This caught my attention on Discord, and I couldn't resist. :) Expect comments in the next few days! —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 23:06, 8 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A quick comment before I dive any deeper: there seems to be some close paraphrasing with this source. See the report. Most of the red highlights are the song's title or quoted lyrics, but there is some text from the article that's too similar for my liking. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 23:11, 8 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I addressed one of the questionable bits (which, to clear up, I did not write), but other than that it just seems to have a high rating because of how many times the song title is said. This shouldn't be a problem now. λ NegativeMP1 05:12, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Drive-by comment: I was adding some info to the article when I noticed some repeated citations and crosslinks to news sources appearing in a seemingly arbitrary fashion. May be worth doing a quick, second pass to clean up the article's references a bit. Leafy46 (talk) 15:43, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Unless there's an area I'm missing, this is only an issue with the references auto-generated by the charts template, which is an issue I noticed and have no idea how to fix since it's related to templates. I'll run a second check through the maim prose sources, though. λ NegativeMP1 16:32, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Just from a quick look, refs #17 and #18 (Rolling Stone No. 958) are duplicated, for instance -- as for the chart templates, if you go to the specific single chart and click "show all", there should be a field called "refgroup" which allows you to use that chart reference in a <ref name=whatever> fashion.
