Article Grading: The following comments were left by the quality and importance raters: (edit · refresh) There is little to this page other than some info, it's not justifiably A class but it is more than a start, so B. As a single that is not one of the defining songs by The Beatles, it's probably Low importance. Could stand review by someone more knowledgable though. ++Lar: t/c 05:11, 2 July 2006 (UTC) I've changed it to Mid importance. AFAIK, Low importance is for cruft and garbage, and very peripheral things. This is an original Harrison song on a very succesful album. OTOH, not all songs need articles and this isn't one of their most famous efforts so it's certainly no more than Mid. --kingboyk 09:35, 2 July 2006 (UTC) I've changed to Start class, as it's a bit sparse compared to articles I've been assessing as B. --kingboyk 16:32, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] George Orwell

this song makes me think of Animal Farm! What's up Dr. Strangelove 01:46, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Other

The pigs in the starched white shirts are the press. They are stirring up the dirt around them, but always remain clean themselves.

Or perhaps some backhanded reference to animal farm. original research so dont include

It is said that Piggies is alot like "Eveline" by Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli

[edit] Change from low to mid importance

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:The White Album.jpg

Image:The White Album.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] "Baroque" style?

Seems like a rather bold claim to make, and a highly opinionated one at that. Is there any reputable source to support this? Attys (talk) 00:12, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
