It is not "our" organisation. You are reading an encyclopedia article, which also contains the link to the home page of the organization http://www.idta.co.uk/about.html. Mikkalai 05:27, 26 Dec 2004 (UTC)
thread_title: Request for help

message: * To expedite your request, please provide the desired claims in the form of verbatim statements which can then be added to the article (if approved) by the reviewer. The exact location where the desired claims are to be placed should also be described, as shown in the example below.
*Please add the following claim as the third sentence of the second paragraph of the Sun section:
:The Sun's diameter is estimated to be approximately 864,337 miles in length.
*Using as the reference:
:Paramjit Harinath. (2019) . Academic Press, p.1. 
* This verbatim text should be placed using your own words and phrases, per WP:CLOSEPARAPHRASE. Any text which is not properly paraphrased cannot be added to the article. Some key aspects to keep in mind about the proposed text:
# The word "new" should not be used anywhere in the text, per MOS:RELTIME.
# Claims which were the case some time ago but have since changed should not be deleted. Instead, the prior state of the claims should be mentioned along with their current status, taking care not to use the word "now" when describing current situations. In place of that word please use exact dates (or simply the year, for brevity).
# Claims which use phrasing indicating future actions or expected state of affairs (i.e., "Occurrence Z will happen in 2016..") should be re-worded if these future dates have already occurred ("In 2016, occurrence Z took place..."). Any future items which have yet to occur should be deleted, per WP:FUTURE.
# References should be placed in the text at the exact location where the information which they reference resides. These should be placed using  and  tags placed at both ends of the reference information (as shown in the example above).
* At your earliest convenience, kindly open a new edit request using the  template affixed to the top of your post, and place that post at the bottom of this talk page when ready to proceed with the verbatim text (including ref-tagged references) and the placement locations. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them here on the talk page. Be sure to include the  template to notify editors of any questions you may have. Thank you!

thread_title:  Copyright problem removed 

message: * In the fourth sentence of the opening paragraph it states that 'The IDTA also works in partnership with the Royal Academy of Dance'. This partnership ended some years back and needs to be removed.
* I'm afraid I have no source to reference this as no announcement was made when the IDTA and RAD ceased working together. However as an employee of IDTA and with sole responsibility for maintenance of the IDTA website, I was asked by the CEO to remove news of the two organisations partnership from our official channels.

message: The IDTA underwent a rebrand in 2014, including the replacement of the old logo. The logo you have is out of date and the CEO would like it replaced. What is the correct way to go about this?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gavin010914 (talk • contribs) 08:50, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
