Cite MTV as publisher instead for ref 11 with the wikilink
Cite The New York Times for ref 12 instead with the wikilink; when I italicise the work/website parameters in the review here, I am not telling you to add italics manually, instead I am doing it to show how the parameter looks when mentioning it myself.

Not done --Kyle Peake (talk) 08:13, 12 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

~~Cite Apple Music as the publisher instead for ref 14~~ It would be preferable for you to cite iTunes Store for consistent and yes, do put the countries in brackets throughout. --Kyle Peake (talk) 08:13, 12 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Not done --Kyle Peake (talk) 08:13, 12 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ref 49 is not exactly the same as ref 99, but they are very close and both lead to only the current chart(s); use the single chart template to cite Irish peak in the chart table and then employ a ref name so you can invoke it from there in the Commercial performance subsection

user: Kyle Peake all the ref numbers have changed while I was editing. What can I do to change them back to the original? DarklyShadows (talk) 20:56, 10 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

DarklyShadows Don't do that, just read my fourth comment and click on the bit that says this revision but keep them in the current order, though fix the refs as instructed since titles among other things will be the same currently. --Kyle Peake (talk) 05:46, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Kyle Peake I think I have done everything you requested. DarklyShadows (talk) 02:30, 12 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

DarklyShadows I'll take a look and plank the not done template on any of the things you have missed. --Kyle Peake (talk) 08:13, 12 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
