[edit] Translation

The articles in other languages (those that I can read at least) referenced from this (e.g. de:Quellenkritik has a much broader definition. That is, the careful reading of any source and the (formal or informal) analysis of facts and presentation. The English definition seems to aim for analysis of more specific subjects.

I'm not sure if this article is too narrow or if the "translations" refer to the incorrect article. I do hope that there is a word and article for the general source analysis, but as non-native in English I can't find it. JAGulin 15:00, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
