Potential music video/Music video?[edit]

BeatlesLedTV You did say in your GA article review to changed the title to 'Potential music video' or 'Rumoured music video'. I did so into the potential one, but looking at it again shouldn't it be titled 'Music video' even if no video was released but one was reported to have possibly been recorded? It's hardly misleading since many other Wiki articles include the title that don't have videos released. --Kyle Peake (talk) 22:53, 23 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Kyle Peake I think it remain as "potential music video" since the text states that one being shot might have been a rumor (change rumour to rumor in the article btw), so one may or may not exist. Unless one could specifically ask West himself or someone close to West and get a reliably sourced answer as to whether there actually was a music video for this song, we can't verify anything. So it works better not being just "music video" as that implies that there was one, but was never released (as what happened to "Waves"). BeatlesLedTV (talk) 02:21, 24 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

BeatlesLedTV Yeah I understand your point of view further now. And sorry about it saying rumour instead of rumor, I'm English so will sometimes get the non-American spellings. --Kyle Peake (talk) 07:12, 24 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Kyle Peake All good, just one of those small things you gotta look out for, BeatlesLedTV (talk) 15:31, 24 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Producers?[edit]

Should the producers be mentioned in the "Composition and recording" section? ---Another Believer _(Talk) 19:10, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No, they are already referenced in the infobox and personnel. --Kyle Peake (talk) 16:51, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@BeatlesLedTV: Thoughts? ---Another Believer _(Talk) 18:18, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Another Believer Kyle Peake I only mentioned a couple producers in the body of "Ultralight Beam" but mainly just left it for the infobox and personnel. I think it's fine to leave it for just those unless a reliable source specifically describes one of the producers and/or writers having significant involvement in the song's production. If it's notable enough, it should be mentioned. BeatlesLedTV (talk) 18:24, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Syntax problems with Template:Infobox song[edit]

Something is wrong with Template:Infobox song in this article. If you edit the article in preview mode, it shows a number of errors related to Template:Extra track listing. I'm not sure if some of the parameters intended for Infobox song are accidentally included in Template:Extra track listing, but something needs to be sorted there. – Jonesey95 (talk) 20:38, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

On second thought, maybe be patient for a few days. I found a related conversation at the template's talk page. All of the song- and album-related infoboxes went through a big parameter conversion a few months ago, and it looks like maybe a few articles were missed. I suspect that the editors who did the conversion will be able to fix the remaining articles with old parameters. – Jonesey95 (talk) 20:59, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Jonesey95 I have removed the template as it is unneeded. --Kyle Peake (talk) 21:10, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
