Problematic. The cited source can only be viewed in the U.K., and thus is not available to about 90% of the world that Wikipedia serves. Would hold for a more-accessible source. --Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 16:30, 21 May 2013 (UTC) (13:10, 21 May 2013 (UTC))
- I don't think there is anything against using a source like that in the rules but I'll check with the DYK talk before I make any changes. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 13:11, 21 May 2013 (UTC)
- I can confirm the citation is fine and supports the article. Since foreign language books are frequently used at DYK, I think we can allow this article through.--Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 13:21, 21 May 2013 (UTC)
- So... would that be an AGF? --Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 16:30, 21 May 2013 (UTC)
- Technically yes, since you can't check it yourself. However you do have an assurance from an uninvolved editor assuring that it is reliable. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 16:34, 21 May 2013 (UTC)
- (edit conflict)If you wish to take my word for it ... I could email you a copy if you wish.--Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 16:36, 21 May 2013 (UTC)
