Special request

Post by News Gal »

Hi everyone,
I wanted to ask if it's allowed to post poems that aren't in English if you give the translation. I've written quite a few in Italian and Sicilian and might want to put them up soon. As for Cherokee, this site doesn't support the proper font (it's Unicode and everyone would have to have the right font on their computer to view it)

Hi News Gal ~

There are no rules regarding anything like that. In fact, I don't know that there are any rules... just objections from time to time, when excess profanity emerges. Personal, ad hominem, ad feminem, attacks, of course ~ no go.

I'm looking forward to reading your poems, and thanks for including the translation. How about putting the Cherokee translations here.

Thanks for the info! I have to do tons of typing to get them ready LOL, it's been crazy at the station with March Madness and my news director going in for surgery soon (he has a tumor on his brain stem :shock: ) I'll see what I can do. As for the Cherokee, it requires those reading it to have a special font for syllabics. I could use Romanized Cherokee though.
