Dancing to death

How does this even work? Is it just death from exhaustion? Brutannica (talk) 18:43, 29 May 2013 (UTC)

This is actually a ballet, so not necessarily based on 100% fact? But it can even work like this, allegedly. Martinevans123 (talk) 19:57, 29 May 2013‎ (UTC)

Infobox

The Rite of Spring
File:NikolaiRoerichRite1.jpgPart of Nicholas Roerich's designs for Diaghilev's 1913 first production
Native title	Template:Lang-ru Template:Lang-fr
Choreographer	Vaslav Nijinsky
Music	Igor Stravinsky
Premiere	29 May 1913 (1913-05-29) Théâtre des Champs-Élysées
Original ballet company	Ballets Russes
Design	Nicholas Roerich

Why doesn't this article have an infobox? I propose that we add either {{Infobox ballet}} (see example with suggested content, above) or, if that is not deemed suitable, {{Infobox musical composition}}. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 14:03, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

"Why" is not important. This looks good to me ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:10, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

ps: Isn't the native title in Russian? - The French one of the premiere is just above in the pic caption, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:13, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

Thank you. I've changed to show both common non-English names. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 14:18, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

Can we add the two-letter language abbreviation somehow, or say otherwise that it is Russian and French? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:39, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

Done. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 14:44, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

{{Infobox ballet}} is completely inappropriate and very misleading. This article is about the musical composition, not a specific ballet with a specific choreographer. Although the Nijinsky choreography was the one used at the premiere, and is the most famous, this work has been choreographed by many others. Observe the way this issue is appropriately handled at Romeo and Juliet (Prokofiev) and the related articles on the ballets using that music. Voceditenore (talk) 15:07, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

Alternative

The Rite of Spring

Here's an alternative, using {{Infobox musical composition}}. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 15:13, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

!Voting

Oppose any infobox. This was discussed back in December 2012 (see Archive 2) and the clear consensus was to NOT include any sort of infobox (80% against any box). Ruhrfisch _><>° 15:17, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

The fact that this was discussed before, by small number of editors, does prevent a new discussion, especially with different editors involved. The December 2012 discussion also seems to have been misdirected by false claims ("it it a long-standing convention that Classical Music articles in general... do not have an infobox", etc.).
