Wait a minute. If a work esists in, say, ru.wikisource, And then someone translates that work and posts his translation under a free license in he.wikisource, I am not to link the hebrew version to its source in ru.ws on wikidata, But to create a seperate wikidata entry for it? This makes zero sense to me, and we never did it this way on he.wikisource.
