:{{ping|Mlpearc}}Thank you for replying. I'm sorry but I don't see how my edit does not meet the criteria in [[WP:NSONG]] and [[WP:COVERSONG]]. It states: "Songs and singles are probably notable if they have been the subject of multiple, non-trivial published works whose sources are independent of the artist and label." The cover definitely meets that criteria.

This article was a past project collaboration.
To-do list:
Fair use

Articles

  • Expand all articles to at least Start class. Some song stubs can't be expanded and should be redirected to the relevant album article. Use the "Interstellar Overdrive" article as an example when editing a song stub.
  • Expand all of the Floyd's studio album articles to at least GA status.
  • See COTM for monthly collabs.

Project building

  • Add WikiProject Pink Floyd banner {{WPFloyd}} to all appropriate Talk pages.
  • Personally invite quality editors working on Pink Floyd articles to join the project.

If you complete one of these tasks, please remove it from the list.


This article does not yet have a related to do list. If you can think of any ways to improve the article, why not create one?

Echoes Cover addition request

I recently made the mistake of making an addition this page without requesting it. I wanted to make an addition to the "cover versions" section to include a cover which has been doing the rounds on the internet. A YouTuber/musician who does many Floyd covers did a full cover of this song. My original edit was removed because the cover wasn't "notable". I'd like to know what makes a cover notable. This particular cover was shared by many blogs and websites and people non other than Pink Floyd drummer himself Nick Mason, receiving high praise from the main man.

I think for a Wikipedia page this detailed it should also include more covers. It looks a bit empty the way it is just now. — Preceding unsigned comment added by WisemanOnceSaid (talk • contribs) 23:24, 23 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
