There needs to be a definitive outcome for this page. It requires a firm keep, or a firm redirect and merge to Tanistry, or a firm delete, mandated by consensus. That ought to stop the redirect/revert battle that is currently in train. It has useful information within it. My view is that Merge and redirect is the most appropriate outcome. Your mileage may vary. Ok, it is an unusual use of AfD, but it seems to be a pragmatic way out of this issue. Fiddle  Faddle  09:19, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Tanistry There's no need for a separate article on just one term within tanistry. If the tanistry article becomes large perhaps it could be the name for a split for the Irish version but that day is nowhere near here yet. Dmcq (talk) 09:32, 7 September 2013 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Tanistry Agree with Dmcq, the term is already mentioned in the Tanistry article and there isn't much more to be said that couldn't be dealt with in the Tanistry article itself, if need be. Ririgidi (talk) 12:24, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Tanistry, and either fully protect the redirect, or block the article creator. Luke no 94  (tell Luke off here) 13:17, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Tanistry and per Dmcq. Snappy (talk) 13:25, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Merge to Tanistry (which will leave a redirect). AS I read the article, a person with this status was "royal" (which in Ireland meant a member of a chief's family), and was eligible to become the tanist (or crown prince).  Peterkingiron (talk) 18:30, 8 September 2013 (UTC)
