Talk:Rust (song)

Unsourced?
I added this to the article a while ago, and it was reverted as being 'unsourced':

"The lyrics and music for its refrain are borrowed from McCulloch's 1992 b-side song "Ribbons and Chains"."

I believe the information is relevant, and is certainly factually correct (the two songs have the same refrain - same melody and lyrics), so how can it be put back in so it will stay? I mean how (and perhaps why) does one cite a source for something that is plainly evident?

 * Without a reliable source to verify your claim it is classed as original research. Wikipedia can only accept information from reliable third party sources. --JD554 (talk) 07:07, 13 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the answer. A quick Google search finds a variety of comments about the re-use of the lyric/music, so if I cite this, for example: http://www.angelfire.com/wy2/discog/page3.html it will pass the test? Shill66 (talk) 20:42, 21 April 2010 (UTC)


 * No I'm afraid not. It would need to be from a reliable source: such as a newspaper, magagazine, etc. The website you've provided is a self-published fansite. --JD554 (talk) 07:11, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
