I give up![edit]

I give up on trying to site a book source - it keeps coming out wrong. Could someone do it for me?

For the two "citation needed" paragraphs, heres the credit -

author - Roland John Wiley
book - The Life and Ballets of Lev Ivanov
publisher - Oxford University press
year - 1997
ISBN - 0-19-816567-6
City - New York

just in case - for the first paragraph, pp. 165, and for the second paragraph, pp.164

Use the templates you see in other articles if you don't feel confident doing it on your own. Just copy and paste the information. 130.49.148.51

Done. Dkreisst (talk) 08:17, 14 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Merger proposal[edit]

I get it that this is a historically special combination, but unless anyone can dig up an article on "the thirty-two-fouetté" in depth, I think this should be a note under 'Fouetté" on the Turn page: something like

"...Particular significance is attached to the successful completion of thirty-two consecutive fouettés, a feat first achieved by Mariinsky prima ballerina assoluta Pierina Legnani in 1893 and since incorporated into many 20th-century ballets."

Compare to the "Four-minute mile" page, which is justified by dozens of news articles and an entire BBC miniseries. — Preceding unsigned comment added by FourViolas (talk • contribs) 05:11, 16 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Agree. I filtered out what I believe to be unnecessary/irrelevant info and think the remaining content could be easily (and sensibly) merged into Fouetté. Lambtron (talk) 16:55, 20 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

FourViolas, I added your suggested text (with mods) to Fouetté and consummated the merge as it doesn't seem controversial. Lambtron (talk) 16:15, 21 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Lambtron! Nice to meet a senior Dance WikiProjector. I'm currently working on the Somatics article; do you have suggestions for a useful next project? FourViolas (talk) 23:54, 21 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
