Translation Policy

English is the primary editorial edition, while translated pages extend access with clear disclosure about AI assistance and review limits.

OZJF publishes translated pages so readers can reach the material in the languages they use. Because translation quality varies, each edition should make clear whether it has been reviewed and that English remains the source edition.

The editorial rule

English is the primary editorial edition. If a translation differs in meaning, nuance, or legal wording, readers should rely on the English page unless the translated page has been reviewed and corrected.

How translations are made

Some pages use AI-assisted translation because OZJF has limited translation resources. A page notice identifies whether the edition is translated, reviewed, or still a placeholder. Policy, legal, giving, and research pages require closer review than a basic overview before they enter search and other discovery surfaces.

How to check an edition

  • A clear language label
  • A stable URL for the translated page
  • A direct path back to the English edition
  • A notice when a translation is still limited or under review

Route availability does not mean every language edition has received equal review. The language access policy explains how that difference affects search and discovery.

Reporting a translation problem

If you find a mistranslation, a shifted claim, or an ambiguity caused by wording, use the contact page. Include the language, URL, and the passage at issue.
