Hello! The chart position is not correct. The A-Side "Bluebirds" charted in the US and UK Charts, the B-Side did not chart! --81.223.57.245 08:01, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Overall GA Review[edit]

Good luck! It's a great piece of work. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 22:48, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - MarioSoulTruthFan I put in place the changes I could make. In response to your skepticism about the liner notes, would you rather I call it a CD booklet? The liner notes are a pamphlet in the case with descriptions of the sessions, the songs, and charts.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 05:17, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I was skeptic because I never saw liner notes with charts performances in them. No, just leave it at that. Is there another way I could verify those chart performances? MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 11:51, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Also, Manson was aware he was uncredited afterwards. I included his name in the infobox because he did write the majority of the song. If that is incorrect, I can remove it. In a similar situation, "Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On" credits Roy Hall, even though he was left off the original release. But like I said, it can be removed without much grievance from me.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 09:10, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
If you could make an additional note it would be for the best. It's easier I have seen lots of songs with that. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 11:51, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Btw could you add a source for the single version? Let me know once you address all the issues on the article. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 12:10, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
MarioSoulTruthFan I now noted Manson was uncredited in the infobox. I sourced the single's time length. Here are two reliable sources to verify my chart positions: US and UK.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 18:25, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@TheGracefulSlick: just address the rest of the issues and we will be done. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 19:54, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
MarioSoulTruthFan I think that covers everything: the dashes were added, I specified U.S. dollars, and I used more of my own words in the reception. As for the "by Brian" concern, I didn't say "by Brian Wilson" because he shares the same last name as Carl. It is, therefore, appropriate to write "by Brian and Carl Wilson".TheGracefulSlick (talk) 22:48, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@TheGracefulSlick: I will assume you didn't find anything else regarding if Manson discover he was not credited after the release or before. Nevertheless, great job! Keep up this kind of work. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 23:00, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Throughout the years, "Never Learn Not to Love" has appeared on several other Beach Boys compilations and bootlegs.[24][edit]

Provided cite for this claim https://www.allmusic.com/song/never-learn-not-to-love-mt0014981962 only list two bootlegs and two editions of an one various artist psych compilation (Ah Feel Like Ahcid (24 American Psychedelic Artefacts From The EMI Vaults) ) - doesn't list it as appearing on any offical Beach Boys compilations.

According to the listings on discogs apart from the lp & cd releases twofer releases that combined their album 20/20 with other Beach Boys' albums the only Beach Boys compilations it appeared on are two obscure records from 1980 & 1983 (The Capitol Years & The Beach Boys story). 109.144.218.0 (talk) 09:39, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
