Attributions
New rituals are folk religion, and their best elements are often adopted and adapted by others without attribution. Where it has been possible to cite authors of original work, this has been done. If you find something on the site which is yours, or you know the author, please inform us, so that the oversight can be corrected. We apologize for any such omissions where they occur.
Biblical Citations
All biblical translations are taken from the Jewish Publication Society (JPS) Tanakh, unless otherwise noted.
Transliterations
There is no absolute standard for transliterations from Hebrew into English, which is why greeting cards sometimes wish you a Happy Hannukah ... or Chanuka ... or Hanukka, or....
Within the prose which has been written expressly for the site, Ritualwell primarily follows the transliteration practice of the Jewish Publication Society (JPS). The editors do not, however, standardize the transliterations in material submitted to the site by others. In most cases, authors' transliterations are retained as submitted.
