message: Removed "Neon Bible is named after The Neon Bible, the first work of John Kennedy Toole, better known as the author of A Confederacy of Dunces." I've read secondhand remarks from the band, though not citation worthy, that the titles are a coincidence. If anyone can back either side of the claim up, it would be appreciated.

replies: text: I re-added it. The booklet states that IT IS named after the novel. --ThrowingStick/Talk 21:01, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with Blur, that doesn't suggest it to me either. I think it should be removed again. Robixsmash 19:29, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

text: I took the part out about the booklet stating that it is named after the novel. My booklet's wording does not suggest that, and it is not true. So if anyone wants to put it back in, I would be grateful if he let me know what his booklet says.Blur4760 00:09, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Someone added an NME review (9/10), but I can neither find the review anywhere on the website, nor did the editor provide a link.  Thoughts?  64.81.146.219 01:28, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: NME Review?

message: I've noticed that it says that the hinged box contains a 32 page booklet created by the band and also 2 flipbooks. Apparently, I think the 2 flipbooks are the 32 page booklet. I've bought the limited edition and it came with the 2 flipbooks, a booklet with lyrics, and the CD. I couldn't find a 32 page booklet like it was advertised, so it must be those flipbooks. --SkinnerIJA 09:50, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I have the deluxe hinged box. However, mine is the european pressing, and it differs from yours - i have a booklet with lyrics, and in the corners of it there are images that animate as you flip the booklet, but I only have the one booklet, and not two additional flipbooks. --ThrowingStick/Talk 19:01, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Turns out there a deluxe-er one, which i purchased today. It comes in a paper box, which contains the aforementioned booklet, two flipbooks, and the cd, the cd being in a plastic sleeve. Since i now own both versions, i'll do a side-by-side pic and add it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by ThrowingStick (talk • contribs) 17:35, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Couldn't this page be moved to Neon Bible, and the novel to The Neon Bible? It's possible, sure, but does it make sense to anyone as it does to me? 83.130.34.232 09:16, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

message: *Not GA related, but "No Cars Go" is one of the weirdest songs I've heard in a while...yeah...
*Those claims by IGN, NME, etc. in the lead should probably be cited
*"The band additionally" - overuse of "the band", use some other phrases eg. "They" and "Arcade Fire"
*Later half of first para of Production section could do with sourcing
*"with Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, and Elvis Presley being cited as influences, with" - can we use a different word?
*"reading the French fable allegedly written by 17th century French " - overlinking of French
*"On his blog, Win Butler quipped" - source for the quote?
*The reception section could do with expansion. It barely mentions reviewer comments, etc.

text: Besides the with sentence, which I have no major issues with, I have completed everything. I think the reception section should be fine, but if further commentary is needed there is a fair number of reviews I have yet to cite. Besides that, there is an inconsistency in linking of publishers in the refs, but I will get to that. Cheers, SorryGuy  Talk  02:34, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

message: This page is in the "Concept Album" category and is identified as a concept album.  Regine said in an interview on Austin City Limits that this album was not planned to be a concept album but seemed to admit that it was one.  At the same time this article says that the there is the theme of an American looking at America as an outsider.
What I am getting at is that I think that someone should categorically state that this is a concept album and extrapolate with some of the evidence I provided above.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.150.251.162 (talk) 17:17, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

message: Should a covers section be added for this song, or perhaps a new page?  I only know of two though (with links and both artists have articles in wikipedia as well) Peter Gabriel and Sara Lov.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.55.57.235 (talk) 21:45, 2 September 2011 (UTC)
