Editing is probably the most accurate word.  I call it word smithing and
it's been a big part of my job.  Sometimes it even involves translation,
like when converting "Chinglish" or "Spanglish" to standard English ;-)

Do you mean editing?


What it is called when you take a work and put into the same language 
but "fix" spellings, punctionation, etc. Eg, Shakespeare or Chaucer 
into modern English, Renaissance German into modern German, etc.? I 
thought there was another term for this, other than translation, but I'm 
drawing a blank.
