Re-size large images around to 300 pixels (all "fair use" images), other than album covers (already done).

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.

Add WikiProject Pink Floyd banner {{WPFloyd}} to all appropriate Talk pages.

Death mask

Sorry, I don't think a picture of what is effectively a death mask is particularly nice to have in this article. What do others think? Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 18:28, 14 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It's not a death mask, so I think you're tilting at windmills. See also Is There Anybody Out There? The Wall Live 1980–81. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 18:39, 14 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Yup, I remember having the album on bootleg about 25 years ago. Don't really like it as much as the early 70s stuff. Still looks creepy to me, though. I'll ask one of my kids what they think. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 18:51, 14 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Seems to me to be non-notable trivia, not needed. - FlightTime (open channel) 19:16, 14 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Listing albums in first paragraph...

In the first section it says:

"performing on all but one of the group's albums including The Piper at the Gates of Dawn, The Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here and The Division Bell,"

...why these four albums specifically? Why not say which album he didn't play on (The Final Cut), which I think would be a lot more informational? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:644:502:9370:1AE:EBD6:5924:E889 (talk) 16:19, 8 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
