>>MESSAGE: OMG I JUST ACCIDENTALLY REFRESHED THE PAGE WHEN I WAS ABOUT TO HIT THE REPLY BUTTON AND MY MESSAGE WAS LONG OMG. I'LL SUM IT UP, SO SORRY IF I COME OFF AS TOO BLUNT OR UNCLEAR/RUSHED:

@ Jun

>>THANKS: Yes we do value your opinion, as I'm just a newbie. (well I just recently made the account, but I was the one who updated the Guilty Hearts members' pages when Niina and K'suke left the group.... So i've always been helping.... from a distance...)

@ Everyone

>>YT DANCERS: OMG AMAITSUKI IS SOOO GETTING A PAGE I'M EXCITED. Please forgive me, but even though we are a new dance group (only 3 months out!), is it okay if I create my own wiki page first? I don't have to do much research for it because I already know most of the answers. If I create my own page, do I still have to include references? I already know when my birthday is and such. And if I create pages for some of those I'm in contact with, do I still have to include references? For example, Florence directly told me he loves ARSMAGNA, the color green, and visual kei fashion but idk if he's posted it anywhere.

>>MASKED CATEGORY: Masked dancers it is

>>DANCE STYLES: If we put dance style catagories we should do it now before the wiki expands a lot more. More odorites are increasing in popularity... We should establish the styles and a few examples so we all get a clear understanding of them. Please tell me if you agree/disagree with these categories. (Excuse my bold, italic, capital sentence there I just wanted to make this list as easy to read as possible... I promise I'm not shouting at you!)

I BELIEVE WE SHOULD AT LEAST HAVE THESE BASICS:

~Hip hop and all subcatagories (locking, house, tutting, etc.... The main problem with hip hop is that if it includes all subcategories, you pretty much have every style out there. Hip hop originated from the combination of multiple different styles such as jazz, waack, house, and pretty much anything. That's why the main focus in hip hop is freestyling. The main definer of hip hop seems to be the combination of many different dance styles): Niina, K'suke, SLH, Project Nyantaro, Cozmosse, Tadanon, Bouto, Keitan, Maron, Tora-san (too many to count!)

~Break (it's very hard so I feel it deserves special recognition): RAB, Ryo from Guilty Hearts, Cozmosse

~Cutesy/Kawaii : Melochin, Kozue, Prince, Miume, Ryo, SLH, Bouto, Bookie (actually I think everyone does this style so it could be dropped)

~Contemporary/Traditional: Miume, K'suke, Prince, Aoi, Tora-san

~Sexy style (come up with a more professional sounding name though... the problem with this one is that it can arguably be in the same catagory as hip hop or contemporary. However, I feel like Danceroid would fit into sexy style more than contemporary or hip hop, so we can't get rid of this one): Danceroid, Miume, Reichel, 

~Waack (includes voguing, so Nyantaro would be included in this as well as hip hop. This may also be joined with the hip hop catagory)

~Idol: not sure if Musumen's new original choreo and singles are considered this or if we would consider that kawaii instead (but their dream seems to be to become idols, so it may be honoring them to put them in this category. I'm also unsure about. This should include kpop covers as well as jpop.)

~Anime: not sure if there are any odottemita dancers who specialize in this, so this can be dropped if the only things are Hare Hare Yukai and Lucky Star here and there.

Many dancers have a combination.. In ARSMAGNA, I've recognized contemporary, kawaii, and hip hop. Guilty Hearts would be kawaii and hip hop. K'suke would be every single catagory except break, waack, and anime. To solve the problem of having multiple catagories, we could only place the odorites into their specialty rather than every style they can do (K'suke would still be every single catagory except break, waack, and anime... that is one accomplished choreographer).

'>>QUESTION: ''Are there any other dancers here? Doesn't even have to be odottemita.'''

~Much love, Ris
