Low

This article has been rated as Low-importance on the project's importance scale.

This article was a past project collaboration.

To-do list:

Fair use

Add fair use rationale to all images and sound samples (all except images already labeled free use).
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.

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.

Speedy delete

Why was this article deleted 3 days ago? And why do you want do delete it again? I don't understand you!

I'm not the person who posted the above mini-rant but I oppose the deletion of this article as well. This tour is being put on by a notable musician who was a member and lead singer/songwriter for a world renown band and the content is their most well known album. The tour will generate significant press and the article already has numerous sources. Dismas|^(talk) 23:35, 12 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Why do you want to delete this? I don't understand why? It's official, it's a major event, and a lot of people will want to know about this. Are1981 (talk) 09:31, 13 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This is an encyclopaedia, it is not a music magazine. The project is not here to provide up front advertising for a rather rich musician. And in all honesty the last place a Waters' fan is likely to come for a concert update is Wikipedia as there are far better sources. Ultimately though, a tour that has not yet happened is inherently non-notable unless it's been wrapped up in some controversy of some sort, or is a first in some way (e.g. the Berlin Wall concert). Wait until the tour has started, has generated some non-promotional press copy and has shown itself to be something other than another musician's concert tour. --Fred the Oyster (talk) 09:40, 13 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This has already created media coverage, so when people turn to an online encyclopaedia, they expect to find more facts. Therefore, I still oppose the deletion of this article. Are1981 (talk) 10:50, 13 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Then I suggest you give your opinions at the AfD rather than here. --Fred the Oyster (talk) 10:51, 13 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of this article is utter nonsense. This tour features a quite famous artist, performing a multi-platinum album. The Wall hasn't been performed live, in its entirety, in 30 years. The Wall tour that was done by Pink Floyd in 1980 was a technical, and financial disaster. The tour is notorious, just on the strength of technology now being able to accomplish what was set out to do back then. Also, Waters has stated that these will likely be his final live performances.

Why do you mess up the article?

People who don't know how to edit should leave it alone! Are1981 (talk) 01:10, 11 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Date format

There are currently two date formats in use in the article. User 83.141.122.2 started using another format than what was used in the article previously. What should be done? Are1981 (talk) 15:51, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"1st time"

I removed the sentence about the tour marking the first live performances of the album since Waters did it in 1991. The Wall was performed in its entirety, complete with theatrics, by The Australian Pink Floyd Show in 1998.Mk5384 (talk) 06:21, 19 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I added it back in with a few words added. Are1981 (talk) 21:55, 22 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Show number column in tour dates table

I vote for having a show number column left of the date. What are your thoughts on this? Are1981 (talk) 00:11, 22 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good to me. — GabeMc (talk) 00:30, 22 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Also I think that the attendance should be divided into attendance per show, like certain french articles do.

When will the dates from Buenos Aires and Santiago (Wich by far surpassed the 1 st. North American leg attendance) be added? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.192.160.93 (talk) 18:07, 8 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Philips Arena Atlanta

This may not be that important but Philips Arena Atlanta has a concert capacity of 21,000, not 12,665 as stated in main article. I attended the June 13 2012 event at that venue and it was probably 99% full. The combined revenue from both events in Atlanta (November 2010 and June 2012) with total capacity of about 42,000 is certainly more that the $1.77 million shown in the article. There are probably similar errors regarding other venues. Update to this article is required. Merlin1935 (talk) 15:59, 16 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The "The Wall Live (concert tour)" title improvement

Due to the confusion between the 2010-2013 and the 1980-81 tour, the title was changed as "The Wall Live (2010-2013 concert tour by Roger Waters)". If this title is not adequate, please improve it. --Toksoz (talk) 20:06, 7 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
