Why is the article for such a trivial person so long? Yes, she was married to John Lennon. Fine.

	Yoko Ono has been listed as one of the Music good articles under the good article criteria. If you can improve it further, please do so. If it no longer meets these criteria, you can reassess it.

Orphaned references in Yoko Ono

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Yoko Ono's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

"Cut piece" on the lead

I think the lead is too long. Four paragraphs should be enough per WP:LEADLENGTH. I'm not sure what to trim down, can somebody advise? Ritchie333 21:21, 20 July 2014 (UTC)

Agreed. It is a tad extensive. Hotcop2 (talk) 22:22, 20 July 2014 (UTC)

I've trimmed a tiny bit, but I think it's fine. She's accomplished alot in multiple fields. Look at George Harrison's article, which is starred, for a comparison. Or Justin Bieber's who is one-fourth her age.--Aichik (talk) 20:49, 21 August 2014 (UTC)

Marriage to Anthony Cox

It says 1962 - 1963 in side bar. Cox and Ono divorced on February 2, 1969. As is stated on his wiki page.

I moved this here

because checking this claim on the dance chart link to reveals only 4 such hits. The wikipedia chart is not very up-to-date, so if someone knows where to check this, please do so.

Since 2003, eleven of her songs, mostly remixes of her older work, have hit No. 1 on the US dance chart.
