  • Oppose for now, pending some sort of rationale or evidence of usage. Knepflerle (talk) 13:54, 25 June 2010 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose If the proposer cannot be bothered to give a reason for the move, I can see no reason why we should support the proposal. Skinsmoke (talk) 04:16, 26 June 2010 (UTC)Reply
    • See the DRAE link. It is sambenito in Spanish. --Error (talk) 21:13, 28 June 2010 (UTC)Reply
  • Comment But we are interested in what the name is in English. No evidence or argument is given to justify a change. Skinsmoke (talk) 14:45, 30 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

repolto? edit

What Spanish word is that? I wasn't able to find "fuego repolto" on Spanish-language sites. However History of the Holy Catholic Inquisition (1831) has it. Is this a 180 year old typo for "revolto"?--88.73.11.62 (talk) 13:43, 17 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Richard Harris Barham in his book The Ingoldsby Legends, in the Auto-da-fe section is completely backward than the description listed on this page. Although The Ingoldsby Legends is merely a humorous book, Barham was considered a great scholar on this subject. Somebody might want to check this out. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MarcMoss77 (talkcontribs) 00:37, 15 January 2014 (UTC)Reply


Looking up translations(there could be issues with usage) "repolto" doesnt return any English words and isnt recognized as Spanish or Portuguese. However, "revolto" comes back as Portuguese(Brazil) translating to "revolt". I tried similar meaning words and nothing close to "repolto" came up. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Xcerptshow (talkcontribs) 09:30, 18 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
