To-do list for The Who:	edit · history · watch · refresh
Fix the subsections, make a "history" section and add the first five sections there. Y Done In the discography section, remove the covers of the albums and make a simple list or maybe a table, see Wikipedia:Manual of Style (lists of works). Y Done All the quotes in the "quotes" sections needs a reference. Y Done If a date doesn't include month and day, don't link anything, for example: "...Live at Leeds album, on which, recently, the entire 1970 concert is now..." 1970 shouldn't be linked. Egogola 18:04, 1 August 2007 (UTC) Y Done Remove the see also section, incorporate the link in the body of the article. Y Done The article is way too long (62 kb), you need to move the "performance" and "in the studio" sections to new articles. Y Done Remove most of the external links. See Wikipedia:External links. Use the Template:cite web instead of those links. Add pictures (there is currently only one). Add all of The Who's singles to The Who's singles template and place the template on all of the singles pages. Xnux the Echidna 02:51, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
