Bowls or Boule

[edit]

Jeu de Boules redirects to Bowling. Bowling redirects to Boulingrin (jeu) in the French Wikipedia. Boulingrin (jeu) redirects to Bowls which is probably correct (Boulingrin is probably an onomatopoeia of Bowling Green). Jeu de Boules in the French Wikipedia however redirects to Boules in the English Wikipedia. Boules, like Jeu de Boules, is a general description of ball games where the object is to get as close to a small ball as is possible. The principle is the same in bowling except that in bowling the balls are not round. IMHO jeu de boules should redirect to Boules. JHvW 17:19, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
