You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.201.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

"'''Warsaw'''" is the opening song on the EP ''[[An Ideal for Living]]'', written and performed by [[Joy Division]].<ref name="discogs">((cite web|title=Joy Division – An Ideal for Living|url=https://www.discogs.com/Joy-Division-An-Ideal-For-Living/master/28414|website=Discogs|accessdate=3 February 2018))</ref> It was slated for release on the album that became ''[[Warsaw (Joy Division album)|Warsaw]]'', which was originally scrapped by the band and not released until 1994.<ref name="AllMusic">((cite web|url=((AllMusic|class=album|id=r478591|pure_url=yes))|title=Joy Division: 'Warsaw' – Review|website=[[AllMusic]]))</ref> The song appears to be a somewhat fantastical biography of [[Rudolf Hess]], [[Adolf Hitler|Hitler]]'s [[Deputy Führer]], who flew to [[Great Britain]] in 1941 in an attempt to negotiate a peace between [[Germany]] and the [[United Kingdom|UK]], supposedly because of his disillusionment with [[National Socialism]].

==Composition==
The song starts with the mock-countoff "3 5 0 1 2 5 Go!";<ref name="Genius">((cite web|title=Warsaw - Joy Division|url=https://genius.com/2489310|website=Genius.com|accessdate=3 February 2018))</ref> "31G-350125" was Hess's [[prisoner of war]] serial number when he was captured after flying to [[Eaglesham]], [[Scotland]] during [[World War II]].<ref name="Loneliest">((cite book|last1=Bird|first1=Eugene K.|title=The Loneliest Man in the World: The Inside Story of the Thirty-Year Imprisonment of Rudolf Hess|date=April 29, 1974|publisher=Ishi Press|isbn=978-4871878807|url=https://i.ytimg.com/vi/CVhM3CwowyY/maxresdefault.jpg))</ref> 

The first verse describes Hess's involvement with Hitler in the [[Beer Hall Putsch|Beer Hall Revolution]] and his infatuation with the [[NSDAP]]. The second verse discusses his supposed disillusionment with it, and the last verse portrays his life in prison after being convicted at the [[Nuremberg Trials]]. The chorus is a simple repetition of "31G", the first three characters of his serial number. "31" signifies the European theatre of war and "G" German, the nationality of the prisoner.

==Other versions==
The song is available on a number of compilations, including ''[[Substance (Joy Division album)|Substance]]''.<ref name="substance">((cite web|title=Substance -- Joy Division|url=https://www.allmusic.com/album/substance-mw0000200321|website=AllMusic|accessdate=3 February 2018))</ref> At a performance of the song "At a Later Date" at the Electric Circus in Manchester, Guitarist Bernard Sumner shouts "You all forgot Rudolf Hess" before the song begins.<ref name="YouTube">((cite web|title=Joy Division - At a Later Date|url=https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=02UTKoEAtZs |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211212/02UTKoEAtZs| archive-date=2021-12-12 |url-status=live|website=YouTube))((cbignore))</ref>

"Warsaw" is featured in the video game ''[[Tony Hawk's Underground 2]]''.<ref name="Tony Hawk">((cite web|title=Soundtracks - Tony Hawk's Underground |url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0420981/soundtrack|website=Internet Movie Database|accessdate=3 February 2018))</ref>
