CREATE THIS PAGE edit
This show has premiered, so create this page already! I tried a few months ago and some mod or something deleted it saying it was a made up conspiracy and not relevant or some garbage. Tom1819 (talk) 00:54, 24 April 2017 (UTC)
Somebody please create this page; I did it already, spent hours putting something together, and some mod just deleted the whole thing and said it was copyright's violation... so not doing it again... Maybe another mod can bring back what I did in the past?? Estebanpirazo (talk) 17:56, 25 April 2017 (UTC)

- Hi, Justlettersandnumbers, I contacted Cirque du Soleil directly regarding your comment about the material found on their webpage being copyrighted, and their answer is that the material on those pages is part of their press releases, and free to use if needed. I actually explained them what I used their information for, and they answered they have no problem with me using it in the creation of the Wikipedia page for the Cirque du Soleil show Volta. Please let me know how to proceed in this case, to reinstate the Wikipedia page I have created, and let me know if you need me to forward you the e-mail I received directly from them stating this material is free to use. The page I created also has several other references to independent material that are free to use for the creation of the Wikipedia page of this show. Thanks.
