Split

It looks like this article created by in ye olden merry times of wikipedia when nobody cared about references, now took a wrong turn. The page title suggests it as about a trivial dance move, and as such must be deleted. From its unreferenced dessription it follows that it is synonymous with cross-step.

But it slowly stared accumulating descriptions of dances called "two step. Therefore it content must be split into the corresponding individual articles and a disambiguation page must be created in its place. In particular, in moshing there is a move, called "two step", which is "a running–in–place motion in which legs are crossed over one another". --Altenmann >talk 17:44, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I fully agree. One of the articles could be about the pre-ragtime dance form that is mentioned in the ragtime article. Apparently a lot of ragtime pieces were two-steps. Gutten på Hemsen (talk) 01:40, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
