[edit] Source Citing?

The account of his conversion is great here, and well-sourced, but could the sources be properly cited? I'm considering creating a new article specifically on his conversion and the debate surrounding it, but it would be good to know which sources to turn to so as to get the info here (and more).

[edit] In which article does Dylan's conversion belong?

The lengthy section on Dylan's conversion to Christianity is well done, but I think it's out of place here. Certainly the topic is relevant (even essential) to understanding "Slow Train Coming." But such an in-depth treatment seems more a part of Dylan's biography than a discussion of this record album. The Bob Dylan article links to this one for further infomation about his conversion. It ought to work the other way 'round. That is, this article ("Slow Train") should briefly discuss the the conversion as important context for the album, but point elsewhere (either the Bob Dylan article or another separate one) for the full story.
