@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)
