Edit warring

Misplaced Pages is an encyclopedia of published research from credible second and third-party sources, which means that Mark Dillon and the Newsday's observations are perfectly sound for inclusion, just as Jim Fusilli's observation that "Brian Wilson may have almost written himself in a dead hole" is, as you put it, "conjecture". Sources which make independent observations are not banned from Misplaced Pages. In this case, there are two sources for the same piece of information. Please stop edit warring the God Only Knows article and discuss on the talk page why you think the information should be excluded, and to cite which protocols you believe the text violates.
