Abstract: Information overloads and barrages researchers. How are we to face this deluge? Social media may help [1] but this may lead to inaccuracies Smoglia & Kendall [2]. The situation is worse in China because some Chinese media use “translation problems†as an excuse so that they avoid the risk of blame. Formatting alone Moore [3] is trivial for non-native English readers and writers compared with bilingual editing for high-profile journals in English. In our view, we need journals in English plus the local language (bilingual). Our casual survey hints that some Editors-in-Chief agree that journals could shoulder the burden of providing high-quality bilingual editing. This is feasible if one considers the costs of translation programs and the additional publication fees they may incur. Japan’s bilingual journals may have contributed to their harvest of more Nobel laureates than any other Asian nation. We wonder if bilingual research might occasionally provide more inspiration for China and non-English speaking countries as well.
