Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of radiata animal orders
I agree with the rationale eloquently put forward by the OP and of {{u|Spinningspark}}. Artificially forcing modern taxa into this list is definitely , especially as there were clear shifting sands of the meaning of the group, and no references have been put forward to support it. The summary at Radiata seems to suffice, and I agree there's little value in turning this into a redirect. I would not expect to find a "List of Vermes animal orders", but would expect to find a reasonable explanation of what both now-abandoned groupings meant to naturalists at the time, and over the centuries that followed
