I thought badges were automatic now. Maybe the job runs overnight?

The solo page has changed, but the FP entries aren't live yet, so maybe the badge will change when they've been fixed?

There's a Beatles' connection too, which I wrote up in a separate section, "Across the Universe" - I wonder if you've read that BB?

...Just because there are more articles about the Isle of Wight than most other countries in the world, including other parts of the UK like Wales or Northern Ireland... smiley - winkeye

(The only countries with more articles about them than the Isle of Wight are Scotland, Ireland, Germany, Australia, Canada and the USA, but I'm catching up on Ireland and Germany.)

(GB - loved the article. All articles should have a Beatles section in, when appropriatesmiley - musicalnote).
