Issues

[edit]

Added a link to Adequate Seven, a UK band with an album named after this. Hope this isn't out of place here... Mikekelly 23:34, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

A Dream links so the song by Common_(rapper). How would you suggest fixing this? JamieKeene 12:10, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What is the point of having a word in this article link back to the same article?
A poison Tree is another poem of blake, and it should not be redirecteed to this page. Ganesh Dhamodkar 04:15, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Musical settings

[edit]

The "Musical Settings" section is too long compared to the other sections, given how it is not as relevant to the poetry itself and yet is the lengthiest part of the article. The sections labeled "Songs of Innocence" and "Songs of Experience," on the other hand, are underdeveloped and could be lenghtened. Also, there should be a section or more information on how Blake illustrated the poems, given how the illustrations work with the poems and often add to them.

I agree with the above user - I plan to add a list of poems in Songs of Innocence (to mirror the list in Songs of Experience), rework the lead of this article, and add a section regarding the art. I am also considering adding an analysis section and relocating the paragraph analyzing the collection from the lead. Sorrysosorry (talk) 18:50, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with these changes. :) Kbrewer36 (talk) 14:35, 25 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Maintenance message

[edit]

I removed the maintenance message at the top of this article from 2015. It flagged this page as having original research and insufficient citations. I think those issues have been remedied at this point - if you disagree feel free to re-add a maintenance message. Sorrysosorry (talk) 20:01, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
