Infobox

[edit]

The infobox kept glitching every time I tested it in my sandbox [1]. If someone can add the singles chronology for Trainor, Eyre and Montana please do so.--MaranoFan (talk) 19:36, 20 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Final comments and verdict

[edit]
  • Thanks a lot, your speed is indeed very impressive! I've done everything and left some comments, the main one being, why do we need to spell out Eyre and French Montana's full names several times.--NØ 10:31, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • MOS:MR states: "People who are best known by a pseudonym should be subsequently referred to by their pseudonymous surnames, unless they do not include a recognizable surname in the pseudonym". In this particular situation, "Eyre" and "Montana" are both clearly distinguishable surnames. As for the reception, Radio.com praised Montana's verse, Time praised the production, Idolator praised Trainor and Eyre's vocal performance, and Capital FM praised Sigala and Eyre's pairing. Thus it is virtually impossible to condense this into one statement other than stating they're all positive reviews. A Google search doesn't turn up any more reviews.--NØ 12:27, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Considering there are no other people or songwriters with the same last name involved, I do see the repetition of last names as unnecessary. Once readers see Ella Eyre (with the wikilink) there’s no reason or possibility for them to then assume "Eyre" is referring to someone else.—NØ 18:48, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
