List of songs in The Beatles: Rock Band

 * Nominator(s): M ASEM (t) 06:16, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

Nominating this list, now that the main game article has reached Featured status, this list can also easily meet this. There is some possibility of more DLC, but the format used in that table given is likely not going to change should that happen: the only change may be if there is a lot of non-album, single content, in which case it makes sense to add the album column as the first table. Note that this follows similar formatting and content approach (outside tables) as the various Guitar Hero song lists that are featured. M ASEM (t) 06:16, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

Comments That's all for now. Matthewedwards : Chat  00:20, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
 * "The gameplay mechanics of The Beatles: Rock Band are similar to those found in other Rock Band games." Could you perhaps elaborate on this a little, so the reader doesn't have to navigate away from the page?
 * "However, compared to other music video games..." However should follow a semi colon, that than starting a new sentence. If you can WP:AVOID using it altogether, though, that would be better
 * "number of tracks was considered small [4][5]," refs are misplaced
 * "the inclusion of certain songs over the exclusion of others was considered confusing." by whom? And are there any reasons why?
 * "The game disc features 45 songs chosen from twelve" comparable quantities should be in the same format (ie all numerals or all words)
 * "I Am The Walrus" see WP:NCM for correct letter case in song titles
 * "Abbey Road Studios '67-68" follow MOS:DATE and use "1967-68"
 * "Oct. 20, 2009" MOS:DATE again says only to abbreviate months when space is limited, but that's not the case here
 * I've adjusted all the above, except the "'67-68" bit, as in the game, these venues are labeled exactly like that. It's not that these can be changed, but it is staying accurate to how the game presents the information. --M ASEM (t) 22:51, 20 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Comments from KV5

Just two quick comments:
 * Date ranges need to use en-dashes, not hyphens, regardless of the punctuation used in-game.
 * An image of the Beatles in the lead would be great, since the game doesn't have anything free use and no fair-use rationale could likely be provided. This file from the lead of the Beatles article would be ideal.

Hope this helps. KV5 ( Talk  •  Phils ) 04:27, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Fixed the ndashs. As for the picture, there is also File:RockBandBeatlesPAX.jpg this free image of people actually playing the game. Either could work here. --M ASEM (t) 14:38, 21 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Comment There's a dead link; check the toolbox. Dabomb87 (talk) 15:57, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Fixed (link had moved elsewhere on the site) --M ASEM (t) 16:18, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

Quick comments –
 * In the first table, the Venue column is sorting incorrectly, at least if alpabetical sorting is the goal (varies depending on the situation).
 * In the lead-in to the second table, DLC is given as an initial without being defined anywhere. The initials in parentheses should be added after its first use in the article.  Giants2008  ( 27 and counting ) 04:24, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
 * The venues are sorted by their in-game order (which is roughly historical). I've noted this in the prose.  DLC spelled out. --M ASEM  (t) 04:47, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
