Can we reduce the number of RfDs transcluded on this page?
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.

 * 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) then the volume of nominations would be much more manageable. Thryduulf (talk) 12:46, 2 February 2024 (UTC)
 * 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)
 * ...A temporary solution is indeed one of the more permanent types of solution. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 14:32, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
 * 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)
 * Fair enough, I must've misread. Sorry. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 17:26, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
 * I agree with this. On slower connections this page takes ages to load, and I imagine it's very slow when scrolling on lower-end devices. I don't think we should just keep saying it's been discussed before and ignore the problem.  C F A  💬  21:56, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
 * What is your network speed? Jay  💬 05:43, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
 * It loads fine when I'm at home on 80+ mb/s. But when I'm editing in public on a hotspot this page takes anywhere from 5 to 10+ seconds to load which is very long compared to AfD, for example.  C F A   💬  00:23, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
 * I will also note that, like a growing number of editors, I use Convenient Discussions, which grinds to a halt on the RfD main page due to the sheer volume of comments it has to format. I do recognize that other editors might not care about the quirks of a script that is not that widely used, but it's something to consider. This issue arises on very few other large talk pages like ANI. — TechnoSquirrel69 ( sigh ) 00:29, 28 May 2024 (UTC)


 * I'm all in favour of any changes that enhance performance, user experience and make it more usable on mobile devices. However, as Thryduulf mentioned, an AfD-style process would make it harder to access individual discussions, and reduce participation. How about have the main RfD page have only the current + previous day's entries (since different parts of the world are always on two different dates), with the backlog dates collapsed, assuming they get loaded only when Expand is selected?
