I am new to writing biographical content on Wikipedia. It would be helpful to know if there is content in the current entry that is in violation of any specific guidelines. Tjarrett 15:30, 23 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'd suggest a better source for the REM claim would really be appropriate. At this point, the reference cited is a newspaper's sports blog that indicates a number of the sources for lyrics of the songs don't even quote the lyrics as being what is claimed here. I think that's an arguable violation of WP:BLP. I'm not sure it really merits immediate removal before giving persons an opportunity to better source the claim, but it probably should be removed if a better source cannot be found.

Alas. On further research I'm finding a lot of "legend has it" and even "misheard lyrics" statements. I am sad to say I will have to retract, until maybe Michael Stipe comes clean. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Tjarrett (talk • contribs) 02:36, August 24, 2007 (UTC).
