Indiscriminate list of… well, miscellaneous information. Not only are there no criteria for why something should be here in this weird appendix rather than in the main page suite, half of the entries aren’t even “translations” so much as paraphrases.

Delete I've made the point before, when a list starts with the immortal words "A broader list of XYZ is at List of XYZ", then the list it introduces is a non-list. Delete with prejudice. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 10:55, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Merge selectively into the existing articles Modern English Bible translations and Bible translations into English and Early Modern English Bible translations. It is perhaps a bit unfortunate that there are already three pages rather than one. The exact time-point at which something becomes a "Modern" translation rather than "Early Modern" would be rather helpful. It's sounding like those compass directions (North by north by a bit east of North east). There certainly shouldn't be an additional miscellaneous list - but it's possible some items in it will have escaped attention in one of the other three pages while still being notable and worthy of mention.

Merge Selectively. The page mentions its for translations that are 'not easily classified in the other groups', however looking through the list I think the notable ones could be merged into the existing Early Modern English Bible translations and Modern English Bible translations. Some like the Modern Literal Version, Joseph Smith translation and Jefferson bible are already included in both the Misc and Modern list. Mousymouse (talk) 02:31, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Selective merge per above. Srijanx22 (talk) 04:37, 26 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
