Machine translation, like DeepL or Google Translate, is a useful starting point for translations, but translators must revise errors as necessary and confirm that the translation is accurate, rather than simply copy-pasting machine-translated text into the English Wikipedia.
Do not translate text that appears unreliable or low-quality. If possible, verify the text with references provided in the foreign-language article.
You must provide copyright attribution in the edit summary accompanying your translation by providing an interlanguage link to the source of your translation. A model attribution edit summary is Content in this edit is translated from the existing Russian Wikipedia article at [[:ru:Асов, Александр Игоревич]]; see its history for attribution.
You should also add the template ((Translated|ru|Асов, Александр Игоревич)) to the talk page.

Alexander Igorevich Asov (Russian: Александр Игоревич Асов, IPA:[ɐlʲɪˈksandrɪˈɡorʲɪvʲɪtɕˈasəf]; born 29 June 1964), alias Bus Kresen (Бус Кресень, IPA:[buskrʲesʲenʲ]), is an author of books in Russianpseudohistory (called "фолк-хистори" ("folk-history") in Russian publications), as well as novels and poems.[2][3] He is best known as translator and commenter of allegedly ancient Slavic texts, including Book of Veles, widely recognized as forgeries.[4][5][6]
In 2012, a forum of several rodnoveriye (Russian neopaganism) movements published a declaration, which described studies of A. Asov (along with some others) as detrimental to Russian neopaganism.[7][8]
