... that Helena Springs is credited as co-writer with Bob Dylan on 19 songs, more than any of his other collaborators? Source: Michael Gray, The Bob Dylan Encyclopedia (2008 edition), page 642. Quote: "She co-wote a larger number of songs with him than any other collaborator in his career – nineteen"
Comment: Left the wording slightly open as to whether this is still a record (I believe it is) as the source is from 2008. Always open to any ALT suggestions.
Hook is interesting and length complaint. Article is new enough, created on April 16. No obvious copyvio, article is NPOV, no image to review, and QPQ done. The source is written by Michael Gray who is a known expert on Dylan so is RS. Given Dylan's recent activities and age, I think we can reasonably extend some common sense to suppose that the record has not been surpassed in the intervening 13 years since the book's publication.

Can't any other parameters like children or spouse be added to the infobox; try genres too if you can source any in the body?
Amended. I made "Infobox musical artist" a module as it doesn't support the "children" parameter. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 09:35, 1 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
All done exept ref 19. I note that there is currently no consensus on the reliability of The Evening Standard at WP:RSP. The information cited is the opinion of a reviewer, rather than any facts which could be disputed, and any alternate source would be no more reliable in stating that reviwer's opinion. Also, from my reading of the discussion on Wikipedia, most of the concerns about The Evening Standard as a source relate to the paper since (or shortly before) 2009, whereas this review was back in 1987. I'd argue that in this particular instance, it's OK the keep the article as-is. Let me know what you think. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 07:58, 1 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
On hold until all of the issues are fixed! --K. Peake 10:31, 30 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
Many thanks K. Peake. I've replied above. (I also added one further newspaper review to the article.) Regards, BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 09:35, 1 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
BennyOnTheLoose Same to you for going over all of these issues and I am fine with the Evening Standard usage, however can you use infobox person instead like articles such as Kanye West do? --K. Peake 21:23, 1 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
K. Peake I've amended the infobox. I also added a couple of external links. Regards, BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 11:04, 2 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
✓Pass now, this looks great and I made one brief fix to the infobox! --K. Peake 11:10, 2 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
