Gagaluv1 please stop removing the music video credits. Your only arguments for not including the credits are "an unnecessary detail that few would be interested in, it's not standard to put in articles, and it takes up a large part of an already very large article." Firstly, you can never predict was users would want to read, and it is always good to have lots of information. Just because it isn't in a lot of articles, doesn't mean it shouldn't be included. Finally, yes it is a large article, but it doesn't look like we will need to split it any time soon. As the article is pretty much finished besides a commercial performance section, we can probably assume it wont need to split it. At the end, it is sourced information and there really isn't any good reason to remove it. LOVI 33 23:58, 28 October 2020 (UTC)
Since there is so much information in "The Blessed Madonna remix" section, and it's promoting other body of work than original, shouldn't we split the site into two? Like " Ain't it Funny" and " Ain't It Funny (Murder Remix)". infsai ( dyskusja) 12:56, 11 March 2021 (UTC)
Not opposed to split, but also don't feel strongly absolutely must be done. Be bold! --- Another Believer ( Talk) 22:15, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
I support to split the articles, I also consider that there is a bulk of content in one. Good luck Infsai. Alexismata7 ( talk) 22:26, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
Thanks for splitting! Should Levitating (The Blessed Madonna Remix) be mentioned in the intro and article body/prose for easier access? Unless I'm overlooking, the remix is only linked in the infobox and track listing. --- Another Believer ( Talk) 14:53, 26 March 2021 (UTC)
@ LOVI33: Hey, I note the RIAA cert as solo version at this edition considering these reasons:
I think there are two solutions: adding the note or separate certs of the remix version. Regards. :)

Per WP:NSONGS This the same song, but remixed with additional vocals. Richhoncho ( talk) 13:44, 9 April 2021 (UTC)
At the charts topic there should be a different part with levitating solo original version chart peaks. Aridabestbro ( talk) 21:20, 10 May 2021 (UTC)
So we split the article, then merged the two articles, and now there's a tag suggesting a split because the article's too long?

I don't see the claim being made here yet but I have seen it being made on the DaBaby and DaBaby discography pages so I would like to clarify some things about what happens when Billboard changes how a song is credited (due to a remix). The change in credit looks retroactive, but it is actually not. This is a bug with their website. Now, Billboard's rules state that whichever version of the song accounts for the majority (over 50%) of a song's activity gets credited. However, there is a bug that results in whichever version is currently credited being credited for every week, regardless of which version actually charted at the time. Just look at the fact that the DaBaby remix could be seen on the Bubbling Under chart for the week of June 29, 2020, when viewed in May 2021 while DaBaby was credited on most charts despite the version with him on it not even existing at the time. The Blessed Madonna version actually charted that week. Even now the solo version appears (with the DaBaby cover art oddly enough) when you look at it now. Billboard themselves noted that for historical purposes whichever version was credited the week a song peaks counts towards the artists' discographies even if the version is not the same version accounting for the majority of activity in the following weeks. (See this article). CAMERAwMUSTACHE ( talk) 22:52, 30 August 2021 (UTC)
I started to read this article, then noticed how long it was. It seems at times far too detailed and more like a detailed biography of a song rather than an encyclopedic entry. I checked the article size on XTools and can see it's 6,679 words in 36 sections. For contrast, Yesterday by The Beatles is only 3,437 words in 15 sections and Hello by Adele is 3,318 words in 19 sections. I know this article has a lot of references and chart information, but the whole thing seems a bit out of proportion to the song's notability. I was going to add the "Overly detailed" template, but wasn't sure. Seaweed ( talk) 18:23, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
