; '''Issue of the Month'''

Again, the issue of the month is inline citations. [[A Day in the Life]], [[A Hard Day's Night (song)]], and [[Get Back]] have all been defeatured, as they failed to satisfy criterion 1(c) of [[WP:WIAFA|What is a featured article?]], and other song FAs are due for the chopping block. Inline citations are an important aspect of articles—they ensure verifiability and reliability, and they remove original research. Additionally, they give readers the option to read the original source material and view it within context.

Basically:
# All direct quotations attributed to Beatles members pooled from interviews need full inline citations.
# All critical comments about songs or albums need full inline citations to notable music critics, magazines opinions, or reviews, as opposed to being merely comments by Wikipedians.
# Inline citations need: author name, article name, publication date, and name of publication. Such info is still preferable even if quoting from an interview posted upon a website; when this is the case, place the URL link at the end of the citation with the date it was last accessed. (This will help editors retrieve the page using the [[Internet Archive#Wayback_Machine|Wayback Machine]], should the link go dead in the future.)

; Beatles News

* The Beatles are due to release a soundtrack album, ''[[LOVE (album)|LOVE]]'', at the end of November, as a companion to their [[Cirque du Soleil]] [[LOVE (Cirque du Soleil)|adaptation of the same name]]. It will feature remastered and remixed versions of their previously released songs, including some new medleys.
* Paul's getting a divorce. Pain, arguing, and fighting abound.

; Project News

* '''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject_The_Beatles#Featured_Article_drive|Featured Article drive]]:''' A number of project members are collaborating on [[Paul McCartney]]'s article, with the aim of getting it to Featured Article status. The work is going well and all help is welcome! Check in at [[Talk:Paul McCartney]] if you want to help.

* The Wings tours are really nicely documented now (see [[:Category:Wings tours]]), but [[:Category:The Beatles tours]] is almost empty. [[User:Kingboyk|Kingboyk]] and the rest of us would love to see (and read) articles on each Beatles tour, including the pre-fame tours of the UK—and the Hamburg trips, of course!

* The article on [[Alistair Taylor]] has been [[Wikipedia:WikiProject The Beatles#Adopt an article|adopted]] by [[User:Alexcalamaro|Alexcalamaro]].

* Two new articles have been listed in the [[WP:TBL|Project Log]] since [[1 October]]:
**"[[I'll Be on My Way]]", a [[Lennon/McCartney]] song from [[1963 in music|1963]] ([[User:Zakko|Zakko]])
**[[Wings tours]], a list of [[Wings (band)|Wings]] [[concert tour]]s ([[User:Kingboyk|Kingboyk]])

* The hottest Project page this month has been [[Paul McCartney]], involved in the Featured Article drive, as mentioned above.

* Our project members are too modest to report any awards they may have given or received.

; From the Editors

Wherever possible, editors should help to trim down on list-like prose within Beatles articles. They should convert list-like sections into fluent, cohesive prose which ties an article's sections together. Lists make articles disjointed, awkward, and difficult to read.

Be sure to take part in the Featured Article drive, and don't forget those inline citations!

; '''Issue of the Month'''

Wikipedia's standards are improving all the time, with the result that many articles in The Beatles Wikiproject are being nominated for review of their [[WP:FA|FA]] and [[WP:GA|GA]] status - and many are losing that accolade. It is difficult, with such a large number of articles and the ease with which editors may make changes which are detrimental, to maintain the standard of articles, let alone improve them. As ever, members efforts are both appreciated and needed to keep the Project on course.

; Beatles News

* A Beatles compilation called "Love", featuring tracks remastered by [[George Martin]] (with his son Giles), has been released and has made number 1 in Canada.

* The impending divorce between Paul McCartney and the former [[Heather Mills]] continues to make the pages in the tabloid press in the UK.

; Project News

* New to the [[WP:TBL|Project Log]] is the nomination of four articles for consideration as suitable for collaboration, in the manner in which [[Paul McCartney]] is now being edited, once the aforementioned article is completed. The nominations are [[George Harrison]], [[Apple Corp]], [[The Beatles]](!!), all proposed by [[User:Kingboyk|Kingboyk]] and [[John Lennon]], proposed by [[User:LuciferMorgan|LuciferMorgan]]. Interested editors should make themselves known on the various article talk pages.

* Three new articles have been listed in the [[WP:TBL|Project Log]] since [[1 November]], being [[Wings tours]] by [[User:Kingboyk|Kingboyk]], and [[List of Beatles concerts]] and [[Mathew Street]], both by [[User:Liverpool Scouse|Liverpool Scouse]].

* The hottest Project page this month has been Paul McCartney (see above and below).

* Another Project article, [[I Want to Hold Your Hand]], has lost its FA status and both [[Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band]] and [[Beatles For Sale]] have lost their GA (Good Article) status. In the meantime, [[Real Love]] is being considered at [[WP:FARC]]. Some great news is that [[Paul McCartney]] has passed its nomination for GA status, although with the polite request that the introduction be looked at.

; Member News

* New members to the project since the last issue include [[User:Mrmaroon25|mrmaroon25]], <span style="font-family:Papyrus;">'''[[User:Kyo cat/Esperanza|<span style="color:#0c0">K</span>]][[User:Kyo cat|<span style="color:#f90">yo cat</span>]]'''</span> and [[User:01kkk|"I Am the Eggman"]].

| rowspan="2" style="border: 1px gray solid; padding: 1em; vertical-align: top;" |

; From the Editors

If one is to be mercenary about the subject, it should be noted that Paul McCartney is going to be more noteworthy than usual in the near future as his divorce case comes to court. In that case it is great to note that a small group of Project Members (plus another individual who does not feel compelled to register himself despite important contributions) have worked very hard, and in an atmosphere of good humour, to take the McCartney piece to a succesful Good Article nomination. Perhaps this is the method to use for future articles, a small dedicated team concentrating on one subject at a time. Of course, all members are invited to join any existing group or even go about forming their own. Please note any such action in the [[WP:TBL|Project Log]].

If you've just joined, add your name to the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject The Beatles#Participants|Participants]] section of [[Wikipedia:WikiProject The Beatles]]. You'll get a mention in the next issue of the Newsletter and get it delivered [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_The_Beatles/Outreach#Special_delivery|as desired]]. Also, please include your own promotions and awards in future issues. Don't be shy!

; Beatles News

* On Friday 30th March, a deranged fan was held after attempting to force his way into [[Paul McCartney]]'s mansion. See [http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/story_pages/showbiz/showbiz1.shtml here] for more details.
* [[Apple Corps]] continues to make news, after the recent settlement with [[Apple Computer]] over the use of the Apple trademark. On April 10th, the company announced that long-time chief executive [[Neil Aspinall]] had stepped down and had been replaced by American [[Jeff Jones (music industry executive)|Jeff Jones]]. It was also announced that another long term dispute, this time with [[EMI]] over royalties, had been amicably settled prior to Aspinall's departure.[http://www.therockradio.com/2007/04/beatles-right-hand-man-steps-down-as.html][http://www.iht.com/articles/ap/2007/04/12/europe/EU-GEN-Britain-Beatles-Royalties.php]

; Project News

*The article "[[Jeff Jones (music industry executive)]]" suddenly becomes of top importance in the Apple sphere of Beatledom. [[User:Kingboyk]] has created a stub on the man, but the article needs urgent beefing up (including basic biographical data such as date and place of birth) and, if possible, a photograph of the new Apple chief executive.

*[[Mimi Smith]] promises to have the last word over John yet again; her article is currently a [[Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Mimi Smith|Featured Article Candidate]]. [[Brian Epstein]] is a current GA candidate. See the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_The_Beatles#Adopt_an_article Status board|Status board]] for more article news.

* 2 new articles have been listed in the [[WP:TBL|Project Log]] since [[1 March]]: [[Tony Barrow]] and [[Jeff Jones (music industry executive)]].

* With the debate over "the Beatles" vs "The Beatles" continuing to cause ill feeling and a number of resignations from the project from advocates on both sides, [[User:Kingboyk|Kingboyk]] attempted to diffuse the situation by blanking the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject The Beatles/Policy|Project Policy]] page and tagging it as {{tl|historical}}. Although this unilateral action hasn't been reverted as of the time of writing, the reaction was mixed, with two members rejoining the project and others stating their disagreement. With the issue still not resolved, the page was sent to [[Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:WikiProject The Beatles/Policy|Miscellany for Deletion]], for the wider community (and WikiProject The Beatles members) to consider the issue.

; Member News

* The membership list has been trimmed, with inactive members listed seperately to help gauge the status of the project. If you've been incorrectly listed as inactive, please don't be offended - just move yourself back to the main list.

== map question ==

Hi Dan... In [[:Image:40 Window world map.PNG|this map]], you do not have the same countries colored as are supposèdly used as the source ([http://www.ad2000.org/1040coun.htm here]).  Was this an oversight?  Clearly, their map is not entirely in agreement with their list, since Spain is colored on their map, but not included in their list.  However, explicity included in their list are North Korea and Ethiopia which, while not specifically meeting the criteria for inclusion in this dubious grouping of countries, are included nevertheless.  If your map is an effort to correct inaccuracies in the source website, please review [[WP:OR]] and [[WP:NPOV]].  If this is a result of an oversight on your part, please consider fixing the map to match the source website.  Cheers, [[User:TShilo12|Tom]][[Wikipedia:Esperanza|<span style="color:#008000;">e</span>]][[User:TShilo12|r]][[User talk:TShilo12|<sup style="font-variant: small-caps; color: #129dbc!important;">talk</sup>]] 22:58, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
:Ya, no problem...I was confused.  After a bit of reflection, it's possible that when he original map was created, it included Eritrea as part of Ethiopia, and North Korea as part of "Korea" as a whole...I think the 40th parallel almost exactly bisects the North.  It is, nonetheless, included, as with Ethiopia, in their list there.  What the deal is with Spain I'm not certain, but I think it's OK to leave it off, since it neither fits the description, nor does it make their country listing.  That's all for now.  :-)  Cheers, [[User:TShilo12|Tom]][[Wikipedia:Esperanza|<span style="color:#008000;">e</span>]][[User:TShilo12|r]][[User talk:TShilo12|<sup style="font-variant: small-caps; color: #129dbc!important;">talk</sup>]] 23:21, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Hello!  You are listed as an active member of the College Football Project!  We have a large number of unreferenced biographies of living persons, but it works out to be just two or three articles per active participant.  I've divided up the articles that need help and put them in a table on [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject College football/Unreferenced BLPs]].  Please assist the project by researching and sourcing the articles that have been "assigned" (so to speak) to you.--[[User:Paulmcdonald|Paul McDonald]] ([[User talk:Paulmcdonald|talk]]) 02:45, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

== Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference ==

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse ([[Help_talk:Minor_edit#Should_we_remove_the_Preference_setting_to_.22Mark_all_edits_minor_by_default.22_.3F|consensus discussion]]). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was <code>true</code>. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to <code>false</code> in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way. 

For established users such as yourself there is '''[[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)/Archive_78#Preference_to_mark_all_edits_minor_by_default_asked_to_be_removed_in_bugzilla:24313|a workaround available]]''' involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by [[WP:MINOR]]). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of [[User:Jarry1250]], [[User:LivingBot|LivingBot]] ([[User talk:LivingBot|talk]]) 18:28, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

== Survey Invite ==

I'm working on a study of political motivations and how they affect editing. I'd like to ask you to take a survey. The survey should take no more than 1-2 minutes. Your survey responses will be kept private. Our project is documented at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Wikipedia_%2B_Politics.

Your survey Link: http://uchicago.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9S3JByWf57fXEkR?Q_DL=56np5HpEZWkMlr7_9S3JByWf57fXEkR_MLRP_71IC76ackacbcu9&Q_CHL=gl

I am asking you to participate in this study because you are a frequent editor of pages on Wikipedia that are of political interest. We would like to learn about your experiences in dealing with editors of different political orientations.

Sincere thanks for your help! [[User:Porteclefs|Porteclefs]] ([[User talk:Porteclefs|talk]]) 01:04, 12 April 2018 (UTC)
