THAT ISN'T THE POINT!

They *are* evidence. Nobody is disagreeing with that. But it's ORIGINAL 
RESEARCH.  *You* calculated the probability that Watchmen serves as an 
inspiration to Bird.  It's not something Bird said. It's not something where 
your analysis appears anywhere outside of Wikipedia. That isn't how an 
encyclopedia works.

I wouldn't be surprised if Bird himself went in and wrote that he was 
inspired by Watchmen, and the comment was removed for the same reason.
