Hey there, I was just wondering how I would go about getting someone to delete a few things from my portfolio if that's possible?
Thanks in advance!

Unfortunately, that is impossible. Since YWS keeps track of post counts / reviews and gives rewards for those things, most things posted are maintained. However, you could always go in and remove the original text from your post by Editing it out.

Also, you should probably change the title to "removed" or something similar to let people know the work's not there anymore. :) Usually, it's best to include a note that you removed something by saying "removed by author."

Also, you can hide deleted works in your portfolio.

Go to your profile and click the Portfolio tab. In the upper left corner, there should be [ Edit Portfolio ]. Hit that, scroll down to the works you want to hide, and there should be a link saying "Make X Invisible to Others". And there you go.

To go back to the regular view, scroll up the page and hit [ View Portfolio ]. The works you hid should no longer be visible.

The idea that a poem was a made thing stayed with me, and I decided then that I wanted to be an artist, not just a diarist. So I put myself through a kind of apprenticeship in writing poetry, and I understood even then that my practice as a poet was deeply related to my reading.
