The Beatles concerts list[edit]
Although many may disagree, I think your article on The Beatles concerts is a good idea. We have The Beatles trivia, and The Beatles' influence on popular culture, so why not concerts? --andreasegde 05:30, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks - I'm inclined to agree - we do have articles such as lists of Simpsons episodes any many others which aren't particularly encyclopedic. I think it's justifiable as a point of reference. Currently there's only one comment on it's talk page regarding it's questionability, so we shall have to wait and better judge general concensus on the thing. I'll avoid adding any more (it's quite tedious!) until then. Liverpool Scouse 15:29, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

vandalism warning question[edit]
Hi - how do you specify the vandal warning template - I know {{test4}} or whichever, but I see you are able to insert "as you did in xyz" and I'd like to know how to do that. Thanks Tvoz 18:55, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
- Oh, of course - I should have realized that! Thanks a lot. By the way, did you see the exchange on Talk:John Lennon about getting the page protected for later this week? Unless anyone objects, I'm going to request it. Too many idiots out there will be attracted to the page, sadly, on or around Dec 8. (Is there any reason not to block?) Tvoz 17:45, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
- So far, so good on the Lennon vandalism watch today. A toast to John, eh? Cheers Tvoz 19:52, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
- Still as influential, and his loss still as meaningless and painful as it was that terrible night. New York loved John as much as he loved us - we are shamed that it happened here. Tvoz 20:17, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for saying that. Have you been to Strawberry Fields? It is quite a beautiful place, and just the right place to sit and contemplate. Of course today it's 20 degrees (Fahrenheit), so not the best weather for it! Tvoz 20:59, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

I look from the wings at the play you are staging While my guitar gently weeps As I'm sitting here doing nothing but aging Still my guitar gently weeps On the reverse of the page appears the lyrics to Hey Jude in the hand of Mal Evans.

Hottest issue or concern for this month is the perennial matter of Project articles losing their Good or Featured Article status. The main Project page now includes a status board that gives the current ratings of some of the more important articles. Let's make sure the core articles (The Beatles, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr) reach or retain Good Article status, if not Featured Article. If you are aware of another major article whose status is at risk, add it to the board.
Since there has been no response in the matter of the use of lowercase for the initial letter of the when applied with Beatles from the opponents, it is likely that the case for using lowercase only will be adopted as Project policy by default. User:LessHeard vanU will draw up a recommendation and submit it to the Policy talkpage in a few days.

See below. There is genuine concern that the Newsletter is getting stale in terms of content and variety, and that the same individuals are featured each month. Furthermore, lack of "news" is hindering the timely distribution as the editors wait for something to report. All Project editors are encouraged to give their news, suggestions and thoughts to keep the 'Letter vital and interesting. If making direct contributions do not appeal, please give a mention on the Newsletter talkpage and it will be incorporated!
Help is needed for the job of putting future Newsletters together. The present incumbent is finding it difficult to reflect the breadth of the Project, focusing on much the same individuals and articles each month, and has decided to beg for contributions from other individuals. Interested persons need only start working on next months issue to qualify. It really is that simple! If you've just joined, add your name to the Participants section of Wikipedia:WikiProject The Beatles. You'll get a mention in the next issue of the Newsletter and get it delivered as desired. Also, please include your own promotions and awards in future issues. Don't be shy! Lastly, this is your newsletter and you can be involved in the creation of the next issue (Issue 012 – April 2007). Any and all contributions are welcome. Simply let yourself be known to any of the undersigned, or just start editing!
