[edit] Text philosophy

Texts for the WikiProject must meet three criteria to be considered complete:

1. There must be a copy of the original text (Hebrew, Aramaic, Ladino etc.), if the text was not originally in English.
2. There must be an English translation.
3. Relevant commentaries should be included and translated appropriately.

Additionally, the original text (regardless of language) should include modern English punctuation marks if that is at all possible to do.
