Infobox
[edit]- I can't find information in the article to verify that the song was recorded from 2009–10
- Two different versions were released as such, one from each year. Aaron • You Da One 13:12, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
Lead
[edit]- Burke stated that the song was written when her Aunt told the singer about how her... → "Aunt" does not need to be capitalized
Done Aaron • You Da One
- In response, Burke asked her Aunt why he was letting the silence in their relationship... → "Aunt" does not need to be capitalized
Done Aaron • You Da One
- "The Silence" is an R&B influenced power ballad; instrumentation consists of a piano, a guitar and drums. → Get rid of semicolon and combine into one sentence
Done Aaron • You Da One
- The singer has performed the song on The Paul O'Grady Show and The X Factor; it was included on the set list of her All Night Long Tour (2011). → Make two different sentences
Done Aaron • You Da One
Background and release
[edit]- No issues
Composition and lyrics
[edit]- "The Silence" is a power ballad,[6] which lasts for a duration of 3:35 (3 minutes, 35 seconds).[7] → Not necessary to have brackets for the duration of the song
Done Aaron • You Da One
- It draws influence from the music genre of R&B.[8] Instrumentation consists of a piano, a guitar and drums.[8][9] → Combine into two sentences
- It is two sentences already. Aaron • You Da One
Not done My bad; I ment to say combine into one sentence. Rp0211 (talk2me)
Done Aaron • You Da One
- The songs begins with the lyrics "Ohhhhhhhh, you lift me up."[8] → Not necessary in this context
- It's a Composition and lyrics section, it's acceptable to put the opening lyric in. Aaron • You Da One
Not done It is acceptable to put it in. But, in this instance, it just seems sort of random to put the lyrics in without any explanation of what they mean or how it sets the tone for the song, etc. Rp0211 (talk2me)
- I don't think it's random to include lyrics when it's a Composition and lyrics section. Aaron • You Da One 21:09, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
- Consider putting in an audio sample of the song that fits accordingly to WP:SAMPLE
- I will ask someone to do it. Aaron • You Da One
Response
[edit]- ...and leaped to number 16 the following week after live performance on The X Factor.[13] → Source does not specify "X Factor" performance
- Removed. Aaron • You Da One
- General comment: In regards to chart performance, specify what it debuted at and what it peaked at, and not what it was the following week after it debuted
- It's a small section, so a bit of information about its charting is fine. Aaron • You Da One
- General prose of chart performance subsection needs to be proofread and edited
- I've gone through it. Aaron • You Da One
Music video
[edit]- A screenshot of the music video would add further depth to this section
- I've posted a note on the talk page as I don't know how to upload one. Aaron • You Da One
Live performances
[edit]- Burke performed the song on the semi final of the seventh series of The X Factor on 5 December 2010.[25] → No wiki-link necessary for "the semi final of the seventh series"
Done Aaron • You Da One
- The song was included on the set list of Burke's All Night Long Tour (2011).[26] → Add "also" between "was" and "included"
Done Aaron • You Da One
Formats
[edit]- Rename section to "Track listing"
Done Aaron • You Da One
Charts
[edit]- Use a chart template such as Template:Singlechart for this section
- Doesn't have to be changed. There is no rule that says that template should be used instead. Aaron • You Da One
- Combine all different charts into one that goes from 2009 to 2011
- Different yearly peaks are actually supposed to be put into separate tables now. Aaron • You Da One
References
[edit]- Reference 4 → Needs the link to the actual video, or else the source is unreliable
- Cite interview template is designed for when a video, such as from Youtube, cannot be placed in the link as Youtube is not the copyright holder, however the interview is actually on Youtube, therefore this is a reliable source. Aaron • You Da One
- Reference 6 → "BBC Music" should not be italicized
Done Aaron • You Da One
- Reference 7 → "iTunes Store (Great Britain)" should not be italicized
- Ooops!
Done Aaron • You Da One
- Ooops!
- Reference 8 → Provide external link to website to verify source
- It was reached as a consensus that the Musicnotes URL should not be included in the template, hence why it isn't there. Aaron • You Da One
- Reference 10 → Needs the link to the actual video, or else the source is unreliable
- Same as reference 4 explanation. Aaron • You Da One
