Attributions
In this edit of yours, which I'm sure was well intended, you added material in front of a reference to a Guardian article by Jonathan Jones. This resulted in the implication that Jones is the article's source for this material. Jones does indeed present some of it (and does so with rather rare affection and persuasiveness), but he doesn't present all. Please be careful in how you add material such as this. I've added a warning template; if you could add a second source for Get Back, etc, that would be most welcome. -- Hoary (talk) 02:14, 4 March 2016 (UTC)

Publishers
In this edit, you "correct" the name of a publisher from Rizzoli to Jonathan Cape. That immediately struck me as odd, because this is a book that's clearly of transatlantic appeal, and it's normal for books such as this to have at least two publishers: one in the US and the other in Britain. Sure enough, WorldCat showed that this is what happened: in English, the book was published by both Rizzoli and Cape. (Rizzoli also published it in Italian.) WorldCat is an excellent source of information for this kind of thing (though it's neither infallible nor all-inclusive; I recommend it. (Incidentally, you normally don't need to present sources for book publication details.) -- Hoary (talk) 02:14, 4 March 2016 (UTC)
