017 (UTC) Relisted. Jenks24 (talk) 17:36, 10 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Intake (disambiguation) → Intake
 * Intake → Air intake


 * Oppose. I have cleaned up the dab page, and no other article (they're mostly places) comes close to being the primary topic. An intake is an encyclopedic subject; any other meaning of the term is a WP:DICDEF. Well over a hundred articles link to intake, and only about ten use air intake instead. Also, for the ease of making links in the future, let's keep the two pages as they are. — Gorthian (talk) 19:27, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
 * A vast majority of those hundred links come from template Automotive engine – however, there is no simple way to count them separately short of editing the template to point to a redirect (which is doable but I don't fancy violating WP:BRINT just to prove a point); in any case, sorting those links out is not a major issue, and I volunteer to do that should this RM succeed. FWIW, the relevant pageviews can be seen |Air_intake|Intake_(disambiguation) here – the Intake article has ~100 pageviews daily, while Intake (disambiguation) is at ~2.

 * Oppose per WP:NOTDICT. The places listed on the DAB page are minor.  —  AjaxSmack   01:02, 30 March 2017 (UTC)
