Quotes around song or track titles[edit]

According to the guidelines for the Songs WikiProject quotes are meant to go around song titles, not track titles. This is confirmed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Music/MUSTARD/Format. --JD554 (talk) 12:45, 22 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This statement is confusing, since a song title IS a track title. Please clarify. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.160.142.179 (talk) 02:34, 24 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Removed "Shelter from the Storm" reference for inaccuracy and source issues[edit]

I removed the following sentence:

"Fix You" was also played on Shelter from the Storm.<ref name="issue" />

for several reasons:

  1. Shelter from the Storm is about a 1975 Bob Dylan song, not a 2005 event or recording, making the sentence nonsensical.
  2. The cited source doesn't mention "Shelter from the Storm".
  3. That source does suggest "Fix You" was used in at least two hurricane relief benefits, but I couldn't find the name "Shelter from the Storm" attached to any in the time I had to research it.

I suspect that this can be salvaged with a little more research and better citations, so I'm hoping regular visitors here can help. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 08:55, 23 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Has had a verification tag since July 2017 and multiple parts clearly read like a bunch of bullet points thrown together. The "in popular culture" section is bulleted and has numerous that don't qualify WP:SONGCOVER. This should've been delisted years ago. – zmbro (talk) 02:46, 29 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delist Agree with nom. The "In popular culture" section is definitely the worst offender. That section didn't even exist in the reviewed version, but it's really gone to seed with non-notable, unreferenced covers since then. Also, some prose issues, e.g.
