AXS.com for critical reception[edit]

Hello. I plan to expand the critical reception section, and I found this review on a site here: https://www.axs.com/review-maroon-5-s-red-pill-blues-another-step-forward-for-the-band-125023. I'm not too sure if it's a reliable source, but the author is of one "Brittany Frederick" who I did a web search on. She appears to be an "award-winning entertainment and motorsports journalist, screenwriter and novelist" based on her website over here: https://brittany-frederick.com/, but it could be self-promo content. Is it advisable to use this source for the Wiki page? I do agree that the review was well written and thought of. aNode (discuss) 09:23, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Singles on Standard vs Deluxe Edition[edit]

I wanted to open a formal discussion on where we stand with "Cold (Maroon 5 song)" and "Don't Wanna Know" being classified as the first and second singles from the album? They were released in promotion of the album and are only included on the deluxe edition of the album. However they are singles and I think WP:BLUE applies here because they are featured on the album. The deluxe edition was released simultaneously alongside the standard version. There are also other high profile instances of this such as "Super Bass" by Nicki Minaj from the album Pink Friday (deluxe edition).

References

Billboard 14th Feb - Calls "Don't Wanna Know" first song from album, "Cold" second song
Planet Radio, a UK radio station/media outlet "What Lovers Do" is the third single from their upcoming album"

Rollingstone “What Lovers Do” follows Maroon 5’s previously released singles “Cold,” which features Future, and “Don’t Wanna Know,” with Kendrick Lamar..

Would appreciate it if people could add their comments to the discussion below. To start off I've added my opinion:

Include as singles - per WP:BLUE and the evidence above, plus consensus against other similar releases → Lil-℧niquԐ 1 - { Talk } - 21:08, 14 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Ariana Grande's "Focus" was included in a special edition of Dangerous Woman, but it does not appear as its lead single. What would make the difference between both cases? Cornerstonepicker (talk)
