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 Cyprus in the Eurovision Song Contest 2015'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 "final":

• From Italy in the Eurovision Song Contest 2015: "Eurovision Song Contest 2015 Grand Final". eurovision.tv. European Broadcasting Union. Retrieved 22 December 2015. {{cite web}}: Italic or bold markup not allowed in: |publisher= (help)
• From Sweet People: Marco, Brey. "Eurovision Song Contest 2010 Final". Eurovision. European Broadcasting Union. Retrieved 2010-06-04.

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⚡ 14:49, 17 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Italicise Eurovision Song Project in the infobox and use the hashtag target as you've done for areas like auditions
• Remove the Eurochallenges hashtag because there are two different sub-sections
• "Eurovision Song Contest 2015 in Vienna, Austria." → "Eurovision Song Contest 2015, held in Vienna, Austria."
• Remove the Eurovision Song Project hashtag since this is not appropriate for the lead
• "and format of the" → "and format of" but this information should be written out in the body too, with the source being there instead
• Target MAD TV to MAD TV (Cypriot TV channel)
• Similarly to the other example, keep the collaborative info for the selection here but write out in the body too, moving the refs
• "due to low number" → "due to the low number" but see the above comment about writing out info elsewhere
• ""One Thing I Should Have Done". It was performed by" → ""One Thing I Should Have Done", performed by"
• "and is written by Karagiannis together with" → "and co-written by Karagiannis with"

• "Prior to the 2015 Contest," → "Prior to the 2015 contest,"

• Italicise Eurovision Song Project on the img text
• Wikilink Eurovision Song Contest 2015, but the Eurovision Song Project title does not appear to be sourced unless my translator is faulty
• Shouldn't the Sweden comparison be mentioned somewhere here?
• The second sentence with the number of weeks and the starting/ending dates does not appear to be sourced
• The source says there was 10 shows not eight, plus the location is not backed up
• "despite previously being" → "despite it previously being"
• "on RIK 1, RIK Sat" → "on RIK 1 and RIK Sat"
• Mention the Eurovision website broadcast too per the source

• It says there are 54 artists but the source lists 60 entries; were six of those entries for artists that had other one(s)?
• [16] should be solely at the end of the para, due to being the other areas up too

• The cover version part is not sourced, even though the half is

• "eliminated ten acts." → "eliminated 10 acts." per MOS:NUM
• "the remaining ten artists" → "the remaining 10 artists"

• "All three shows were televised" → "All three shows were televised in Cyprus"
• The televised formats are unsourced, plus remove the targets to the broadcaster
• "who announced the Cypriot votes" → "who announced their votes"

• "Cyprus performed a repeat of her semi-final performance" this does not make sense, as the country itself is not a person, so re-word to mention the performer instead; this and the following sentence are unsourced as well
• "placed twenty-second with" → "placed 22nd with"

• The five music industry professionals part does not appear to be backed up, unless I missed something?
• "placed twenty-third with" → "placed 23rd with" but none of this para has the appropriate source(s) invoked
• "Cyprus scored 8 points finishing in tenth place," → "the country scored 8 points, finishing in 10th place,"

• eurovision.tv → European Broadcasting Union on refs 29, 30, 52, 53 and 54, always citing as publisher
• Remove eurovision.tv from refs 32, 34, 35, 36, 37, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47 and 48, plus fix any overlinks of the publisher
• Remove from ref 38 also and change EBU to European Broadcasting Union

•  On hold until all of the issues are fixed; hopefully you can make sure everything is sourced! --K. Peake 21:56, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• @Kyle Peake: Hi, sorry for the late response. I've implemented all the suggested changes, thank you for taking the time to review! — TheThomanski | t | c | 17:42, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• TheThomanski It is fine re the late response, but you still need to fix the MOS:QWQ issues with refs (this refers to when speech marks are used inside the titles) and change the last1/first1 parameters to just being last/first due to the current parameters being recognized as invalid, plus are the split voting results roles separated properly using commas from my last edit or did I accidentally add any splits mid-role titles without realizing? --K. Peake 18:43, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• @Kyle Peake: Done. — TheThomanski | t | c | 16:26, 23 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• @TheThomanski: ✓ Pass now, good job and I was thinking about whether you'd be responding soon or not earlier today actually. It may have taken a while but I can see that you are not highly active on Wiki so this is acceptable, especially in the context of how it's been under two weeks which can be acceptable for GA reviews – I notice your dedication to Eurovision articles though; keep that up! --K.
