This is not a valid disambiguation page. "Interstitial" is an adjective with many applications, and WP:Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Every entry on this list is a WP:Partial title match. Disambiguation pages are not lists of articles whose titles contain a particular word, and an (incomplete) list is not better than Search. Delete also all incoming orphan redirects: Intersitials, Interstital, Interstitials, Interstitially, Interstition, Interstitions, Interstitial (disambiguation).

Keep. While it is true that this word has many uses, this article is not a definition. It merely contains one. It simply lists the meanings in case someone searches for "interstitial". Mast303 (talk) 18:23, 23 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
... which is not the purpose of a disambiguation page (WP:DABNOINCLUDE). Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 21:07, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete per WP:PTM, which the nomination correctly cites. Hatman31 (he/him · talk · contribs) 21:18, 2 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
