Machine translation, like DeepL or Google Translate, is a useful starting point for translations, but translators must revise errors as necessary and confirm that the translation is accurate, rather than simply copy-pasting machine-translated text into the English Wikipedia.
Do not translate text that appears unreliable or low-quality. If possible, verify the text with references provided in the foreign-language article.

Although Rousset can be traced back to the Romans, the first written mention comes in a 1050 document, under the name of "Rosselun" or "roscetum rosetum".[3] In the Middle Ages, a castle as well as a church and chapels were built, as dwellings increased.[3]
It is now home to a semiconductor fab and research center of STMicroelectronics and until 2014 also of another fab of LFoundry [de] (originally set up by Atmel)
