Background

Teased at the end of the "Good Days" music video was "Shirt", released as a single on October 28, 2022, and its video's outro featured a song fans began calling "Blind". -- does its video here refer to "Shirt"? If so, it needs to be clarified, i.e. the latter video's outro

on set lists for her international SOS Tour -- on the set list of her SOS Tour. I think which runs from 2023 to 2024 can be dropped.
The set lists were changing a lot between and within legs. E.g. "
Ghost in the Machine" did not get love until
New York City; "20 Something" was performed after
Salt Lake City during the second NA leg; "Prom" and "
DTM (Diamond Boy)"
were September 2023 additions; "
2AM" wasn't on the set list until SZA
went down under; same with "
Far". Apologies for the Twitter sources; no RS is cooperating especially the Australian ones. Concur with dropping the years + "international" descriptor though

I read somewhere that the publisher template should not be used to bypass the italics (I swear it was a MOS thing but I can't recall which page)
Ref Ref 60 - link Billboard as you did with every instance|
Done. FWIW GA reviews shouldn't necessarily feature these comments; as long as the citations are understable they should pass GA
While source quality is somewhat less strict in the GAN process. Source formatting standards remain the same across FA/FL/GA spaces, where works that are cited can be linked on the first instance or every instance, either is acceptable so long as it is consistent throughout the article.
Spotchecks

Ref 42 - ok
Ref 53 - in Dutch, but a little translation confirms chart placement - ok
Ref 61 - supports certification - ok
