I have a question regarding valid acceptable references and sourcing for new articles.

For technical entries, are articles and reports from industry-leading analysts (such as Gartner, IDC, Forrester Research, etc.) considered valid?

Thanks for your help!

Right, sorry, I forgot to check back on you. I think those would probably be valid, yes. See WP:RS for more on what Wikipedia considers a reliable source. Also, don't forget to sign your posts with ~~~~. Cheers, xenocidic (talk) 18:52, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, I figured out who posted it by looking at my talk page history =). See above for your answer. xenocidic (talk) 18:56, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

As long as the sources are reliable, 3rd party, published documents, you should be ok. I gather the analysts you mention would meet these criteria. xenocidic (talk) 19:05, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks so much! I really appreciate your help.
