  • Note that even if permission were to be obtained, the text would need to be substantially re-written. The previous version of article was written like an advertisement. Especially inappropriate were the contact addresses, etc. These are obtainable in the external link to the theater's official web site. They don't belong in an encyclopedia article. Nor do peacock terms. Voceditenore (talk) 07:50, 28 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The material can only be added once the proper procedures are followed to document permission. See the links in the above notice for how to do this. Having said that, it may still require extensive editing to conform to encyclopedic style and format. And there must be no hint of advertising in it.

No Geodata[edit]

What gives? How could it be added? Hobbitschuster (talk) 05:09, 27 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
