Could someone add information on the music Brian enters the game to (if he is accompanied by music)? In fact, that seems like something that should be standard on all closer's pages. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.176.255.115 ( talk) 18:55, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

Under the main header, Wilson's birthplace is listed as "Londonderry, NH" (supported by yahoo sports) whereas the info bar on the right of the column cites "Winchester, MA" (as supported by mlb.com). Regards. Mercjfr ( talk) 14:35, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
It seems like a lot of space is devoted to "The Machine" in this article. Not sure if this is really warranted. But ok. However, the reference that The Machine is a character in the "S&M" and "Snuff" film 8mm is a) incorrect and b) defamatory. 8mm is a major Hollywood movie starring Nicolas Cage, not an S&M and certainly not a "snuff" film. It deals with its subject matter in a serious and thoughtful manner; it is not an exploitation film. The plot of 8mm does deal with characters who themselves are engaged in the demi-monde of nuff films, and there is a character known as "Machine". But the article as written suggests that Wilson is referencing the actual world of snuff films, and finding them funny. And that is defamatory. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.231.240.151 ( talk) 04:19, 8 May 2011 (UTC)
Is any reference to "the Machine" even necessary? I do not think "the Machine" is notabile enough for mention on Wikipedia. Even if it is, I think there may be problems with the references for that section (two of them are YouTube links). Sanfranciscogiants17 ( talk) 19:14, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

The entire scouting report section needs to be fixed because someone vandalized it sometime in the past. It is nothing really major, but many of the particulars have been changed that were added by the original writer. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ntjp99 ( talk • contribs) 21:57, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
Wilson was not on the postseason roster for the 2012 World Series. You are invited to join the discussion at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Baseball#WS_champion_in_infobox to determine if World Series should be listed in a player's infobox if he was not on the team's postseason roster.— Bagumba ( talk) 02:40, 7 November 2012 (UTC)
It blows my mind that a discussion was closed preventing the inclusion of the 2012 World Series championship. Said source [1] reads that Wilson appeared in two games in the World Series before reinjuring himself. Also, you do not have to be on the 40-man playoff roster to be World champion. You just have to be on the team. Originally he wasn't on the roster because he was hurt, but he still got his team to where it was, so that doesn't count for something? There are 162 games; can't expect to be healthy all year through. How many fewer "champions" we would have following this logic? Not only, that but it is incorrect. Come on guys.

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Brian Wilson (baseball)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
