Orphaned references in Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "Canada":

From Firework (song): "Canadian Hot 100". Billboard. Retrieved February 27, 2011.
From We Found Love: "We Found Love - Rihanna". Billboard. Retrieved 2012-02-24.
From Lady Gaga: "Lady Gaga Chart History: Billboard Canadian Hot 100". Billboard. Archived from the original on November 2, 2017. Retrieved November 18, 2017.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 02:21, 24 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
