[edit] Dafoe?
Okay, the music video for Copperhead Road shows a man that looks just like actor Willem Dafoe. Does anyone know anything about this? I can't seem to find any connection to the two (other than Dafoe is famous for his vietnam movie Platoon), but I can't find any mention of the actor from the music video, either. Yet, it's driving me nuts, 'cuz I'd swear it's him. Anyone wanna take a swing at this?
[edit] RfC
I noticed this article was listed on the RfC page. Wouldn't it have been better to raise the issue on the talk page first? KeithD (talk) 18:32, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

- So the issue is about the external link that keeps being added and taken away? The external link doesn't work in my browser. Given that it's not accessible to all, it probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. I can't make any comment as to the content of it. Why do you think it should be in or out?

- The policy on external links is pretty clear: "...avoid sites requiring payment, registration, or extra applications (Flash, Java, etc.) to see the relevant content...". Also, since the link doesn't work for me, I can't tell if it's violating other parts of the policy: linking to copyvio material, for example. --Carnildo 20:14, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

Wouldn't it have been better to raise the issue on the talk page first? Yes. HOwever, when I raised the issue on the talk pages of other articles to which Scott has added such links, this was the result :-( . Andy Mabbett 20:31, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Copperhead
What can be said about this wthout speculation? It could allude both to the copper still used in moonshining and to the copperhead snake that strikes without warning, showing that you shouldn't mess with the character in the song. 86.140.108.169 01:47, 27 November 2005 (UTC)
