Can we add these? The first two are for polytonic Greek which obviously works for monotonic Greek also. Tha last one converts Greek writen in Latin characters to Greek (; becomes the accent mark)

May I suggest two powerful and reliable sources to be included in the official "Useful Links" page for biblical translations and versions, maybe to be created in a new category, such as "Religion" or "Religious References", to be extended by other "fields of knowledge" categories:

BibleGateway.com: Search for a Bible passage in over 35 languages and 50 versions

Read about Biblegateway.

Bibleserver.com - Your Bible on the Net

Read about Bibleserver.

Done! Any volunteers with knowledge on other religions who could contribute with some reliable sources would be welcome. Just to get a bit more ecumenical.

Other fields of knowledge too!

Remember: translation, linguistics and reference related links.

Maybe post the link and describe it first, in order to get your peers' approval.

As a professional translator, I feel it would be helpful to have more links to terminology resources and reference translations, such as the ones on Linguee. What do you think?
