I'd say you should. If Wiki's people decide that there's too much information from a primary source, they'll quite likely delete the article altogether. That, needless to say, would probably be kind of bad.
Exactly.
Also, "wikifascists" isn't exactly constructive language. Without a decent, impartially applied conflict of interest policy, Wikipedia would undoubtedly suffer:
having regularly encountered blatant violation of wikipedia policy by long-term wikipedia editors when i've endeavoured to provide accurate technical information where highly-technical articles were clearly wrong or completely lacking, i feel i'm entitled to use the term accurately.... despite it not being very nice.
i won't provide evidence of what happened because one of the incidents was down to accidental anonymity (on my part - i simply forgot to log in). the attacks on that "anonymous IP address" were so violent that i have absolutely no intention of letting the wikifascists who attacked the "anonymous" technical contributions know who i am.
btw just to be *absolutely clear* i'm using "Definition 2" as outlined here: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=fascist certainly not Definitions 1 or 3!
