If JMS's stuff isn't considered canon, what is?

"Why not? Only 1 Human captain has ever survived battle with the Minbari fleet. He is behind me, you are in front of me. If you value your lives, be somewhere else."

I got curious, so I decided to look up the definition of “canon” in the dictionary. Two of the earlier definitions were:
“A regulation or dogma decreed by a church council”
“An authoritative list of books accepted as Holy Scripture”
Eek! Do I have to be baptized or something for the B5 universe?

AFAIK - yes. I've heard from other B5 license holders (namely AoG, makers of the B5W game) that they were mostly required by their license masters to keep to the things from the CD guide, even if they didn't like it too much. I'd say that's pretty good evidence for it being "canon"

If they don't like the way JMS wrote it, they shouldn't be trying to play in his universe.
