Please do not add minor or self-published works, works where the Rising briefly features, works where it is mentioned, or wrestling moves named after it. In particular, PLEASE DO NOT add the Cranberries' "Zombie", which has been added countless times and removed each time because it only has a passing, oblique, two-word reference not even using the words "Easter" or "Rising". --> * "[[Easter, 1916]]", a poem by the poet and playwright [[W.
