Source-derived summary

The Euskomedia Fundazioa is a foundation established in 2002 by the Society of Basque Studies. Its principal objective is the provision of cultural and scientific material " that could be of use for people interested in Basque society and culture."

In 2008, in association with Society of Basque Studies, the Euskomedia foundation published an internet version of Joanes Leizarraga's translation of the New Testament into the Basque language.

Eusko Ikaskuntza closed the Euskomedia Foundation on July 1, 2016, and the management of all funds was transferred to Society of Basque Studies.

Since January 2018, Digital Documentation Center of Basque Studies, was made available on the Euskomedia Foundation website.

Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with Euskomedia, Fundazioa and Open-knowledge providing the first useful test.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Euskomedia Fundazioa”, the useful work is to connect “open-knowledge reference entry” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.

Evidence profile

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 21, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q3061004. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2002, 2008, 2016 and 2018.

Critical limits

The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
