I am not sure what is 'Cogido' and why is it redirected to Taken.. Anshuk (talk) 20:47, 11 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - Cogido is the Spanish for "taken" - the past participle of the verb coger, to take (among other meanings). But Wikipedia is not a dictionary, still less a Spanish dictionary. JohnCD (talk) 20:56, 11 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - foreign language redirects to the page in English are actually wanted per my reading of WP:REDIRECT. — LinguistAtLarge • Talk 05:29, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Wikipedia:REDIRECT#Alternative_names_and_languages has a section about other languages that gives examples for proper nouns or common phrases:
The Abduction from the Seraglio redirects to Die Entführung aus dem Serail
As far as I can tell, a single word does not fit that guideline and does indeed fail Wikipedia is not a dictionary as JohnCD stated. - Mgm|(talk) 10:54, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Brown seaweed redirects to Wakame
Argumentum ad ignorantiam redirects to argument from ignorance
