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.

Was the tune to this song later plagiarized in the song "Grandma Got Runover By A Reindeer?"--KEVP Jan 14 '07
[edit] Status
After editing today, The Beatles info is in pretty good shape, if I do say so myself. The dates and language are in American English (or I intended them to be, at least), as the original is by an American artist. I added some info about the Buck Owens version, but it could use more. I changed assessment to Start, but it could be B or A with addition of pertinent Owens info and review by other Wikipedia:WikiProject The Beatles members. John Cardinal 15:24, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
