[edit] GA Re-Review and In-line citations

Members of the Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles are in the process of doing a re-review of current Good Article listings to ensure compliance with the standards of the Good Article Criteria. (Discussion of the changes and re-review can be found here). A significant change to the GA criteria is the mandatory use of some sort of in-line citation (In accordance to WP:CITE) to be used in order for an article to pass the verification and reference criteria. Currently this article does not include in-line citations. It is recommended that the article's editors take a look at the inclusion of in-line citations as well as how the article stacks up against the rest of the Good Article criteria. GA reviewers will give you at least a week's time from the date of this notice to work on the in-line citations before doing a full re-review and deciding if the article still merits being considered a Good Article or would need to be de-listed. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us on the Good Article project talk page or you may contact me personally. On behalf of the Good Articles Project, I want to thank you for all the time and effort that you have put into working on this article and improving the overall quality of the Wikipedia project.

[edit] Just US/UK?

The articles on the Beach Boys' albums are very good, but the mentioning of just US and UK chart positions is frustrating. 165.146.150.108 17:28, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Voted 'best' etc.

Also, their positions in those depressing lists of best albums is pretty irrelevant. Perhaps just a mention that they are highly regarded, if they are. If anyone really wants the lists mentioned, they could be footnotes. 165.146.150.108 17:39, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Font on the cover

Anyone knows the name of the famous font used on the cover?

[edit] Bob Dylan and George Martin Quotes:

I used Brian Wilson's actual site as a source for both quotes since they may be found there. The Dylan quote is listed as sourced in Wikiquote (to Newsweek in 1997). A check shows that Dylan was interviewed in the October 6, 1997 issue of Newsweek, but I do not have the means to affirm that this was said in that interview.

If Brian's own site is not to be trusted as a source, then by all means revert to the citation needed version of the page.

[edit] Merge

Can we remove the merge tag from this article now? From what I can see there has been no discussion, even though it has been tagged for ages. It seems unlikely that we will get any consensus.Mumby 10:38, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Group members

Could we split the personnel into group members and others? I'm trying to enter the 40th Anniversary edition into my CD database and believe it or not I don't know who was in the group at the time :) --kingboyk 13:39, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

That's a good idea. I went ahead and broke up the "personnel" section into two parts: band members and session musicians. piper108 16:43, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Columbia Studios, Hollywood

Can't find much about this on the web... Was it Columbia Pictures (i.e. the film studios), or Columbia Records? --kingboyk 18:18, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The Beatles' miscellanea

Check The Beatles' miscellanea to see if there is anything in it you can use. A lot of 'miscellanea' needs to be trimmed (as linked articles are improved) so please feel free to use anything before certain sections get zapped into the ether... ThE bEaTLeS aka andreasegde 16:30, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
