I tripped upon the NYCB page on Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_City_Ballet and then took a look at the page for Miami City Ballet http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miami_City_Ballet. This page could benefit from some of the BT expertise to spruce it up.

I have a vague idea that one can contribute to expand those Wikipedia things...but i have no clue whatsoever on how...nor that i intend to...(i'm below 0 on my computer knowledge... (IMG:http://ballettalk.invisionzone.com/style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) )

I'm not a Wikipedia person, but -- just in case someone out there IS -- here's a sample of how Pacific Northwest Ballet does it:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacific_Northwest_Ballet

MCB deserves something equivalent. I know we have computer-literate readers at the company -- so, how about it?

(While you're at it, please replace the term "helming" and put in something more appropriate for the job that Edward Villella does. )

Just checked the Wikipedia for MCB and found that all of the additions made earlier this year are gone. Might be a good time to update anyway because of the promotions and new season info.
