International Journal of Translation Studies VO 30 IS 2 SP 310 OP 331 DO https://doi.org/10.1075/target.16104.mel PB John Benjamins SN 0924-1884, AB Abstract Editing and revision are regularly incorporated into professional translation projects as a means of quality assurance. Underlying the decision to include these tasks in translation workflows lay implicit assumptions about what constitutes quality. This article examines how quality is operationalized with respect to editing and revision and considers these assumptions. The case is made for incorporating revision into translation quality assessment models and employs the concepts of adequacy, distributed cognition, and salience – and their treatment in the research on cognitive translation processes, post-editing, and translation technology – in order to re-think translation quality., UL https://www.jbe-platform.com/content/journals/10.1075/target.16104.mel
