Sections and general tasks
- Copyedit for flow, quality of prose, wikilinks (preferably with the help of a good editor who hasn't worked on the article); do an AWB cleanup (wikify dates, rm redundant repeated wikilinks); act on/remove any remaining HTML comments. At the end, some refs might be convertible to "passim". Also, if possible, it would be great to go through some other books e.g. on The Beatles or alternative texts on McCartney and "double cite" as appropriate, or note any discrepancies. Then the article is solid as a rock.
- Expand companion article(s): MPL Communications - and may be worth a look for suitable info.
- Red links to turn blue: My Brave Face
- Tidy up companion article(s): Paul McCartney discography
- Songwriting and musicianship: We have the background info, but do we need more from later years and more commentary on styles, influences etc.?
- Sections:
- What happened to the text on the Ram/Imagine episode? I thought I'd put some in?
- Paul_McCartney#1990s: Stub section. "Theme" of decade? Declining sales?
- 2000s: "Theme" of decade? Critical rejuvanation on the back of successful tours?
- Paul_McCartney#Lifestyle: Intro possibly a bit longer
- Paul_McCartney#Achievements_and_critical_reception: Needs an intro.
- Paul_McCartney#Discography: Perhaps needs a paragraph of prose? Needs formatting.
- Fair use rationales for pictures
- Images needed/wanted: Free or appropriate fair use images of Jane Asher, Linda McCartney, Heather Mills McCartney. (The image of George Harrison might have to be replaced too).
- Wings samples needed.
- ABOVE LIST NEEDS TO BE CHECKED AND COMPLETED ITEMS REMOVED
Specific issues - citations, troublesome sentences, etc.
- "In 1974, Wings achieved hits with the singles "Jet", "Band on the Run" and "Junior's Farm"." - Place chart positions and source for each "hit" into footnotes.
- Divorce: If estimates range from £50m, we need a citation for that estimate. We can't guess.
- expand this to-do section with the HTML comments in the article
