Problem editing

Started writing this page, but had to give up because the editing function wasn't working. There's lots of useful links in hidden text if anyone wants to continue it. Lampman (talk) 19:03, 13 October 2011 (UTC)

Release date wrong?

This album was released in 2011, but the sidebar mentions March 2012 as the release date. I am not sure where this date comes from. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.229.216.81 (talk) 16:32, 23 April 2017 (UTC)

Video clip referenced on arrest of Dmitry Bogatov

This video clip posted from Bogatov's IP-Address (a Tor (anonymity network) exit node) was part of the explanation for his arrest in Russia.

To substantiate the need of Bogatov's arrest investigator pointed to video showing "mass riots and police disobedience". The only one video posted by Airat Bashirov is a music clip of hip-hop performers Kanye West and Jay-Z "No Church in The Wild". --https://freebogatov.org/en/

Another post linked to the music video for Kanye West’s “No Church in the Wild,” described by investigators as “a video recording with insubordination to the legal demands of the police, and mass disorder.” --https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2017/04/access-now-and-eff-condemn-arrest-tor-node-operator-dmitry-bogatov-russia

This kind of impact of this clip should be mentioned in the article, to contrast the praise for its aesthetics.

Songs Critical of Religion

Should this article be added to the category "Songs Critical of Religion"? If one reads its lyrics online, one may well feel it should. YTKJ (talk) 14:24, 2 December 2022 (UTC)
