IMHO this is slightly off-topic.  Answers.com (or any other mirror's) 
policy is of little interest to wikipedians that translate articles from 
other's wikipedias (note the subject).

That said, I think that [[:fr:Andorra]] on a mirror should really be a 
link to the French mirrored article.  In this article, it should be 
noted that the content is from (French) Wikipedia.  If the mirror site 
does not mirror French version of Wikipedia, then it should make sure 
that all fr: links are redirected to the original fr.wikipedia.org.

At least this is how I understand this issue ...
