message: Apparently, there were two videos, then one got rejected. Geri Halliwell explains that a little bit in "If Only" if I remember well. The other video can be viewed on youtube I believe - or could at some point anyway. If anyone can find the reference in Geri's book I think that would be good - with the page, etc. Zigzig20s 06:15, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

*Overall: 
Nice work all round. My one complaint would be that four CD covers in the infobox is too many to constitute fair use. My knowledge of fair use and how it's done on Wikipedia is not the best, but it's not unknown for this to be a sticking point in an article. Might be a good idea deciding on the one or two most important and removing the rest. Well done. Chwech 21:37, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  i dont bellieve 

message: What does "the lyrics are a demand of sincerity" mean...? It's not even a coherent English sentence, as far as I can ascertain...
In the broader sense, why is anyone wasting their time by attempting to "interpret" or "analyse" a Spice Girls song....?
Surely, to sum it up as a "catchy but facile pop song" is enough....

thread_title:  ...."the lyrics are a demand of sincerity".... 

message: Previous version of this entry listed the BPM of the song as 116. This is a bit too high. The actual BPM is more around 110.

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: The release date in the infobox is 26 June 1996, but the paragraph text says 8 July 1996. I've always thought that the July date is correct, and it has a source, but is there a reason why the infobox says differently? LadyGavGav (talk) 17:38, 30 June 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: From the "Chart performance" section: the single was first released in June 1996 in Japan/Southeast Asia, then released in the UK/Europe in July 1996, then released in the US in January 1997. Bennv123 (talk) 19:43, 30 June 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Perhaps these different release dates in different major markets should be reflected in the infobox to avoid confusion. Bennv123 (talk) 19:48, 30 June 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Release date in infobox 

message: The top/main infobox in this article is for the original "Wannabe" single, and the b-side for that single was "Bumper to Bumper". A new track/b-side "Feed Your Love" was released with the 2021 Wannabe 25 anniversary EP. Per Template:Infobox_song#B-side: "Generally, later releases or in secondary markets, reissues, etc., should only be included in the body of the article." (emphasis mine) Additionally, Wannabe 25 has its own section and infobox in the article, but as it is classified as an EP by reliable sources, Template:Infobox album does not include a "B-side" parameter. The Wannabe 25 section however can be expanded with more content on "Feed Your Love"/the EP etc. Bennv123 (talk) 07:30, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Feed Your Love" as a B-side in the infobox 

message: , why is the article's title in italics? QuestFour (talk) 22:03, 21 August 2021 (UTC)

message: :The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
The result of the move request was: not moved. Consensus is that the Spice Girls song remains the primary topic; User:UanfalaUanfala's link to Wikinav is incredibly helpful in demonstrating this. (closed by non-admin page mover) Sceptre (talk) 18:26, 10 March 2023 (UTC)
