Re-Import ALL Translations/Teekas/Steeks #1392

Open sarabveer opened 4 years ago

sarabveer commented 4 years ago

Over the years, various sources have been used to construct the current Shabad OS Database. With this, the translations were inherited from such sources.

It has been noted that many places there are many mistakes in translations due the improper handling of them in the sources. Another problem is I have a belief some of the translations were modified/interpolated while they were imported from source to source.

Hopefully, the translations can be word for word the same as per the published variants so they can be used for citations.

The below table tries to follow the trail of sources to find/trace the original source for the translations.

It will list the source, ascending from recent to close to original, for example:

  1. iGurbani
  2. SearchGurbani
  3. etc
  4. etc

In this hypothetical example, it would indicate Shabad OS received the translation from iGurbani, which iGurbani received from SearchGurbani, and so-on and so-forth.

The General trend is that anything sourced from SearchGurbani was originally sourced from Isher Mirco Media (and many of the mistakes come from SearchGurbani).

Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji

English

Sant Singh Khalsa

  1. iGurbani
  2. SearchGurbani or SikhiToTheMax II (not to sure here)
  3. (if in case of SearchGurbani) Isher Mirco Media
  4. Dr. Kulbir Singh Thind
  5. SikhNet

Bhai Manmohan Singh

  1. iGurbani
  2. SearchGurbani
  3. Isher Mirco Media

In this case, there is no text PDF of this translation, would need to assume IMM as original. There is a scanned copy, but that requires a good quality OCR, which may have more mistakes.
