Most scholars concentrate on translation quality assessment in the target language. The quality of source texts in the translation process is only exceptionally considered. This publication explains some emerging problems linguistic experts are facing when source texts are deficient, analysing the impeccability of the source text in translations by adopting a critical perspective on the impeccability of such texts and shows how difficult it sometimes is to drain a useful source text as a safe basis for high quality technical translations.
