@MSJapan: "Frater" is latin for brother. Why would you wish to have redirect to an article about dining rooms? Chicbyaccident (talk) 06:22, 16 October 2015 (UTC)
- Because the word is not mentioned on the page to which it was redirected, and "frater" is also a historical usage for the refectory of a monastery (and in fact the definition that Google returns). If there are distinct different usages, a redirect to one over the other needs more work done for clarification. Frater should likely become a disambiguation page to cover all meanings as opposed to a redirect addressing only one. MSJapan (talk) 23:34, 16 October 2015 (UTC)
- wiktionary:frater gives: Etymology,Latin, a brother. Noun: frater (plural fraters) 1. A monk. 2. A frater house. Latin noun: frāter m (genitive frātris); third declension; brother, friend, lover, sibling. (Ecclesiastical Latin) brother, brethren; member of a religious community. What is the source supporting the redirection of your choice? Chicbyaccident (talk) 20:08, 21 October 2015 (UTC)
