Background and composition

• The song was released in Greece as a digital download on 12 February 2008 and as a CD single on 28 March 2008 → not on given source

I couldn't find the old itunes links for Greece's initial release, so I've just changed it to the generic link they are using now. When itunes switched their link structure over, they overwrote older releases with the "worldwide".Grk1011 (talk) 15:40, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

Did you look on wayback machine, archive.is, webcitation and others? MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 16:03, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

• "A Chance to Love" performed by Chrispa and "Always and Forever" performed by Kostas Martakis. → add year of release in the beggining of the sentence. Not sure why the release year would be relevant?

To get an idea when the song was performed? 2008, 2009? MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 00:30, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

The sentence starts with 27 Feb 2008. 15:40, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

Credits and personnel

I've changed the dashes, but the formatting of this section was requested in another GA review, so I believe these comments to just be a preference and not requirement.

It's guidelines, it hasn't to do with anyones preference Wikipedia:WikiProject_Albums/Album_article_style_advice#Personnel. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 00:29, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

Format changed to align with your style advice link, though I am leaving the locations subheader as it helps with readability. Grk1011 (talk) 15:40, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

• Remove the subheader locations, put the mixing and recording in the same sentece "Recorded and mixed at Prisma Studio (Athens, Greece); mixed at C&C Studio (Athens, Greece)"
• The personnel should be the other way around "first the person then the credit"
• Enginners, mixing? No names
• Use {{spaced ndash}} so there is the right space between the credits and the personnel

 Done

Release history

• Radio single is to broad and the source says 0 regarding radio release
• The label and formats are switched
• Once more issues with the physical CD single.

 Done

Charts and certifications

 Done

• This section should be above the "release history" one
• I see no certifications
• Use the Template:Single chart for the chart entries

Notes

 Done

• I only see digital versions, where is the physical CD single? Use the liner notes of the credits and personnel as a source

References

• Most of the sources regading chart are dead but will be fixed once you add the automatic entries
• The publishers for the charts will be automatic
• ESCToday → can't be publisher and work at the same time → is publisher

 Done

Overall

@Grk1011: I left you a new comment and a couple of  Not donemost have to do with the release of the song. iTunes is not a physical format of CD single you need to give a look at that and other stuff. Also address the comments on "Credits and personnel" I left you the guidelines, it will be easier for you to see and the reason for the given date. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 14:19, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
