Jerry Cantrell has got on the record saying, ":"We [surviving members of Alice in Chains] are not interested in any of this. That woman's book [Rubio - Get Born Again] is a shame. She never met Layne or anyone close to the band, she forced herself on Layne's mother when she was in a very vulnerable state. They're not allowed to use any Alice in Chains Songs or any other material. So I guess it's gonna be a fu***** peace of s***!" [1] Bearing this in mind, I think it should be deleted.

Former colleagues or family members of a book's subject don't have any veto over whether an encyclopedia should have an article on the book. Being a "fucking piece of shit" doesn't stop it from being a notable topic, with multiple reviews such as the MTV one cited in the article and this one in Billboard.
