Description

I have put a programme on the website which includes The Waggle of the Kilt. The my.strathspey.org website does not generate a diagram for this dance. However, the Scottish country dance dictionary website (https://www.scottish-country-dancing-dictionary.com) does have a diagram. Could you please add it to your website. Also, I submit a lot of programmes to your website. I cannot delete these programmes once they are over. Can you tell me how to delete a programme.

Thank you for your help. Your website is amazing.

Regards,

Brian Martin

Note that there are two dances with very similar names – this dance and the considerably more popular The Waggle O' The Kilt by James B. Cosh. The Scottish Country Dancing Dictionary features an entry for the latter, with a diagram, and so does our site (with the same diagram, thanks to Keith Rose). My guess would be that you’re really after the Cosh dance.

You can delete dance lists using the “Delete List” entry of the “Manage” pop-up menu on the list’s editing page. But as far as I’m concerned, there’s no problem with leaving them in the database – they take up hardly any space and it would be interesting to keep a historical record of dance programmes for statistics. I have dance lists not just for events but also for every class I teach, and I find it very convenient to be able to tell exactly when a dance came up on a previous programme.
