When listing an article, please provide the major points which will need to be addressed (sourcing, expansion, etc), but keep the specifics on the individual talk pages.

• Editor at Large (talk · contribs) -- Most definitely I. This should be collaboration of the year, I think; it just might take that long ;-)
• Keitei (talk · contribs) -- Agreed.

• Slhogan94 (talk · contribs) -- I've been staring at the ballet article for months, and I've finally made the decision to stop staring it and actually get bold and do something about it. Let's get this to Good Article status!!
