Soft redirect to Wiktionary. It's mentioned in several articles so it is something that is likely to be looked up. Thryduulf (talk) 11:28, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm also happy with disambiguation as suggested by Cnilep below. Thryduulf (talk) 10:37, 12 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Dabify, based on article history. Until April~May 2020 a portion of the article's content was about Johnnie Cradock and Fanny Cradock, who wrote together under the pen name Bon Viveur. In May it was briefly a redirect to 1971 Bon Vivant botulism case. Way back in 2014, it was proposed for merger to Hedonism, but no discussion was started. That's at least three Wikipedia articles to disambiguate, which would coexist with the usual Wiktionary link. Cnilep (talk) 03:55, 12 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete as dict def. The Cradock articles are quite entertaining, thank you for that, but the disambig argument seems like a stretch. --Lockley (talk) 07:35, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: The discussion at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2020 July 20#Bon viveur may have some bearing on this one, and vice-versa. Cnilep (talk) 06:41, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
