"The Line" single status

edit

Most sources, like Spin and Rolling Stone, just refer to it as a "song", not a "single". Please stop adding it as a single. Sergecross73 msg me 12:29, 12 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

UPDATE - After creating and writing the "The Line" article, I now see that sources are more split on this than I originally thought. I found over six that called it a single, and over six that just called it a song - very high profile, reliable sources fell on both sides of it. I'm no longer sure of how to classify it.

Even though the song was released online before the album, I wouldn't be surprised if it gets a proper radio release in the not so distant future as the same happened with the songs Congregation and Outside on the last album: they were both made available before the album's release but both got proper radio single releases some time after the album was released. If that happens with The Line then it can be a proper "single", if not one already.QuintusPetillius (talk) 17:50, 28 September 2017 (UTC)Reply
Very true. That thought had crossed my mind as well - the song really sounds more like a single than any other songs else left on the album. I just left a note on the talk page because, I figured with the high volume of traffic the articles are currently getting, there'd be a lot more of those tired "single/promotional single/just a song" arguments that pop up at a lot of album/song articles. Surprisingly, there really hasn't been much of it... Sergecross73 msg me 18:09, 28 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned references in Concrete and Gold

edit

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Concrete and Gold's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "rollingstone":

  • From Mantra (Dave Grohl song): "Dave Grohl's Sound City Players Pound Out 'Mantra' in the Studio - Premiere". Rolling Stone. March 7, 2013. Retrieved March 7, 2013.
  • From Halsey (singer): "Inside Halsey's Troubled Past, Chaotic Present". Rolling Stone. Retrieved March 8, 2017.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 20:46, 16 September 2017 (UTC)Reply
