"Dance" lists and related articles
One thing that is going to need to be handled is the various dance related articles that are all over the place- probably requiring merging, and reworking into the main dance article. I for one, would like to get all the "main" articles, especially Dance, ready for the featured articles listing. We'll have to figure out a proper way to merge all these pages, and i'll attempt to start a list here of all those that look to be random and needing merging. They also may not need merging with the main Dance page, but could use other merging, to condense the information into proper areas. Or, they may need massive expansion, and just proper mention in the main dance article.Lyellin 14:48, Aug 3, 2004 (UTC)

(note: have split Lyellin's list into groups Ohka- 19:39, 3 Aug 2004 (UTC))


 * Dance and Cinema - main article: (new)
 * Dance for camera - expand
 * Dance film - merge: Dance for camera: sub catergory.
 * Dance in film - expand
 * Musical film - expand

how about a new main article for Dance and Cinema that briefly covers all the subsets and leads onto them. it could also be an subsection of the main dance page.


 * History of dance - expand - main article
 * Dance in mythology and religion - expand - merge: History of dance: fit into timeline as  mythological and religious context''
 * Dance and health - expand - merge: History of dance: sub catergory
 * Dance and society - expand - merge: History of dance: fit into timeline as social context

History of dance needs a lot of work. these sections could be added to give social and religious context.


 * dance reference pages
 * List_of_dance_style_categories - add to as needed
 * List of dances - add to as needed
 * Glossary of partner dance terms  - expand
 * Glossary of ballet terms  - expand
 * Dance music  - expand
 * Dance personalia - add to as needed

these pages are simply references, i'm not sure that they need to be merged. there is some potential for list of dances and dance music to be added to History of dance. possible inclusion of highly annotated dance bibliograhy.


 * Dance notation - expand - main article

redlinks need to be turned blue. and needs some mention on main dance page. again ref Ohka-

Dance etiquette varies according to context, form and style. perhaps this should be a part of other articles rather than and article itself?
 * Dance etiquette - ?


 * Musical terminology - ?

not sure about this one...


 * Dance basic topics - ?

should this be merged with WikiProject Dance pages ?
