Suggested source for Ballet Ireland

[edit]

I had a quick look for references that might enhance the Draft:Ballet Ireland article. I was taken by this one: Seaver, Michael (2002-04-16). "Do we need Ballet Ireland?". The Irish Times. Retrieved 2021-01-17. because it ticks all the boxes for independence and reliability while being a decent discussion of whether Ireland even needed a new ballet company. I think that you should put into your own words some of the text along the lines of "some criticism was directed at the new company because....". Articles in Wikipedia need to be written from a neutral point of view which means allowing some negativity as well as simply factual and positive information. If I find further sources, I'll add them to the Talk Page of the article. Mike Turnbull (talk) 16:09, 17 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ballet Ireland

[edit]

Hey. Regarding your message at my talk page, you're most welcome. Anyway, I'm dropping by because noticed a seeming problem in the article. I could probably figure out the origin myself by looking through the page history for the original text, but since you're the creator and so know what was intended... the underlined part of the following sentence just doesn't really make much sense or at least could use some clarification: "Following various previous ventures, ballet in Ireland Irish Ballet had a "home" in the Irish National Ballet,..." (emphasis added). I'm guessing this results from someone's not-so-great but good faith attempt to "help".--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 14:36, 19 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Fuhghettaboutit, thank you for the message. I will take a look at this for sure as soon as I am home. Many thanks! Midnight713 (talk) 15:35, 19 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Fuhghettaboutit I see what you are referring to now. It was 'Irish Ballet'. An editor changed that to 'ballet in Ireland' but I think forgot to delete the former. Which reads better to you? I will delete the other. Many thanks for pointing it out! Editors including yourself have been really helpful in my first 2 days here. Gives me great motivation to learn and improve!
