Personally, my attitude is live and let live. However, you guys shouldn't be surprised if someone comes along and deletes the full text of the poem. Wikipedia isn't generally considered the place for such things. Just thought You oughta know. -Dhodges 23:35, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Is the fact that a Whitman poem was used in a commercial really all that relevant to encyclopedic content? I would propose deleting the section, but I'll wait for other opinions.

Well, seeing as how the commercial is being seen in two countries and people are probably googling the poem, I'd say it is relevant.--Kross ^Transmit? 03:23, 28 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Its pretty common for songs by modern artists to have a mention on their pages when they are used in an advertisement. unless you make it wikipedia wide, I say its relevant. Plus, its not like there is too much content in this article. Lucifer-oxy (talk) 16:52, 11 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Relevant. I've never heard of the poem until it was used in the Levi's commercial and it took me quite some time to find the full text. Glad it's here. Kar98 (talk) 05:26, 28 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I think some balance is called for; we aren't suppoised to bring every commercial to life and relevancy. I predict less than 6 months from now, no one will remember the commercial. Let the reference stay for now, and work on finding critical essays on the poem, themes, meanings, etc. Then we can stop shilling for Levis. - 207.181.229.217 (talk) 06:10, 14 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
