I don't want to change this yet on the actual file, (Template:POTD/2011-08-28) - but the caption is troublesome. This section - "and maintained a romantic relationship for nearly three years. Even after their break-up, they continued a professional relationship that has lasted to the present day" is problematic. Assumptions about the nature of the relationship between the two are tricky - and even if the first sentence is correct, the second is almost certainly not. Baez and Dylan have had no ongoing relationship of any kind since the 70s and in recent decades seem to have talked to each other only on camera to documentarians. More importantly, it seems to me that a relationship comment of any kind borders on the gossipy. The significance of the picture is that two great musical artists combined for a performance at one of the most significant public demonstrations in the history of the country - not that theywere or are or have been involved with each other. I think that this is an important point. Sensei48 (talk) 05:22, 25 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
