Hi Colby -- welcome to Wikipedia. When I was new here I didn't know how this place worked, either; one of the things new editors learn is that they can't add their own analysis unless backed up by sources. See the

original research policy, which is what we have to go by. (A little reflection will show you that this is the only possible way that an enormous encyclopedia could be written by anonymous people -- since all conflicts can then be resolved using reliable external sources.) Several of us have removed your assertion from the Milton Babbitt article. What you need to do is make your case on the talk page of the article rather than in the article itself -- your last edit attempts to argue within the article itself, where thousands of visitors will see what is essentially a comment about the article itself and its editors. If you can find a reliable published source that indicates that Babbitt intended the title to be "Who cares if you listen" then please say so on the article's talk page.

Please do not attack other editors, as you did at Talk:Milton Babbitt. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. Acroterion (talk) 00:18, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Who Cares if You Listen has been proposed for deletion

WP:OR page about a single magazine article which is already covered on the author's Wikipedia page
