The Early Tapes of The Beatles

 * Finishing AfD listing and fixing formatting. No opinion. '  (Feeling chatty? ) (Edits!) 03:31, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Even the most obscure Beatles compilation is probably notable. --djrobgordon 03:44, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
 * What a load of bollocks for this over-inflated band.


 * Keep per djrobgordon. Tempshill 04:28, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete If it were from 1962 yes, but it's from 2004. ~ trialsanderrors 05:46, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per djrobgordon. It doesn't matter when it was released.  It doesn't even matter that it wasn't even sung by the beatles. --Danielrocks123 07:13, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Robertsteadman 09:18, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Repackaging already existing material doesn't seem notable to me, unless its a case where the compilation itself is culturally notable (such as Beatles 1). I'll change my vote if such a case can be shown. -Goldom ‽‽‽ ⁂ 09:23, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
 * keep per djrobgordon. Bruno18 14:15, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete No need for repacked and/or reissued albums. T e  k e  15:39, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge with The Beatles discography. Ac@osr 17:59, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge to the newly created article The Beatles' First which was the first British packaging of this material. The posting is a change from my earlier (now deleted) posting to reflect the new article which should replace this article. Steelbeard1 02:07, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge to the newly created article The Beatles' First. This is the first British packaging of the Sheridan/Beatles/Beat Brothers Hamburg recordings. We do not need separate articles on each different repackaging of an album. Extraordinary Machine 18:40, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Good to have because this is the Beatles. The article is also informative. --JJay 22:58, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep - as djrobgordon says - Any album that contains Beatles songs is more notable than most of the albums we already have here. - Richardcavell 00:26, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per djrobgordon  Funky Monkey    (talk)   00:25, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Merge the content to The Beatles discography or The Beatles' First as Ac@osr, Steelbeard1. --HResearcher 03:44, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge this with The Beatles' First, keep the cover image there, and leave a redirect, per Steelbeard1, et al. (I'm a member of WP:Beatles but I still don't see the need for this particular article)  + +Lar: t/c 11:47, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep more notable than some of the hip hop rappers who make transient appearances. Part of pop history. BlueValour 21:07, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge with The Beatles' First as recommended above. The keep voters seem to be overlooking that this article specifically is about a 2004 repackaging, not the original release. Bwithh 06:30, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
