Talk:Catalan mythology about witches
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Woo, I see conflict when this artical is discovered. (anon 20 May 2005)
- Hmm. It is pretty much a loose translation and digest of material in the Catalan Wikipedia. -- Jmabel | Talk 23:40, May 20, 2005 (UTC)
I see that someone is now asking for verification. I'm afraid I can't properly give any. I translated from an article in the Catalan Wikipedia back in the days when our verification standards were much looser. I ran it past a friend who is native Catalan and very much a scholar of Catalan culture (I've seen his personal library, it's worthy of a professor) and who said that it largely rang true. He is the one who told me that a lot of this could be found in the writings of Joan Amades. So that would be where to look if someone wants to build a citation apparatus. - Jmabel | Talk 06:54, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
It also looks like just after I translated it, Catalan-language Wikipedia Xevi, who originally created the Catalan article cut a great deal of the article. He's still active, someone might want to talk to him about this. - Jmabel | Talk 07:02, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
Doesn't this need a rewriting in an encyclopedic manner?
