[edit] Sources

I translated this article from the Esperanto version on the Esperanto "Vikipedio", which is accessible from the English version via the list of languages on the navigation panel on the left side of the screen. (Please see the first edit summary for the English version.) The Esperanto version has two external links under the heading "Eksteraj Ligoj" (meaning "External Links"). The first link is to a page in Esperanto. The second link is to a page (with the top-level domain .at, meaning Austria) being mostly in the German language, but with titles listed under "Titel" (meaning "Title") being in Esperanto for numbers 1, 2, 4, 7, 9, and 10; in Italian for numbers 3 and 6; in English for number 5; and in Polish for number 8. -- Wavelength 23:52, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

I supplied a bit of material on Edmond Privat's pre-1905 life, based on the Encyclopedia of Esperanto. I believe the eo.wikipedia article is not a completely accurate version of the facts given in that 1934 work, which declares that Privat had already learned Esperanto in childhood before meeting Hector Hodier, with whom he went on to found The Young Esperantist. I'll try to work through some more of that material to supply any important details that may be left out of the current article. Objectivesea 03:14, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
