We make expertise on the literature of Viet Nam readily available through articles by people familiar with their topic. We want any reader to quickly find the basic facts and the research leads he or she needs. If you don't find what you are looking for, feel free to contact the publisher at editor@vietnamlit.org. '''Volunteer contributors''' on nearly any topic within Vietnamese literature are welcome. We solicit contributors to cover the works, authors, periods, publishers, critics, scholars, magazines, websites, issues, controversies, genres and themes that will provide expansive entry to Vietnamese literature for those who read English. '''Topics''' from any Vietnamese dynasty, war, colonization or globalization are welcome. We welcome articles in English on work in English, French and other languages as well as in Vietnamese, and on works by foreign scholars, soldiers, missionaries, diplomats, journalists and travelers as well as ethnic Vietnamese, national minority, emigrant and overseas authors. '''We especially welcome''' articles about literature from the Republic of Viet Nam, 1954-1975, and the diaspora of that nation, which are little known both outside Vietnamese language and within Viet Nam. '''We remove''' articles that libel any author as a secret agent of the Vietnamese Communist Party, or compare a critic to a Nazi, and so on. We will prepare and protect articles that review these controversies in Vietnamese literature but will not provide a forum for accusations. '''If you feel that your English''' is inadequate to contribute to an article, please write to editor@vietnamlit.org in English, Vietnamese or French and the publisher will work with the Wikivietlit editors to assist you. </div> </div> <div style="background:#fff; padding: 0.5; border:1px solid #aaaaaa; margin-bottom: 10px; width: 49%; float: left; clear: left;"><h1 style="margin:0;padding:0.5em;background:#eee;">'''Wikivietlit Staff'''</h1> <div style="padding: 0.5em;"> [[Image:Linh_Dinh_and_Hai-Dang_Phan_in_Illinois.jpg‎|Editor [[Linh Dinh]] and contributor Hai-Dang Phan in Illinois, 2007|left|frame]] '''Publisher''' [[Dan Duffy]] '''Editor''' [[Linh Dinh]] '''Wikimaster''' [http://www.philiparthurmoore.com/ Philip Arthur Moore] <div style="border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 1em; background: #eee; line-height: 1.6em; clear: both;"> ''Wikivietlit is an activity of the Viet Nam Literature Project (VNLP), a d/b/a of Books & Authors: Viet Nam, Inc.
