We are transitioning to the new classification scheme and many articles have been tagged with {{ WPBeatles}} and classified. Many were classified based on the old scheme's classification. But at that time there was no way to record comments.
Subsequently a scheme to record comments (and have them appear in the classification tables) has been developed. It involves creating a subpage of the talk page (where the was already added) and putting the comments there. There are a LOT of comments that should be rescued.
It's actually pretty easy to rescue them. Here are step by step instructions:
|[[Brian Epstein]]||9 March 2006||{{A-Class}}||No||I would place this article at the lower end of A-class. It needs sections, sources & citations, another photo (or infobox) at the top, copyediting and an expansion of the first paragraph to create a better introduction. As an extra comment here, I'd like to suggest that Epstein's interest in [[John Lennon]], from a sexual perspective, may well have been pivotal in his motivation to launch the band, as documented in a very comprehensive biography I read many years ago. Of course, a source for that would need to be cited, and the fact carefully edited to avoid any possibility of offence to any sexuality.||[[User:Setanta747|Mal]]

For merges, I've been putting the merged commments in the destination article with "these commments from mergedin article xxxx" see Talk:History_of_The_Beatles for example, which has merged commments from "The Beatles Ltd."
Questions, just ask me! Thanks for helping out. It's not as complex as it seems.
