The following was copied from the talk page of pit cave:

Abîme

[edit]

I redirected the title Abîme here. As the British A glossary of geographical terms (1979) edited by Audrey N Clark and Laurence Dudley Stamp, says that abime is used currently in French but not internationally for a disused pothole. Or more to the point, the French disambiguation page says: Abîmes, gouffres très profonds. And fr:Gouffre interwikis here. --Bejnar (talk) 02:54, 31 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I am reverting the redirect because a) it was properly sourced from the 1984 Geographical Dictionary of Physical Geography b) "pit cave" has a wider meaning and c) the "pit cave" article doesn't mention the word "abîme" anywhere. At the very least we need a discussion before dumping it. --Bermicourt (talk) 05:24, 31 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
