Stuttgart Ballet

Stuttgart Ballet, you made changes that I reverted for two reasons:

• When associated to an article subject, you best don't edit the article at all. Per WP:COI, a conflict of interest may be suspected. Please create a user page and say exactly in which capacity you work for the organisation, especially when paid.
• Don't ever remove information which has a reference, as long as what is said in the reference is reflected in the article. You can add what is more correct with a reference saying so, - vs. just you saying so. Your best bet may be to just go to the article's talk page and explain why what's there is wrong, with a reference. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:08, 8 February 2022 (UTC)

Now you added a long list of names. Again several concerns:

• Who needs names with no link? (I fixed some links.)
• Where is a reference for these names?
• Can we please for the notable ones indicate from when to when they danced in Stuttgart? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:49, 8 February 2022 (UTC)

@Gerda Arendt: thank you for your annotations. We now added an annotation to the article's talk page to correct false information in the Wikipedia Article. Can this false information be removed from the wikipedia page? We also added sources which verify that the given information is wrong.

About the names: We just wanted to add dancers that danced in the Stuttgart Ballet. Not all of them have a wikipedia page so we couldn´t link all of them. To know the names of famous dancers who danced or still dance at Stuttgart Ballet is in our opinion an important information, so we wanted to provide this information.

We have a question: The changes on the German Wikipedia page are still not reviewed. Can you tell us how and when this will be done? The German page also contains false information concerning Mikhail Agrest.

And one more thing: The page of the John Cranko School contains a wrong link to the Name of Roland Vogel. He is a dancer but is linked to a soccer player. We tried to change that, but these changes were not accepted. How can we remove this false link?

Thank you for the reply, very good to discuss at the article. (I formatted your reply a bit, indenting as is usual on talk pages.) I'm a bit pressed for time right now, wanting to create Peter Merseburger - can't believe he had no article until today. Short reply: the Wikipedia page is not the ballet's home page, and I fear no unlinked dancer's name will be remembered by a reader, - consider to comment out the unlinked names until they get an article. You can connect to articles in other languages, - copy what I did. - Please have a source ready for all you add to Wikipedia, and best a source which isn't the ballet's website which is not regarded as independent (but will be accepted for dancers' names). - I'll change the Vogel link, but more later. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:18, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

I looked at de:John Cranko Schule, where at present we have your version, with all the names, but it was reverted before saying that all the name are "nutzlos", and - as said before - I agree. So it's not only about the wrong person, and I won't get involved. Best you say on that specific article that Vogel is the wrong person. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:28, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

@Gerda Arendt: thank you for your reply. We deleted all the names that have no link. I hope the changes can now be accepted. Thank you for your help. --Stuttgart Ballet (talk) 13:49, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

Thank you! - I don't know much about ballet, for specific questions you may want to contact Corachow. - On talk pages, we add one indent for every new comment, for ease of others to follow a discussion. I did it for you. A ping only works together with a new signature. When still the same day, I normally don't need a ping, but see changes on my watchlist. -Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:05, 18 February 2022 (UTC)-

@Gerda Arendt: do you know who will review the German article and when this will happen? There is still false information on the german wikipedia page, but no one reviewed the corrections yet.

The German system is difficult. Look, there are by now so many accumulated changes that nobody - including me - will take responsibility for all of them. I recommend you say on the article talk page what's wrong. I avoid the German Wikipedia, sorry to be of little help there. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:45, 22 February 2022 (UTC)

@Gerda Arendt: Thank you anyway for your help! We already wrote it down on the talk page. But the false information is still on the main page so it´s still not a good situation.

Draft:Helmut Günther

Could you perhaps help with referenced to support the facts in Draft:Helmut Günther? Such as that he taught at the John Cranko School for a while? --
