This article has been rated as Top-importance on the project's importance scale.

This article was a past project collaboration.

To-do list:

Fair use

Add fair use rationale to all images and sound samples (all except images already labeled free use).
Re-size large images around to 300 pixels (all "fair use" images), other than album covers (already done).

Articles

Expand all articles to at least Start class. Some song stubs can't be expanded and should be redirected to the relevant album article. Use the "Interstellar Overdrive" article as an example when editing a song stub.
Expand all of the Floyd's studio album articles to at least GA status.
See COTM for monthly collabs.

Project building

Add WikiProject Pink Floyd banner {{WPFloyd}} to all appropriate Talk pages.
Personally invite quality editors working on Pink Floyd articles to join the project.

If you complete one of these tasks, please remove it from the list.

Seperating pages. edit

The three parts of "Another brick in the Wall" should have their own pages. Part III has only got a sum-up of the plot, it needs more information (about the sound effects, for example). Part II has good information, which should be fitted into a seperate page.

Needs some... thought control on the famous "We don't need no education" line edit

"We don't need no education" line is a play on words, whether there is a misused double negation or not. The rest of the song pretty much implies the problems with school environment, that ruin the delivery of education. A British... a Bri'ish person can intuitively sense it alright, but my Runglish-speaking brain yearns for a lengthy paragraph on the trick used in the song. 81.89.66.133 (talk) 12:28, 7 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

We would need to find a reliable source that covers it first. Popcornfud (talk) 19:42, 7 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Maybe we could mention the Supergroup Hollywood Vampires combined the songs School's Out and Another Brick in the Wall Part 2 on their album, and Alice Cooper, whenever he performs School's Out Live will do what he did with Hollywood Vampires, and put Another Brick in the Wall Part 2 in the middle of the song — Preceding unsigned comment added by 159.250.44.109 (talk) 11:52, 19 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
