Regarding this edit I feel I should explain my rationale for calling on Wiktionary here for disambiguation. While I am aware that Wikipedia is not a dictionary I always feel uncomfortable when a term referring to a specific concept is only covered in Wikipedia by particular entities, such as schools and bands. To my knowledge, Wikipedia currently contains no information regarding the aesthetic concept of "eurythmie", as alluded to in the second paragraph of this section of the William-Adolphe Bouguereau page ("the eurythmie of the human body preoccupies him"). The pertinent definition cited in the OED of "a graceful proportion and carriage of the body" dates back at least to 1706 (in The New World of English Words). [1] Given that Bouguereau died in 1905, and Steiner's discipline was "born in 1911", this usage must not be confused with the main subject of the present page (even though it is reasonable to suspect that it may have been this particular concept that Steiner was primarily referencing ). Although all the main definitions listed in the OED (and Wiktionary) invariably recall the Ancient Greek etymology, the information that "the term was used by [Ancient] Greek and Roman architects to refer to the harmonious proportions of a design or building" does not really cover the concept.

I agree that we have to be careful about selecting reliable sources -- the Weil source may indeed be doubtful -- but where material is sourced to peer-reviewed, mainstream academic presses, we should also report these without artificial qualifications. HGilbert ( talk) 12:12, 12 April 2014 (UTC)
There are obvious influences from ballet and Tai Chi, although no mention of those in the article. Doing a search I found that QuackWatch mentions those influences too, but is that considered a realiable source? 76.10.128.192 ( talk) 22:31, 8 October 2015 (UTC)
