I've just removed a claim it was number 1 on iTunes in 19 countries because the information is not supported by the BBC ref. It is sourced from here, but I suspect this page is not static and will change regularly. Since the iTunes sentence forms part of a potential DYK hook it needs to be well-referenced or it will be rejected. On the other hand, this site says it is number 1 in 47 countries. Not sure if we can use that as a reference. Any thoughts, guys? Paul MacDermott ( talk) 17:40, 6 October 2012 (UTC)

I'll be glad to take this review. Initial comments to follow in the next 1-3 days. Thanks in advance for your work on this one! -- Khazar2 ( talk) 13:52, 3 June 2013 (UTC)
Thanks everybody for their work on this one. This appears solid in its research and content so far, and should reach GA without too much trouble. I do think it could use some more work on copyediting--see below.
I'd like to put this on hold for a bit so that more copyediting can be done. The text seems to have a lot of basic errors still, like "Adele revealed that they she and Epworth", "who played it the film producer Barbara Broccoli and James Bond portrayer Daniel Craig", "an uniting factor", "He describe it", or " The song intentionally references Monty Norman's "famous four line motif" after the first chorus. the man who wrote the theme tune for the first Bond film, Dr. No (1962)." (I've fixed all of these but the last.) I don't mind doing some minor copyediting as I go, but this feels like it still needs another pass by the original editors before it's ready for the final polish. Let me know when you think it's ready and I'll start again from the top. -- Khazar2 ( talk) 01:25, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
Did some cleanup (apparently some sections had both spelling problems and repeated info), and asked another major contributor to help. igordebraga ≠ 02:32, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
Okay, this looks pretty close to ready for GA. I've listed a few action points here, and a few checks remain, but this solid work and seems ripe for promotion. Thanks to everybody working on this one. -- Khazar2 ( talk) 01:51, 6 June 2013 (UTC)
Many thanks Khazar2, I think I've covered all the above, but if I've missed anything, or introduced further errors, please let me know and I'll sort it out. Cheers - SchroCat ( talk) 08:14, 6 June 2013 (UTC)

Skyfall (Adele song) → Skyfall (song) – Unnecessary disambiguation; no other song with the title has an article here on Wikipedia. PopLizard86427 ( talk) 23:01, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
further disambiguation is only required when multiple songs of the same name have articles. As no other songs of the same name have articles, this article should be named Skyfall (song). Lennart97 ( talk) 11:58, 29 September 2021 (UTC)
Is the lyric "You may have my number, You can take my name" a callback to "You Know My Name" by Chris Cornell from Casino Royale? That would be good continuity and a nice tribute if so. But it might just be coincidence. -- Jameboy ( talk) 15:07, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
