I have a feeling that this is just a random edit that someone made, so I'm going to go ahead and change it back. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.180.191.131 (talk) 15:42, 18 April 2012 (UTC)
Gamer
Marilyn Manson's "Sweet Dreams" is used in the movie "Gamer" but isn't listed in the filmography section of the page. Could we get this added?
(Later edit) The cover of "Sweet Dreams" is also featured in the remake film House on Haunted Hill (1999).

Manson's song Disposable Teen's was used for TNA Wrestler Christopher Daniels theme song for a short while, lyrics were not included as it was the instrumental version. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.132.149.172 (talk) 23:37, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
Splatter Sisters
Veteran producer Edward R. Pressman and filmmaker David Gordon Green are teaming to produce Adam Bhala Lough's retro slasher film "Splatter Sisters," with Marilyn Manson and Evan Rachel Wood attached to star. variety.com --MishaelNSK (talk) 16:55, 18 May 2010 (UTC)
Genre
Marylin Manson isn't classic rock... he's Industrial Metal.
- Yes, Manson isnt Rock, he is Metal, a lot of subgenres but Metal in general — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hellspriest (talk • contribs) 05:45, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
- He is as the article currently says, Industrial Metal, Glam Rock, Industrial Rock, it depends on his album really as the genre's differ from each one. Born Villain is Industrial Metal, and just to throw my opinion in is bloody fantastic. In this article here it claims that his genre is "suicide death metal" which is hilariously wrong. In my experience people who call it that usually have no knowledge of these genre's of music. I'm not even sure that's a genre name that's used. --Nikolai508 (talk) 14:01, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
Appearances in Other Media
Manson was one of the characters regularly caricatured in the British TV Series "Bo Selecta". Would have added this to the main article, but it appears uneditable? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.188.147.34 (talk) 08:19, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
I don't see why the article can't be edited. I'm able to edit. I will add it for you if you can't.--Artsupplymannequin (talk) 18:57, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

External Link Request
I suggest that a link to http://www.nachtkabarett.com/Grotesque be added to the external links portion of this page, as it is considered an official Marilyn Manson page, and in fact, is endorsed by Manson himself. It deals in-depth with the meanings and sources of all the symbolism and metaphorical images throughout Manson's body of work. For proof that Manson promotes this site and its "Babalon" forums, see: http://www.nachtkabarett.com/Update/83:MarilynManson-com-Announces-Babalon-as-Official-BBS.

Second foot note : it's season 2 episode 18 "Prehistoric Ice Man" instead of episode 219 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.239.139.168 (talk) 17:56, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
third footnote, should be Family Guy, season 5, episode 4, not 504. There aren't 504 episodes in season five o.0 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Erkferrari (talk • contribs) 23:40, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

discography..
i'm pretty positive there is an album that's been missed out; 'Smells Like Children'
i own this album myself, and am just wondering why it hasn't been included anywhere?
it was clearly a key part in the bands style development.. and was also a very early product of theirs.. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.147.246.163 (talk) 23:34, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
- I think the album wasnt included because it has only full-lenght albums, and Smells Like Children is an EP. Hellspriest (talk) 05:22, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Edit request from Mrjack465, 16 January 2011
{{edit semi-protected}}
Under Music, Please remove:In 2010 Manson was featured in the Motionless in White song, "London in Terror".
There are no sources that can validate that Manson appeared in the song. The song does not credit him as a contributor. Also, as a person very familiar with Manson, I can confidently say that Manson's voice appears no where in the song. Mrjack465 (talk) 12:34, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
Done There was no source provided, so per WP:BURDEN, the statement was removed unless a source can be found. Stickee (talk) 13:49, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

Incorrect High School
Cardinal Gibbons High School is listed incorrectly, he actually graduated from GlenOak High School in Canton, Ohio in 1987. I believe the incorrect information is coming from an article that was in the Sun Sentinel May 26, 2009. A correction was published the following day (May 27, 2009) with the correct high school.

We were reading Annie Lennox's page which linked to Androgyny. If anyone should be included on the Androgyny list it is Marilyn Manson.
173.77.137.131 (talk) 04:02, 3 July 2011 (UTC)
Not done: Thanks for the opinion, but Wikipedia should only include information based on reliable sources. If you have a reliable source linking Manson and androgyny, please list it here. Qwyrxian (talk) 06:50, 4 July 2011 (UTC)
Hello, I see in the section "Appearances in other media" that the Metalocalypse episode is called "Regionklok", this is not correct as it is called "Religionklok". You can see this at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Metalocalypse_episodes, it is season 1 episode 15. Could someone please correct this? Thanks 41.240.9.161 (talk) 11:31, 16 August 2011 (UTC)
Politics
Entry should include a section on Brian's political views - namely his support for Republican candidates. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.7.118.70 (talk) 13:36, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
Yeah, I know, it's so weird... He's got these (and I'm NOT being sarcastic here) ultra anti-Christian, anti-religion, anti-family, anti-fascist, anti-G-d, anti-racist ways so much so that you'd think he'd be a Social Democrat or even a Socialist, but no... Turns out he's like a hyper-ultra-mega-capitalist-conservative Republican! Ha! Who'd have thought? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 120.149.119.227 (talk) 06:34, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
Marilyn Manson is not seeing Evan Rachal Wood
The relationship has ended between Brian Warner and Evan Rachal Wood, even though they reconciled this year the two have split and she is currently seeing Jamie Bell and Brian Warner is currently seeing a woman who's name will be disclosed for her privacy. According to sources related to Warner, he is " happily involved and is truly in love".

Childhood molestation?
The article claims, under 'Early Life', that "The environment in his childhood made him vulnerable to further abuse and he was molested several times by a neighbor" -- there is no evidence of him being molested, let alone several times, in his autobiography, if this sentence follows on from the previous; and if not, then what evidence is there of him having suffered child sexual abuse? Citation needed? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.36.52.53 (talk) 13:43, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
Awards
I added a short awards section. Anything else anyone has is welcomed. I think an artist should be noted for their awards/nominations. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Xffactor (talk • contribs) 19:42, 28 May 2012 (UTC)
Josh Saviano
Maybe add a "see also" for Josh Saviano? Just to get a mutual linking. Ssredg (talk) 23:33, 23 June 2012 (UTC)
- The Josh Saviano thing is nothing but a rumor from the 1990s. It would get a link if it were more notable (on the same level as, say, the Paul is dead rumor) or if there were some truth behind it (The 27 Club is a good example. Connection or not, all those artist did die at the age of 27). In any case, this would be something more reserved for a gossip magazine, or on a fansite for either person, not Wikipedia.

eponymous
I think M. Manson, the individual person, is eponymous, not the band. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jive Dadson (talk • contribs) 04:07, 12 August 2012 (UTC)
Not his stage name
"Brian Hugh Warner, under stage name Marilyn Manson" this is not true. His name was legally changed to Marilyn Manson a long long time ago. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.10.159.159 (talk) 08:09, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
Relationships
Why aren't Rachelle or Missi mentioned under relationships/private life? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.88.10.41 (talk) 09:33, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
- On Dita von Teese: 'Though she was unable to, the two kept in contact.' doesn't make sense as a sentence, and 'On his 32nd birthday, in 2001, she arrived with a bottle of absinthe, and they became a couple.' whilst I get what it's driving at is clumsily written. I don't know about the subject to re-write either, but they should be. Phunting (talk) 13:33, 5 October 2013 (UTC)
Gothic Rock?
I see it's cited now, but I must question how reliable that source is. Many people confuse Gothic rock as a fashion and not for a musical style, and I suspect that's what's happened here. Does Manson look "goth" in terms of the associated fashion? Yes, to many people that's a goth look. But does he play it musically? His primary influences seem to be post-industrial and heavy metal when you listen to the albums. He does claim to be a fan of Bauhaus and such, although I personally wonder how much of that is just for goth street cred as I can't hear it in the albums. I do admit that's a personal opinion, but let's take him at face value. Let's say he is into Gothic rock. That doesn't mean he plays it, Skinny Puppy were influenced by Bauhaus too, but no one would say they play it. Let's look at radically different bands and genres too. New wave music was an influence on Barenaked ladies, but no one would say they play it. Punk rock was largely influential on Joy Division and their earliest recordings are punk, but it's not a large enough part of their work to place it in genres. Anyway, just something to think about.
