Does not appear to be a subject notable enough for a stand-alone article. Might be appropriate for a redirect, but I'm not sure what the target should be. I would say it's a common enough phenomenon to justify a merge except that there's no properly sourced content to merge. I'm nominating this and two other articles (METRiQ and medical translation) created by a user whose edits, as indicated by the language used in the articles and by sourcing entirely to for-profit translation organizations/sites, suggests WP:PROMO. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 18:15, 29 October 2014 (UTC)

• As far as I can see, looking at results in GBooks and GScholar, "regulatory translation" refers to notable concepts in both law and biology. The legal usage, however, refers to the translation of public policy objectives into the terms of a private contract [http://books.google.de/books?id=Sx4vBytEPw0C&pg=PA42] [http://heinonline.org/HOL/LandingPage?handle=hein.journals/ilr94&div=26&id=&page=], which is not what this article is about. There are two articles in JSTOR that I have not considered. The usage in biology is something to do with proteins and is also different to the subject of this article. This second usage seems very common, appearing in large numbers of papers. This expression should, at the very least, be a redirect. The article nominated for deletion does not appear promotional to me. James500 (talk) 05:16, 30 October 2014 (UTC)
