A very warm welcome to Wikipedia, Poetzinger! I'm very happy to see such an adept new dance editor. I'd like to bring your attention to WikiProject Dance, a group of editors working on improving dance coverage, and particularly to the discussion on Talk:Concert dance#Remodeling, the locus of a recent push to coordinate efforts in this area.

You clearly know your way around Wikipedia, but there are some inside tricks which can take a while to pick up. One of my favorites is the use of WP:Citation templates, and the handy Wikipedia:RefToolbar which makes them easier to fill in.

Again, I'm glad you're here! I wish you all the best and look forward to collaborating. FourViolas (talk) 04:34, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

P. S. Users are usually welcomed with less-personalized WP:Welcome templates. Here's a good one:

Welcome!
