WP:LISTCRUFT[edit]

The greater part of this so-called article was made up of two unnecessary lists. The contents list of Last Poems was lifted from Wikisource, a link to which occurs in the lead anyway. The "Popular References" section had become a magnet for unexplained (and unreferenced) trivia. In any case, song settings do not count as such and were the only referenced items. There were several other settings and to include them I have therefore renamed that section. There is plenty of legitimate information concerning this volume available to be referenced. I suggest to future editors that they should look at the Manual of Style, and specifically at MOS:NOVELS, for guidance on how to approach literary topics and what to include.

Epitaph on an Army of Mercenaries[edit]

This poem was also set to music by Geoffrey Burgon with vocals by Gillian McPherson and was used as credit title track for the 1980 movie, "The Dogs of War". 2601:147:C380:ED40:C33:8DA4:9154:9174 (talk) 12:07, 17 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the information. Is there a reliable source you can point us to, so that it can be added to the article? Sweetpool50 (talk) 17:05, 17 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
