"But it says so on this foreign-language Wikipedia!" It may, but Wikipedia is not a reliable source; it is a user-generated source that can be edited at anyone at any time. It can be wrong, in progress, or susceptible to vandalism. Find a more reliable source, such as a secondary source, and if the concerning material is not sourced on the foreign-language article, you should either find a source that supports what you're trying to add, or do not include it at all. The article is better off as a fully verifiable stub than it is filled with unsourced or original material.
