 | This page is a guideline on the Indian English Bharatpedia. Many editors agree with the ideas on this page. It is a good idea to follow it, but it is not policy. You can change the page as needed, but please use the talk page to make sure that other editors agree with any big changes. |
 | This page in a nutshell: Translated text created with AI tools may not be placed in articles unless it has been reviewed by a human skilled in both the origin and target languages. |
This guideline applies to machine translation tools that include a large language model ("LLM"). Assume that it applies to any online translation tool unless you have confirmed there is no LLM element.
When translating text from a non-Bharatpedia into Bharatpedia mainspace, you may only use these tools when:
- You are skilled enough in both the origin language and English to confirm the translation is accurate;
- You have checked for, and removed, all AI hallucinations and other core content policy violations;
- You have checked the sources in the origin language article and you are sure the translated text reflects them fairly, and each fact or claim likely to be challenged is supported by an inline citation to a reliable source; and
- You have complied with all the usual translation processes including terms of use-compliant attribution.
You may put the raw LLM-translated text into your userspace (preferred) or draftspace while you work on it. If you do, you must immediately tag it as automatically translated text needing review from a human who is skilled in both languages using the {{LLM-assisted translation}} template. Pages tagged with this template are added to the LLM-assisted translations in need of review category.
