Tagged but not listed, Ladino again. Renard Migrant (talk) 13:26, 8 October 2014 (UTC)

There's this, this, and this. My guess is that it's an issue of different orthographies (Ladino has scads of them), though I can't seem to find what the more common spelling is. Chuck Entz (talk) 01:51, 9 October 2014 (UTC)

Ladino. Attested per WT:ATTEST? --Dan Polansky (talk) 17:14, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

One mention in snippet view here. It seems to be a word list with definitions and some etymological information. As far as I can tell, the Turkish seems to be a compound of baş (“head”) + üstüne (“above or on top of”), so the Spanish gloss of encima de la cabeza fits the literal meaning of the Turkish (I suspect the Turkish is equivalent as an expression to something like "yes sir!" or "you're the boss!", but I don't speak Turkish). This shows the word in use, but the semantics require some stretching to make it work- close enough to be plausible, though. Since Ladino is no doubt an LDL, the one mention should be sufficient if we accept it. As I said earlier, Ladino is tricky to attest, because the orthography is far from standardized, and because there's geographical variation, too. Chuck Entz (talk) 23:30, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

Should it be a language with limited documentation? Renard Migrant (talk) 18:59, 5 January 2015 (UTC)

It is, since it's not on this list. —Μετάknowledge^{discuss/deeds} 00:45, 6 January 2015 (UTC)

Based on the citation above and another I've just added (which explains the meaning of the term more clearly), and the glossary which defines the alt form bashustoné, this passes, though I have revised the def. - -sche (discuss) 09:29, 18 July 2015 (UTC)
