1. A computer implemented method comprising:

  • providing a graphical interface for annotating an electronic document;

    receiving, from a first user, a first annotation to the electronic document via the interface;

    associating the first annotation to the electronic document with a first cluster identifier, the first cluster identifier comprising a credential associated with the user, a unique identifier for the electronic document, and metadata associated with the electronic document, wherein the metadata comprises a first version number for the electronic document, the first cluster identifier further comprising a first language identifier indicating a first language of the electronic document; and

    storing the annotation with the first cluster identifier;

    the method further comprising;

    receiving a second annotation associated with the electronic document, the second annotation comprising a second cluster identifier, the second cluster identifier comprising a second language identifier indicating a second language of the electronic document, and metadata indicating a second version number of the electronic document, the second version number greater than the first version number;

    determining that the first annotation is applicable to the second version number of the electronic document; and

    synchronizing electronic documents that are associated with the second version number with the first annotation;

    the method further comprising;

    determining, from the first cluster identifier, that the first annotation is in a first language based on the first language identifier;

    determining from the second cluster identifier, that the second annotation is in a second language based on the second language identifier, the second language different from the first language;

    determining, based on the second cluster identifier, a language of a version of the electronic document associated with the second version number of the electronic document; and
