Potential source[edit]

http://www.allmusic.com/album/unleashed-mw0002947847 should be included as it has a review and is a prominent site. Walter Görlitz (talk) 21:59, 4 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The Resistance[edit]

This is the third single to chart on the Mainstream Rock chart, as far as I know according to the reference here [1], and even though the sources highlights them as listing a lyric video, they literally state that it is being promoted to rock radio, which is sufficient to note that it is a single! I don't know, just my thoughts. It's not like it's just the Hot Christian Songs chart where downloads and streams are enough for a song to chart. EDIT: This post from HardDrive also lists it as a single.[2] Daerl (talk) 01:19, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't see "The Resistance" being discussed on the Billboard source, but this one is clear. Walter Görlitz (talk) 03:50, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Here's another source from WCPR-FM that I found stating the song being a single without mentioning the lyric video. But before I add the single and reference it with the source, may I ask whether the source is fine first, Walter?[3] Daerl (talk) 01:34, 21 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I Want to live[edit]

Hello, I from Russian Wikipedia. In an article in Russian about the album it is written that the song «I Want to Live» was inspired by the recording of a Russian fan by John Cooper, about her problems: depression, humiliation at school and thoughts of suicide. And this song was composed by John Cooper during a walk around Moscow, during a tour of the country. The source for written in RuWiki is. Question: will this information be significant for the English Wikipedia? Bogolub (talk) 23:03, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Bogolub: If I understand you correctly, the Russian-language version of the song's article has a statement about Cooper writing the song about Moscow. If it has a reliable source, it could be added to the English project as well. If not, I would suggest removing it from the Russian article instead (or at least tagging it).

@Walter Görlitz: No, John Cooper did not write about Moscow (translating so translated your text), and came up with a chorus of the song walking around . He in a live interview with an online translator of the Russian community of the official Skillet group on the social network VK.com admitted that some songs were written by the fans of the group, in which the fans wrote about their life problems. The song "I Want to Live" is an example. I hope you got what I meant =) Here is the translated text from RuWiki: To write some songs, Skillet was inspired by their fans. So, for example, John decided to write the track "I Want to Live" after one night, after a concert in Russia, their fan gave a letter to the group in which she talked about her life. She suffered from depression, she was laughed at in school and she even thought about suicide, but Skillet's music made her want to live. "I was really impressed with this line:" I want to live "", - John recalls. Chorus for the song Cooper wrote when he wandered the streets of Moscow. Translation was through Google translator.

Thanks. It's entirely unsourced. Unless there's a reliable source to support this statement, it should not be added. Walter Görlitz (talk) 00:12, 30 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
A source from RuWiki at an interview with AXS is not authoritative? Bogolub (talk) 04:40, 30 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It would be, if it existed in the Russian-language article. Since it's not in that article, perhaps you could link it here. Walter Görlitz (talk) 06:30, 30 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Do you mean that I can insert this entry from RuWiki into the source of this article? Can make the section "Interesting Facts" and write down? I do not understand yet. I just have a Russian man with English language bad. = ( Bogolub (talk) 08:59, 30 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I wrote that this article on the Russian Wikipedia article does not contain a reference to AXS about this song. Where is the article that references this statement? Where is the reference itself? Walter Görlitz (talk) 06:19, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Will this source come to RuWiki? - [1] Bogolub (talk) 10:48, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the source. The article says that the chorus was written while walking the streets of Moscow after a fan had given them a letter suggested that she was about to commit suicide. There isn't a discussion about the song in the article so someone would have to write that. The content could go in a section about the song, but it doesn't make much sense outside of that sort of a discussion. Walter Görlitz (talk) 00:36, 2 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
