That link is dormant. Maybe we should update and have a debate then put that as an official rule. I feel like there might many debates about this in the future. DatBoy101 ( talk) 07:00, 14 November 2017 (UTC)
Hi, I think we should discuss the inclusion of "Spotify Session" on this wiki page. The reasoning being is that it's questionable if its a true release by the artist. These works are the result of an interview session with Spotify and are the equivalent to the artist appearing on a talk show and performing, and then uploading it to their YouTube channel - which is not considered a new release by that artist. It has no presence outside of the one platform, they are not promoted by the artists either. Also just to keep things consistent, few to no artists list these works on their discography pages, such as Sia, Tove Lo, Kylie Minogue, Jason Derulo, Meghan Trainor, The 1975 and All Time Low to list just a very few amount of the total amount of these works. @Ss112 Mikgregor ( talk) 18:16, 8 December 2017 (UTC)
Homesick was released as a single, but only in the Netherlands and Belgium. [1] [2] Shouldn't it be listed under singles instead of 'other charted songs' in this case?

This article weirdly uses the (sales/streaming only) Single Top 100 Chart instead of the usual all-round Top 40 Chart, which is also used by the Dutch populace: https://www.top40.nl/top40-artiesten/dua-lipa. BoomBoomBeem ( talk) 14:24, 20 January 2018 (UTC)

Dua Lipa album has been certified Gold in Australia by ARIA - http://www.aria.com.au/pages/AlbumAccreds2018.htm 114.77.53.199 ( talk) 09:11, 19 November 2018 (UTC)
The songs "No Lie", "Scared to Be Lonely", "One Kiss" and "Electricity" are included on Dua Lipa: Complete Edition despite not promoting the album. The songs should not list "TBA" or "non-album single" when they are included on this album. Discography pages don't list the album that the songs promote, they list any album the song is included on. See "Bitches Broken Hearts", "Lovely" and "Come Out and Play" on Billie Eilish discography or "Monopoly" on Ariana Grande discography. Those songs don't promote the albums listed but they don't say "non-album single". I don't know why people don't want the same to be done here. In conclusion, I believe Dua Lipa: Complete Edition should be added as the album for the songs "No Lie", "Scared to Be Lonely", "One Kiss" and "Electricity".

@ LOVI33: Just one thing, when you say "As of February 2021 the record has sold 6 million worldwide," it'd be nice if you specified whether you're referring to Dua Lipa: Complete Edition or One Kiss. So just "the album" or "the single" instead of "the record".
Worked on the lead section and a few of the notes. I split up the lead into four paragraphs where I thought made logical sense; I feel it helps the text flow better, since there are a lot of song and people names. A worthy FLC candidate! :) Let me know if my job was satisfactory. Cheers, Ovinus ( talk) 08:13, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
"Real Groove (Studio 2054 Remix)" should classify as a promotional single. The criterion at WP:SINGLE? are generally established norms which aren't always the most accurate (see the lead). Even so, "Real Groove" satisfies two out of four of the criterion, including the last which can be "nuanced". The Official Charts Company did refer to it as a single, but I've noticed they have often referred to promo singles as singles when referring to their charting. For example, Little Mix's recent promo singles from their album Confetti ( [1]). Highly reputable source Billboard referred to it as a remixed version of the original, leading me to think that it should satisfy criterion 3 under promotional singles of WP:SINGLE?: "If a song is released in the form of dance remixes independent of an album, it is usually considered a promotional single". Considering the remix was released very soon following the original's release and it received limited promotion, I would say it is pretty obvious this is the case; seems to me it was released to promote the original version's single release, like what Lipa does with many of her singles. With all these cases, I would say that "Real Groove (Studio 2054 Remix)" is an appropriate promotional single. LOVI 33 01:08, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
singleonce, but it generally refers to the promo single as a
release(which could be as an official single or as a promo single), a
taster(which could be used for any type of release, independent or not), and a
track(which could, once again, be used for any type of release). Besides, it would be pointless to try to say it's the third official Confetti single, as there are plenty of reliable sources (which I am almost certain include both OCC and Billboard) that call " Sweet Melody" and " Confetti" the third and fourth singles off of Confetti, respectively. But, for this case, no one has provided any evidence that the song is not a single (like I just did above with "Not a Pop Song"), so I would go ahead and trust the OCC article. Someone also argued above that the remix was sent to radio as an official single, but I will have to check that out for myself. Update: The remix was released to Russian radio (Pop, Dance, and 80s formats) on 15 January 2021 ( source), so I am confident that the radio release alongside OCC calling it a single is enough for it to be a single. But, I could be totally wrong, so please {{ ping}} me if anything I said needs debunking. Thanks! D🐶ggy54321 ( let's chat!) 02:52, 21 May 2021 (UTC) (updated 02:59, 21 May 2021 (UTC))
