    Most users of this site are unaware that the behind the scenes work of adding and editing details and responding to questions is done by a team of willing volunteers (currently half a dozen active members)
    Obviously we cannot check every poem and poet that qualifies for inclusion on the site, especially non-English ones.

    We need help in the following areas

    1. Finding and uploading good poems by good authors.

    2. Finding and uploading original language AND translations of poetry, both for poems already on our site and newly added works.

    3. Editing and adding accurate biographical details about the poets whose poems we are using.

    4. Checking out queries reported by our readers and where necessary adjusting the site content.

    If you are interested in helping out please send me a message either via this thread or as an IM by hovering on my logo at the top of the article.

    You will not be committing yourself to anything if you don't want to BUT you could be helping thousands of readers all over the world.
