Q. Should a Russian journal title appearing in an English-language bibliography be Latinized? Or should both the Russian and transliterated versions of the journal’s title be listed? Is it correct to transliterate names of journals?

A. This is a matter of editorial judgment rather than correctness. Factors in making the decision include whether your expected readers are able to read untransliterated Russian, whether special characters can be produced (or typeset), whether the preparer knows how to transliterate correctly, and whether the publisher (if the document is going to be published) has a policy about transliteration.
