Change to article title

I've changed the title of this article from 4-by the Beatles to 4 by the Beatles. This is based on how the title appears in several books: Castleman & Podrazik's All Together Now (1976), Nicholas Schaffner's The Beatles Forever (1978), Barry Miles' The Beatles Diary (2001) and Walter Everett's The Beatles as Musicians: The Quarry Men through Rubber Soul (2001). According to the Bruce Spizer book sourced in the article, Capitol's initiative was called the "4-By" series, but I don't really see that as a reason not to go with the others as far as this particular title goes. Also worth noting that the release was listed on the Billboard Hot 100 on 27 March 1965 (p. 32 in the preview) as Four by the Beatles – inconsistent spelling-out of "four", but again, no hyphen.
