I have successfully brought Harrison, Lennon, and McCartney's song lists all up to FL so last but not least, the drummer. One to go before the Fab Four together. While Ringo may not have had the most successful solo career (especially after 1974), that doesn't change the fact that he still one of the greatest drummers of all time and the world would not be the same without him. As always, I can't wait to hear all your comments and concerns. :-) – zmbro (talk) 03:59, 29 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comments
  • "both featured less celebrity contributors" => "both featured fewer celebrity contributors"
  • "Starr began recording with his All-Starr Band, who" => "Starr began recording with his All-Starr Band, which"
  • "whose title track featured references" => "the title track of which featured references"
  • How come "Do You Like Me Just a Little Bit?" has no writers? Someone must have written it.......
  • Reached out to another editor who might be able to help with that.
  • You haven't marked "Money" as having been previously recorded by the Beatles
  • "Spooky Weirdness" has no writers?
  • Weirdly enough yeah, the liner notes don't credit anyone for that track.
  • All done + comments above. Thanks very much :-) – zmbro (talk) 14:43, 2 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Talking of "Spooky Weirdness", it seems that some of the S tracks aren't in the right order -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 20:03, 2 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Whoops – fixed. – zmbro (talk) 14:35, 3 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support Comments from Aoba47 edit

  • I do not think the caption for the lead image should have a period because it is not a full/complete sentence.
  • I would link "rock" in "and the rock album" to be consistent with how every other musical genre is linked in the lead.

Wonderful work with the list. Once my very minor and nitpicky comments are addressed, I will be more than happy to support this for promotion. Have a great rest of your weekend. Aoba47 (talk) 01:02, 4 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Apologies for the delay in my response. Awesome work with the list as always. I support it for promotion. I hope you are having an excellent start to your week! Aoba47 (talk) 20:29, 4 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Aoba47 Thank you so much! And you too as well! :-) – zmbro (talk) 01:04, 5 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Source review – There are a few formatting issues and the like that could stand to be fixed before promotion occurs:

  • The Castleman/Podrazak, Clayson, and Miles/Badman books have no cites to them at the moment, so there's no reason for them to be placed in the source list.
  • Ref 5 has a typo in the author name (Rodrigues instead of Rodriguez), which is causing me a nasty red error message.
  • Ref 14 doesn't have the year listed, unlike the other book cites. That is causing me another nasty red error message.
  • The full Badman 2001 book reference doesn't have the ref=harv parameter, which leads to more error messages in the cites using it.
  • Other than those issues, the formatting is okay. The reliability of the sources looks fine, and the link-checker shows no problems. Giants2008 (Talk) 23:28, 16 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
