==Doo Wop==
 
"they could not have been intimidating because they sang Doo Wop songs". Doo Wop was to 1950s youth culture what hip-hop has been to more recent generations ; it was associated with African-American street culture. The author of the original article clearly lacks historical context. [[Prairie Dog]]

Indeed he had an appointment to the Naval Academy class of 1958, I believe. He left at the end of plebe summer before classes began. Most likely he did not write "California Dreamin" during this time. It would make it 1954 while most agree the song was written in '63 or so. Who has time to write a good song during plebe summer? --[[User:ProdigySportsman|ProdigySportsman]] 02:11, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

Either way, it's wrong. It has been stated many times by both John and Michelle Phillips that "California Dreamin'" was written after a walk they had taken in New York, after returning from the Virgin Islands. It was supposedly the first time Michelle had seen snow, she wasn't dressed for it. They stopped into a church to get warm, rather than to pray. Michelle was pleading to John and Denny to move to California, where she was from.[[User:Johnsmusicbox|Johnsmusicbox]] ([[User talk:Johnsmusicbox|talk]]) 23:42, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

I object to using the word consentualconsensual in the paragraph about the incest without quoting someone. The word consentualconsensual has a specific meaning, a meaning that cannot be gleaned from the misuse of the word by trash-mag People. I suggest that unless we can quote an individual saying that the relationship became consentualconsensual, we instead leave that info out.

::It's directly quoted from the source, but under the circumstances it might be best to wait till at least more orignal sources state it (not just ones that couple the people article). Since she's doing a video interview on Oprah tomorrow, it should clear things up anyway. I apologize because before I saw this on the talk page I also added the statement to Mackenzie's page, while I was adding the fact that both were under the influence of drugs during the rape (which is kind of an important fact to leave out in these circumstances). We could also add how she stated that she doesn't hate her father and doesn't want people to look down on him for it.[[Special:Contributions/24.190.34.219|24.190.34.219]] ([[User talk:24.190.34.219|talk]]) 15:46, 23 September 2009 (UTC)

::Someone who is a minor can not consent to a sexual relationship.

:::Exactly. That she uses the word "consensual" just shows her confusion. It is highly illogic of her to say the relationship was consensual AND akin to the Stockholm syndrome (see above). Therefore, we should present facts and not opinions, and I think the facts speak for themselves. Incest and abuse of a dependent person is what it is. So far for the detached point of view that befits this encyclopedia. Let me add that this sadly gives a whole new meaning to one of the Mamas and the Papas (how ironic) and that it's highly unlikely that I'll ever be able to listen to one of their songs again without thinking of this. --[[User:Bernardoni|Bernardoni]] ([[User talk:Bernardoni|talk]]) 21:48, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
 
:::According to [http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/8272229.stm this] BBC article, she claims that they started sleeping together when she was 19. She wasn't a minor. --[[Special:Contributions/121.45.160.32|121.45.160.32]] ([[User talk:121.45.160.32|talk]]) 04:52, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
 
Not to add to the argument, but I just wanted to point something out. Statements like:
 
"''she uses the word "consensual" just shows her confusion. It is highly illogic of her to say the relationship was consensual AND akin to the Stockholm syndrome... therefore, we should present facts and not opinions''"
 
Are completely irrelevant to this discussion. In fact, that statement is an opinion. It is a fact that she herself used the term, so that can be stated in the article with a source (in an example like, 'so and so stated the relationship was consensual'; not just saying 'the relationship was consensual'). No matter what any of us think if it's impossible that it was consensual or not, we can not interpret the information ourselves, that's original research. If however, an outside secondary source makes a comment on how the relationship could never really be consensual, then we can report and cite that. Basically, it makes no difference what any of us think of the situation. It is a fact to report or quote what someone said, it is an opinion to interpret quotes or words used by people (and thus against wiki policy), even if we think "''she got it wrong''".

The article on Mackenzie Phillips has [[Mackenzie_Phillips#Allegations_of_sexual_relationship_with_father|more]] on this issue. The respective paragraph in this article should be updated, too.

== Sex after death ==
 
When i got to the article today, after 24 hours away from it, i noticed that the incest allegation was under the sub-head of "Death." It made me laugh. Then i fixed it by putting in a new sub-head, "Posthumous allegation of incenst" -- which is a bit long, i know, but is accurate, while anything shorter than that would not be accurate. cat yronwode, not logged in [[Special:Contributions/64.142.90.33|64.142.90.33]] ([[User talk:64.142.90.33|talk]])
 
==Fixed "tone"==
 
The section on "After" the Mamas and Papa's had a "tone" tag. I rewrote the section and took the tag off. It now has better tone -- but still could use lots more refs. That's another issue, of course. [[User:Catherineyronwode|Catherineyronwode]] ([[User talk:Catherineyronwode|talk]]) 01:09, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
 
 
==Claim vs. allegation==
I reverted the edit of allegation from claim back to claim from allegation. Here's my reasoning:
 
*Claim: to assert in the face of possible contradiction[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allegation]
 
*Allegation: a claim of a fact by a party in a pleading, which the party claims to be able to prove.[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allegation]
 
Since MacKenzie Phillips' has admitted publically she engaged in a consensual, incestutous relationship with her father, and her father is dead and these claims cannot be proven (see definition for allegation), "claim" seems to be the better, more correct choice of terminology here. What she reports happened may be contradicted (see "claim), but it can never be proven (see "allegation") because the other party is deceased. [[User:Kelly A.

I was trying to clean up some possible vandalism surrounding this entry.
* 1969: '' John Phillips (John) Recorded at RPM Studios Johannesburg South Africa 1969
There was some commentary added that it wasn't the same John Phillips. It was completely removed, and I started to added it back minus the commentary. However I was having trouble verifying if it truly existed. Hopefully someone here with more knowledge can verify if it belongs or not.--[[User:Cube lurker|Cube lurker]] ([[User talk:Cube lurker|talk]]) 20:58, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
 
== Re: "The Mamas and the Papas" section ==
 
I found this rather difficult to follow at times. Some sentences were convoluted, while others seemed fragmented. Overall there wasn't enough information provided; there were several gaping holes in the narrative, which was rather confusing. Unfortunately I'm not sure how it could be improved. I'll think on it, I guess. But by all means go ahead if you agree with me and come up with a solution yourself. I'm not quite as, uh, "bold as some... and I'm not at all familiar with the pertaining topic. I was never a fan of early-to-mid-60's folk-pop, I always preferred the later 60's and 70's prodigies like Bridget St. John, Nick Drake, Leonard Cohen, Roy Harper. But that's beside the point. I'm just rambling. See, this is why I don't actually edit articles!

== "You could have any man you want. Why would you take mine?" ==
 
While this quote/anecdote from Michelle Phillips quoting Mama Cass is '''very''' tasty ("You could have any man you want. Why would you take mine?"), it really doesn't have anything to do with John Phillips. I am more than reluctant to remove it myself, however.

This is one of the saddest, most ill-represented articles I've ever come across on Wikipedia. This subject is regarded as one of the greatest songwriters / vocal arrangers of the 20th century. This is a travesty that clearly displays s non-NPOV toward tabloid content and trivial sensationalism. This is poorly researched and disgracefully honored. Shame.
