message: It is probably worth noting that (due to the recent death of Margaret Thatcher), this song has reached #1 for the first time ever on the UK iTunes charts on 9th April 2013. --82.34.243.21 (talk) 00:24, 10 April 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: It's currently mentioned as reaching #2, but charts like this aren't usually included in articles, so should be replaced if the song reaches the official chart. –anemoneprojectors– 09:43, 10 April 2013 (UTC)
replies: text:  Not totally true. Originally the creators of the facebook page were urging people ONLY to buy the Ella Fitzgerald version as it was understood that the original version would not could. This was checked with the official chart company on Monday/Tuesday of this week and confirmed it would qualify and so the facebook page which spawned the campaign was changed to reflect this. If you go back to the original facebook campaign you will find this is the case. However its largely irrelevant, within 24 hours the campaign moved to the original version. Oh, and on the lede, fully agree this shouldnt be in the lede. Its not that relevant, but it is relevant enough it should be in the article, as it could well result in a top ten chart placing in the UK. Dimspace (talk) 16:58, 11 April 2013 (UTC)

text: This section needs chopping right down per WP:RECENT. Tweets happen all the time, what's enduring, ditch the rest. Widefox; talk 21:39, 12 April 2013 (UTC)
replies: text:  at the moment its an ongoing story so will probably grow and shrink as the news develops. Come monday once its final chart position is known etc, im sure the section can be cleaned up. Dimspace (talk) 13:53, 13 April 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Ding Dong, The Witch is Dead reaches #1 on iTunes UK charts 

message: Judy Garland does not even sing a note of the song. Not in the Film, nor on the Film Soundtrack. As YouTube Clips clearly show. So it cannot be credited to Judy. Only The Munchkins sing it - as the first part of the Article correctly says. Then, near the end of the Article, the 
nonsense about Judy Garland singing it is added - totally wrong. 12:01, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

message: This is essential to the paragraph because it places in context the entire picture of events and contains multiple verified sources.
However, yesterday a editor took it upon himself to delete the entry which included a mention by the BBC citing 'inconquenstial blogs', only the BBC cite was from the BBC music blog, the rest are all verified Wiki sources. Twobells (talk) 08:51, 15 April 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Please learn what is a reliable source, and what is not.  The Mail claim seems barely relevant, but I've retained it with a more properly formatted reference - your other refs either bore no relation to the text at all, or were clearly unreliable.

message: Someone has stated previously that the Thatcher episode should not be included in the lede. However, the guidelines of WP:LEDE suggest there should probably be some mention of it. The lede should be a summary of the article as a whole, and there is a significant section on it now. Any thoughts? Paul MacDermott (talk) 17:27, 23 April 2013 (UTC)

message: There was a character in a book. Illustrations were made for the book. The book was eventually made into several movies. One of the films was a musical. One of the songs was about the death of the character (who is only briefly seen in the film). The illustration is distantly related to the song, at best. - SummerPhDv2.0 21:52, 8 August 2015 (UTC)
