Sup /lit/, I've a made a companion to the Bible charts for Quran translations, since there seems to be interest but not much knowledge.

Hope you guys find it useful.

What are the major differences between the denominational editions? The text is the same but the notes are different?

The Shiite and Salafi translations rely heavily on commentaries from their respective traditions to translate the meaning. But the biggest difference is the notes, the Shia one has notes on Shiite doctrine and observance and biased notes on Islamic history. The Salafi one is similarly biased, but towards Salafism of course. The notes of the Sufi translation reflect more mystical interpretations though the translation itself is relatively non-biased.
