Hello! I'm Michaela Drapes and I’m a paid editor. I manage the digital team at the New York City Ballet in New York City.

I’ve joined Wikipedia to contribute to editing dancer biography pages and ballet synopses for works in our repertory. I’d like to work with other editors to make bio pages and synopses as clear and accurate as possible, without bias towards particular productions or companies.

I’ve read through Wikipedia’s guidelines regarding conflict of interest, neutral point of view and verifiability, and will endeavor to follow these in all of my contributions. If I make substantial changes to an article, I’ll consult the opinions of other editors on the Talk page beforehand. I also appreciate that Wikipedia is a work in progress, and have read the guidelines regarding ownership of articles.

Before editing pages directly related to New York City Ballet and its dancers, I will consult other editors via the articles' Talk pages. I’d also be happy to act as a resource for other Wikipedia editors on questions relating to New York City Ballet, its dancers and repertory – please do get in touch on my Talk page or by email.

I hope that all of my contributions are in harmony with Wikipedia’s mission and aims, and welcome any help, comments or questions from the Wikipedia community.

Cheers to OperaBalletRose for the inspiration on format from her user page.
