Editorial charter
The commitments that govern what is published, who decides, and how mistakes are fixed.
Who decides
Publication decisions belong to named human reviewers, not to the AI. Reviewers are paid for their time, disclose conflicts of interest, and are free to disagree in public. Reviewers to be announced.
What “reviewed” means
Every published verse will carry its status: draft, checked by the automatic tests, or reviewed. A reviewed verse will name the reviewer, the scope of their review (the verse, the passage or the book) and the date. Dissents will be published next to the text they concern.
Editions and corrections
- Editions are frozen and numbered. Re-running the drafting process makes a new edition, never a silent change.
- Corrections will be listed publicly with the edition they apply to.
- Anyone will be able to report a problem with a verse from the verse itself. Reports will be answered and, where accepted, listed with the correction.
Contested passages
Where traditions read a passage differently, the main text makes one choice and says so. The notes give the alternatives, the evidence for each, and who holds them, without labeling anyone’s reading as wrong.
Use of AI
AI is used to draft and to check, and that is said plainly wherever the text appears. The AI is not presented as a person, a pastor or an authority.
