Why is Meghan Trainor linked on ref 14 but not ref 9? Also, shouldn't it cite Epic Records as publisher and her as author?
I was advised against putting the label as the publisher at an FAC, apparently it causes an internal ref error that is visible when the page is edited.
The sentence "features American singer-songwriter Teddy Swims" is included in the Background section and sourced to
this. Her recording it as a duet with Swims is also reliably sourced and included in the Composition and lyrics section, and a comment about them sharing vocal chemistry on it from a reliable critic is also present in the Reception section. Introducing a wikilink in the user field of the cite tweet template produces errors so I won't be able to do that one. Regards.--NØ09:35, 16 December 2022 (UTC)reply
The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as
this nomination's talk page,
the article's talk page or
Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
Well, as you know, I really want the slot for any of my nominations. With this one, I framed the hooks with your suggestion in mind. ALT2 talks about Trainor's songwriting, which I think people might be able to visualize better if accompanied by a picture. The other two hooks also talk about Trainor engaged in certain activities. Unless I'm still getting it wrong, in which case I would request you to help me find a hook for which the image slot would make sense. Regards.--NØ05:44, 17 December 2022 (UTC)reply

MaranoFan: my apologies if I wasn't clear – I generally don't like hooks in the lead slot that divert views to a side link, away from the bolded article. If Trainor is both pictured and linked in the hook, she'll divert views away from "Bad for Me", which is something I generally try to avoid. The other reason, specifically for works in particular, is that there's nothing overly special about this image for this specific nomination. If I put this image in the image slot for this hook, there's no reason I shouldn't do it for the next four Meghan Trainor songs that come through DYK, and that's not a road I want to go down. If you'd like to get an image slot, I suggest getting an artist to DYK, rather than a work. Copyrighted works are generally pretty hard to picture. That said, someone might promote this with an image anyway, but I'm not really inclined to myself. Sorry for the misunderstanding!

That's totally fine and I'll hold out hope that another promoter will promote this DYK with the image. Cheers!--NØ05:24, 20 December 2022 (UTC)reply
