Songwriting

[edit]

The authors in the section "Musiscianship / Songwriting" and in the beginning of the whole entry skip two songs to which Starr contributed as a writer: "Free as a bird" and "Real love", both released under the name The Beatles. Alejandroflopezz (talk) 15:34, 23 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Alejandroflopezz: Ringo has no writing credit for "Real Love", nor does McCartney or Harrison. The section is not meant to be an exhaustive list of his credits. He is listed at Anthology 1#Track listing. Sundayclose (talk) 15:54, 23 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Home - conflict of information in the article

[edit]

In the Personal life section, we have Ringo and his wife splitting their time between LA and Monte Carlo at the beginning of the paragraph about his homes. But at the end of the paragraph their time is divided between LA and London. Boscaswell talk 10:23, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

But he sold the Cranleigh property 12 years ago? So they can't be spending any time there any more? The supporting source is 20 years old. Martinevans123 (talk) 11:10, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Cite error: There are <ref> tags on this page without content in them (see the help page). Ringo Starr's birthplace of 9 Madryn Street is not in the district of Dingle. It is in the district of Toxteth. The postcode L8 3UT which refers to the address is part of Toxteth, not Dingle.

thank you, I think you'd need to show that was true at the time of his birth as districts can change and you'd need to provide reliable sources, as the existing sources appear to refer to Dingle, Tom B (talk) 16:45, 2 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
