Update the charts section to add the Billboard Hot 100 #1 peak, per source. Trust, Gary (January 17, 2017). "Ed Sheeran Debuts Atop Hot 100 With 'Shape of You' & in Top 10 With 'Castle on the Hill'". Billboard. Retrieved January 18, 2017. — IB [ Poke ] 04:57, 18 January 2017 (UTC)

Please up the Billboard Mainstream Top 40 chart position from 24 to 17, and update the accessdate to 18 Janaury 2017. Thanks. — Calvin999 10:22, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
According to this, [2], dancehall and tropical house aren't the same and one song cannot be both, Richie Stephens and Mr. Vegas also hold these views (see here [3]).-- Theo Mandela ( talk) 23:07, 12 April 2017 (UTC)

Please add this, it should be included due to its uniqueness in chart history:
"Shape of You is one of the all-time most successful songs worldwide, charting at No. 1 for at least 10 weeks in 15 countries: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Portugal, Sweden, Switzerland, the UK and the USA."
Maybe someone could check whether this happened in that many countries before. I doubt it, but who knows... -- 94.46.67.91 ( talk) 00:15, 14 April 2017 (UTC)

talk 03:45, 15 April 2017 (UTC)One Dance spent 10 or more weeks at No. 1 in the following countries: Ireland, the Netherlands, New Zealand, the US. I think there is a difference between 4 and 15 countries. "Successful" is an opinionated word, but what about "countries with doubl-digit amounts of weeks at No. 1"? That is indeed factual and even if we exclude Portugal for the reason of fairness (songs might have been released before the introduction of the chart and therefore not been given the chance to make it to No. 1 there), I cannot think of another single that reached No. 1 for that many weeks in that many countries. -- 94.46.73.142 ( talk) 01:58, 17 April 2017 (UTC)
Edge4life42, please explain why you undid my edit. Per MOS:SEEALSO the links in the "See also" section should be limited to a reasonable number, and also if there are a lot of links in that section it doesn't encourage people to click to an article which is what the purpose of "See also" section is. -- Hddty. ( talk) 06:31, 1 December 2017 (UTC)
Hddty. It's okay to have that many look at Despacito's article plus you removed all of the important ones including UK's and the Billboard 100.
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Shape of You's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 12:22, 6 May 2018 (UTC)
There are some all-time charts coming from (country)charts.com, but, if this is not a mistake, it's based upon points recorded by the website and not upon sales (199 points for a number-one song during one week, 1 point for a song that peaks at number 200). I deleted the french chart. But maybe we can delete others based upon this rules. -- Land and travel ( talk) 16:10, 15 June 2019 (UTC)

If Ed Sheeran is English, as stated in the article, why does he use American forms as when he sings "(...) And how your family is doing okay" instead of the usual British form "(...) And how your family are doing okay"? -- Fandelasketchup ( talk) 14:54, 12 November 2020 (UTC)
