Walter,
I'm sorry but I've had to delete the latter part of your post, though I understand your frustration...
As for the matter of search engines etc, here's a reminder of some of our Guidelines:
Threads in our workshop Forums—Metrical, The Deep End, Non-Metrical, and Translation—are not detectable by search engines.
Visitors and members are advised that posting a text for workshopping on this board does not constitute publication.
The very act of an author's posting work for critique on Eratosphere's workshop boards implies an admission that such work is still unfinished, and that the author is not yet prepared to allow its publication.
You can edit your own posts. If you need a post deleted, please PM a Moderator.
And a further reminder about the last point: Please do not delete your own poem from a thread you have started because you've submitted it for publication. It isn't fair to have critiques visible but not the poem!
If you can't wait till the next pruning (which will be in June, incidentally) please PM me and I will prune the individual thread for you.
Thank you. I think we're done with this thread now.
Jayne
