I love the Beatles, but this is a list of loosely assorted topics. Zero pages link there, but I see no reason why there needs to be a list for song with a certain guitar. Reywas92Talk 21:57, 24 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. The Beatles' use of Rickenbacker guitars is certainly notable within the context of their career, but no evidence is offered in this list as to why such use is independently notable, or why the songs in which such instruments are used are collectively notable because of this instrumentation. This seems to be a sort of Gearhead/Beatles-fan-cruft, and unencyclopedic. Also, no sources are cited, and original research is likely ("Gee, that sounds like a Rick--I think I'll add this song to the list."). This sort of information is best covered in The Beatles' instrumentation (insofar as a song has been critically identified as showcasing the use of a particular instrument) and in the individual song articles.

Objectively speaking, no subject is notable in itself unless one chooses to see it as notable. As far as I'm concerned, which Beatles songs feature Rickenbacker guitars is as important as the subject of quasars and Christianity. 14:57, 26 February 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.238.191.9 (talk)
- "Objectively speaking, no subject is notable in itself unless one chooses to see it as notable." So there's no such thing as objectivity unless you subjectively accept it? Nice. Anyway, you have every right to consider this topic as notable as quasars, but since it's vastly unlikely anyone else would, that's why we have notability guidelines. tomasz. 15:21, 26 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Non notable. There is already a list of Beatles songs, nobody care what guitar was used. Izzy007 Talk 23:20, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
