This article and the whole cluster is really amazing! Well done, Meg! --Larry Sanger 08:49, 7 March 2008 (CST)

Thanks, Larry. I really appreciate the kudos. Meg Ireland 17:28, 9 March 2008 (CDT)

Great work! The only thing I'm seeing which is slightly jarring is the Related Articles subpage. The list of bootlegs needs to be on the Discography subpage, and the Related Articles page ought to follow the hierarchical form used on other RA subpages - see Biology/Related Articles for a standard example. The point of the RA subpages is that people can use them to navigate to higher level categories (in this case: popular music, rock music), to subtopics (which would, in this case, be albums, musicians, tours and songs that have their own article cluster), and related articles (for musical subjects, that would be similar bands and peformers, related genres and bands that members of this band have been in before or after this band - in this case, The Yardbirds, XYZ etc.). Currently, the Related Articles page doesn't actually link to any other related articles. The list of all the people who have been in the band should probably be in Catalogs. Congratulations and thank you for all the hard work you've obviously put in on these pages! –Tom Morris 14:10, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

Cheers Tom, Done. Meg Ireland 06:22, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

This is looking really good

This band has defined rock music worldwide. I couldn't imagine anyone really doing them justice, but this article seems to touch on most, if not all of the defining characteristics of "what Led Zeppelin" is all about.

I do have one stylistic suggestion however. Perhaps place the image of the symbols from LZ:IV directly above, or directly below the main picture in the infobox? Those symbols were, and still are a prominent part of the Led Zeppelin image, and shoud have just as prominent a place in the article.

Otherwise, AMAZING job.Drew R. Smith 13:06, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
