We should include the origin of the Dragon Dance, even if the origin is just a legend.
I am currently reading Jia/The Family (家) by Ba Jin, and in this there is a chapter where a dragon dance is performed for the family, and they attack the dragon dancers with fire tubes that shoot hot coins at the dancers. Why was this done? Was it a common practice? If so, could someone write an entry about it for this article. Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.98.170.140 ( talk) 09:26, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
I can't seem to find sources for the kind of dragon dances now performed in old Chinese texts, so how old exactly is dragon dance? The dragon dances in old sources are different from the modern one. If anyone has sources that can give an idea of how old it is it'll be much appreciated. I seem to vaguely remember that it isn't very old, but a source would be useful.

A link describing the dragon dance figure as a giant puppet has been removed by an editor. Please explain to me how this animated and dancing figure, controlled by puppeteers holding rods, is not a puppet? The dragon dance figure is many things, but it is also a puppet as described in the WP article Puppet#Rod puppet. Storye book ( talk) 18:33, 20 December 2021 (UTC)
