Singles?[edit]

Question: Y2kcrazyjoker4, why inform in the infobox that the released songs are singles? If it's not on the official website, it's not a single. Gabriel bier ^talk 13:11, 16 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I honestly have no idea what qualifies as a single anymore. It feels like the distinction between "released song", "promotional single", and "commercial single" is increasingly hard to define. I don't think I would take U2's website as the gospel on what is considered a "single". Y2Kcrazyjoker4 (talk • contributions) 17:36, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Y2kcrazyjoker4: Yes, I share the same doubt. I believe that disclosing songs before release does not necessarily constitute a commercial or promotional single. At least on pt.wiki, I consider a lead single to be the songs that are included in the section corresponding to singles with cover art on the official website.
