At the top of the Poetry section it says:
"Poetry" is in the eye of the beholder; it could be any of:
- Poetry written in Perl
- Using perl to generate poetry
- Poetry about Perl/PerlMonks
So, there is no compilation requirement here at the Monastery. The 1st bullet item implies that it should compile; the 2nd bullet should compile; the 3rd is usually just plain text with a Perl theme. | [reply] |

I believe that perl poems *should* compile without errors; however, "Perl poems" are cultural and community inceptions, and are not an integral, or specificational, part of the language. As such, there is no rule that says they should or shouldn't compile, and it's the prerogative of composer of a Perl poem to choose whether to adhere to this convention or not.
I also believe that, Wikipedia artices, which are written by whomever wishes to, should not be treated as definitive.
