Yes, there's some good stuff going on with The Beatles articles, not least resulting from your own dedicated and prolific work. It seemed a few feathers were ruffled by my moderately spectacular debut on the Talk page, what with the famous "The" closely followed by the merger/split disagreements, but I then saw from the Talk archives that in fact the disturbances I stirred up pale into insignificance compared with actually quite a lot of what's gone before! I have to say I was very impressed that although a small number of the responses I got were perhaps merely provocative, much of what people said was very civil, intelligent and reasonable, and continued to be so despite my minority of about one! Anyway, that's history, but as you say, the improvements currently being made on Beatles articles are very encouraging, and it's great to be working on them with such people.
