Yes, English sources are preferred when available, but Turkish ones are

...yes. But acceptability of sources can't magically make someone who
can't read Turkish able to tell if a given article is usable as a
"source" or not. Simply saying "there's lots of stuff in Turkish, some
of it could be usable" does not a source provide.
At the end of the day, the "sources" (a conceptually bad name, but
let's skip that) for an article have to be provided by someone who
knows what they're talking about, and is willing to think about the
matter for a while.
