There's a spelling mistake under Career. In the 2014-2016: Beginnings section "discovered" is spelt "disocvered" in the third sentence. So just want to correct that! Camjamgra (talk) 08:31, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Former Home

Most central Scotland towns do tend to blend, Mr Capaldi's family house is in whitburn not bathgate as the source it links to confirms eg whitburn near bathgate 77.99.236.36 (talk) 21:56, 8 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

(Moved down here by Catfish Jim and the soapdish):
Lewis is from Whitburn West Lothian not Bathgate Kenni8761 (talk) 20:46, 24 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I've corrected this in the article/ Catfish Jim and the soapdish 13:13, 25 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Glastonbury 2023

On 24 June 2023 he performed on the Pyramid Stage at the Glastonbury Festival. At the end of his set he announced: "I feel like I'll be taking another wee break for the next few weeks, you might not see me even for the rest of the year – but when I do come back and I do see you, I hope you're up for watching."^[1] 86.187.160.141 (talk) 20:08, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Lewis Capaldi is now longer dating Ellie. He is dating influencer, Amanda Neil, or LipglossandConverse on TikTok. 2600:6C5D:567F:6CB1:1502:D81A:421E:9FE9 (talk) 14:19, 13 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relation to Peter Capaldi

The article used to cite the pair's relationship states that Peter is Lewis' dad's second cousin, which would make the pair second cousins once removed, not first cousins twice removed. The latter would be if Peter was the first cousin of any of Lewis' grandparents. This should be changed to match the description in the newspaper article itself. 2.25.38.28 (talk) 19:04, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
