[edit] Info Boxes

Look at this.... Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da Single by the Beatles?. This is a feckin joke! Vera, Chuck & Dave 17:40, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Such is life, dear Vera... one day we will all be forced to write all sentences about bob dylan, the beatles, the queen, and mr thompson - who travels on the the london underground to get to his job - like this. andreasegde 19:01, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

and chip beetle, hank beetle of the beetles, who were put together for an american tv show in burbank california, wrote most of the songs (but it was neil diamond really) and marv beetle had lots of good wholesome non drug taking fun with wacky beetle. Cheers La, Vera, Chuck & Dave 19:29, 4 April 2007 (UTC) oh, btw, a homosexual thought never crossed eppy beetle's mind.

I think I saw that show in new York, but maybe los Angeles... andreasEgde 19:32, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Were you flogging a dead Horse at the time? ;p Nah ha ha ha, topical.--Crestville 19:37, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Nah, I was thinking about world war One. It's the sh-sh-shell-shock of being attacked (ouch - don't say that word!) by my masters, and the powers That Be, or whatever. I shall now proceed to the locality of my choice. andreasegde 19:48, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

(reply to vera) nah, eppy never did nuffin 'bout his nether regions, he was too busy looking after the beetles in his underpants. andreasegde 20:03, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

That's right mr. President sir. U.S. Marshal (peanut) Presley

"U.S. Marshal (peanut) Presley". That is the weirdest name that anyone has come up with. £5 to the Mr. Peanut Presley andreasegde 00:59, 5 April 2007 (UTC) :))

Do I win £5? Him out of Last Of The Summer Wine who isn't dead yet. You know the one I mean. He does the voice of Pingu I think

That is the weakest claim you have ever made for £5. I am distraught... but still laughing... :)) andreasegde 00:59, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Do you think I've outdone myself? Do I win £5 for that? Slick Billy

In a word, no. You could start with bob-a-job though... andreasegde 11:14, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Bob-a-job! Any work you want doing mister? £5 all inclusive.--Crestville 13:00, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

You young scamp! £5 for picking the slugs off my lawn? Oh well, I suppose it's worth it, but only if you do it with your bare hands... andreasegde 16:38, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

I can't resist this: Hmmm... Cup of T, anyone?

If it's "the Beatles", the article ought to be Beatles, right? Which, of course, is nonsense... --kingboyk 14:58, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

Yeah I know, because nobody likes "Beatles", except for people in Asia, possibly. You have come to this a bit late, Kingboyk, as the civil war has died down, but I greatly appreciate your thoughts. andreasegde 18:43, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mimi Smith

I reckon this has a chance at FA and by God you're due one for all your hard work! Fancy giving it a go? (I'd be happy to make the nomination, if you don't want to). --kingboyk 01:17, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

I think you should, if you really think that it's good enough. I would be sensitive about reading all the FA comments (as we have both been through that before with Macca - ouch!) but I will probably read them. I think that I feel detached enough from it that I will be neutral about the scathing attacks. Oh, sod it - yes, I agree - go for it Kingboyk, and my best wishes. andreasegde 01:31, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

P.S. What a nice bloke you are. I wish you well. andreasegde 01:34, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

P.P.S. Mimi Smith being an FA article when John is still (and probably always will be) a B-class article? she would be laughing in her grave. Good old Mimi, she always had the upper hand... andreasegde 01:46, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

I have just had a look at it, and there are a few little things that make it seem clumsy. As I am no longer a contributor to this beatles thingy, I might just give it a wipe with a damp cloth. One doesn't like to abandon one's children, as Crestville says... andreasegde 02:02, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

Lovely. Drop me a line when you're happy with it, and I'll nominate it :) --kingboyk 11:20, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

I'm going through it, but I don't think it has much of a chance without a photo of Mimi. andreasegde 02:41, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

Just use one of Charlize Theron, no one will notice and it'll get FA DEFFO! Vera, Chuck & Dave 20:33, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

Wow. I wouldn't kick her out of bed! --kingboyk 13:31, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

I think she is one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen - and from what I've read, she is just as beautiful on the inside. Vera, Chuck & Dave 16:28, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

How about one of your fit wife? (Tee-heh... Ouch!) andreasegde 21:03, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

...Well if you insist, but there's not a lot between em though [1] Vera, Chuck & Dave 23:17, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

Photos aren't absolutely necessary for FA, but I agree that it would be nice to have a picture of her. Since she's deceased, I think this is one instance where we could get away with a fair use image. Does Google Images throw up anything we could use? --kingboyk 13:31, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

Yes, I found two or three, and one with her and John, but I have no clue how to upload them, or if I even dare. I will beg Crestville to help. andreasegde 18:45, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The George Medal

Alright our andrea? Guess wot? "the" Beatles isn't the only victim on Pediwikia, they're calling The George Medal, George Medal. The warrant states: It is ordained that the Medal shall be designated and styled "The George Medal", but I suppose George VI was wrong as well! Cheers La, Vera, Chuck & Dave 18:27, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

Jesus Woolwich Aresenal, you should stop the rot. You have the fecking' medal, but they'll probably say that that's orginal research. andreasegde 02:12, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

I've just looked at George's (FA) page, and it doesn't mention the medal once. Somebody messed up there. andreasegde 02:20, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

That's easily resolved. Do you have a reliable source for the wording of the warrant? (The article currently has the warrant saying "the George medal", but with a {{fact}} citation). All we need is the wording with a citation and if it's "The George Medal" I'll either move and modify the article myself or officially propose it at WP:RM. --kingboyk 13:34, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

Warrant: [2] Vera, Chuck & Dave 15:26, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

I doubt we could accept that website as a reliable source, tbh... --kingboyk 17:33, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

The George Medal: [3] Vera, Chuck & Dave 18:28, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

Citing Vera, who actually won one? andreasegde 18:47, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sherlock Holmes strikes again

I have a new idea about the Brian Epstein page (which I did a lot of work on before I gave up this Beatles thingy): I think that user Davidpatrick is Martin Lewis. Check out Lewis' history page, and note who makes the most edits.

"Martin Lewis—a protegé of Derek Taylor—has become a vocal champion of Epstein's memory, creating "The Official Brian Epstein Website", which includes a petition that Epstein be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame".

Brian didn't get a GA because "Davidpatrick = Lewis" wants Epstein inducted, and doesn't want anything bad said about him. Go on - tell me I'm wrong... mr andreasEgde 21:19, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
