The Beatles To-do: You can HELP!:
As the project is currently just starting, our more experienced editors are working on the project infrastructure, classifying articles, and listing/assessing red links. Your assistance is welcome. If you would prefer to just edit - and why wouldn't you? - we have a choice selection of red links to turn blue and articles to clean! Now let's get busy.
Full list & instructions.
- Lists to complete:
- Wanted Pics/Graphics: Mal Evans, Flying (song), Astrid Kirchherr, Jimmy Nicol, Cynthia Powell, Alistair Taylor, Ivan Vaughan, Tittenhurst Park, Tony Barrow. We need a better open-licenced photo for the project, to replace the Abbey Road crossing. If you provide a photo, please remove the ReqPhoto tag from the article's talk page and remove the article from this list.
- Project Discussions: The Beatles history, Individual songs vs longer album articles, Beatle wives, Merge/split proposals
- Project: Add {{WPBeatles}} to the talk pages of all Beatles-related articles. Send a newsletter to members, canvas for new members, and coordinate tasks. Enter articles classed as stubs into this list (under To Expand) and also list articles needing cleaning and other work here.
If you complete one of these tasks, please remove it from the list and add your achievement to the project log.

[edit] Re: cleanup
I am disappointed that edits to this article have been largely superfluous, or appear to have missed the point (such as the removal of the Goldman reference as "not a reliable source", when the reference itself already noted that the point was unsupported; it was mentioned merely as a background detail).

An article about a stillborn? GoodDay 23:58, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
- An article about the lost child of a famous couple, commemorated on record (Life With the Lions and the Wedding Album pressbook), remembered in interviews (including Lennon Remembers), and discussed in biographies (The Ballad of John and Yoko, Come Together). Conceiving and losing this baby were critical points in Lennon and Ono's lives and relationship. Zephyrad 05:34, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
- It should be merged with the John Lennon article. GoodDay 18:08, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
- I completely disagree. On what grounds should it be merged? Shouldn't it be half-merged with the Yoko Ono article, then, by the same token? (Takes two parents...) Zephyrad 22:08, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
