Not really a valid source?
The article says, "this school is known for its museum of coloring agents (Musée des Colorants), which has about 2700 samples, mainly from the second part of the nineteenth century." I supplied as a source the web page of the museum, which provides (in French) the above information and considerably more. However, someone at 24.118.114.210 removed it, commenting, "(not really a valid source)". Do we have opposing conceptions about how the term "source" should be defined? Does that person understand the French language, so as to form a competent judgment about whether it qualifies as a source? Should I be obliged to provide a translation of more of the page in question, so that all English-readers can judge? Is the idea that only on-line news services and on-line versions of print and broadcast media qualify as sources? —67-21-48-122 19:30, 24 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I think they met that non english sources cannot be used on Wikinews (english) because most of us are not able to read them. So as far as I know, we need to use english sources. Jason Safoutin 19:32, 24 March 2006 (UTC)
 * We can not really use non English sources as primary sources. However they are perfectly acceptable as secondary sources for a fact or if a translation (or a link to a translation)  is provided on the talk page --Cspurrier 20:16, 24 March 2006 (UTC)
