    Hi, TrekBBS.

    You all know Star Trek Reviewed as the most startlingly complete listing of fan films in the quadrant. Dramas, parodies, audios, series, films short and long, STR is fanatically dedicated to listing it all.

    Right now, STR is in the middle of migrating off of its longtime Blogspot hosting to a new website. The new website has a new database that will help us keep the site tidy and maintainable. It should be much easier to use than the current site, and we're excited for it.

    The problem is that all the data from Blogspot has to be entered into the new website manually. And there are hundreds and hundreds of pages on the STR Blogspot. For a small team that's already working pretty hard to keep the current site up to date, it's too much to handle on our own.

    So we are seeking help. If you care about fan productions and would like to help contribute to making the most exhaustive list of fan productions out there a cleaner, more user-friendly experience, please PM me or write to the team at startrekreviewed@gmail.com. No skills are required. You just need an internet connection, a keyboard, and a willingness to diligently copy data from one source to another for many hours. (There's occasionally a bit of detective work involved as well.)

    Thanks for your help!

    Best,
    James
