DRVs involving ATD and delete versus redirect
I searched for DRVs containing "ATD" (WP:ATD, WP:Deletion policy, policy). I manually filtered to those deciding between delete and redirect. This table covers the last 12 months, through April 2023.

 * A lot of this is comparing apples to oranges. For example the DRV on Blood Red Throne was challenging an out-of-process G4, when a page deleted at AFD was later created as a redirect and the deleting admin came back and (incorrectly) speedied the redirect.  The Angels-Mariners rivalry page (full disclosure, I was the AFD nom) had consensus to delete when a late proposal to redirect from a keep voter as a “compromise,” but that received pushback from the delete voters including myself. The Amy Eden AFD received no such pushback on the idea of redirecting.  Frank   Anchor  15:53, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the feedback. The Blood Red Throne DRV was a unique case, and I will consider distinguishing it in future presentations. I view the other AfDs as points along a continuum. Flatscan (talk) 04:25, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Yes, I agree the Blood Red Throne was a unique case. Some of the users were trying to challenge the redirect and if I remember correctly new sources were brought to light to allow for possible recreation.  But every DRV has to be considered based on its own xfd.  Frank   Anchor  15:55, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
