 * To start off, there is a warning at the very beginning of the article that says this article has issues. it may not be reliable and you should go to the talk page.

 * Article title:

 * Article Evaluation:
 * I picked this article because everyone always says in the dance world how important it is to train in ballet.

It has a lot of sources cited and talks a lot about the history of ballet dancing. Just like the other articles, it has multiple headings which make it easier for the audience to read. It also has a very long list of refrences.
