Every song-related article MUST start with {{Infobox song}}, which was shown on the right hand side of this page, and fill in the relevant parameters, for more about the template, see Infobox song. DO NOT create your own template, as this may confuse the editors and possibly readers.
The song name at the top sentence of the article should be quoted, like this: "song name". The first word must be capitalized. For more information on guidelines and policies, see Music:Manual of Style. This was then followed by the artist name. In case of the article is about a single album, your introduction paragraph should state that it was a single album:
Example:
- "Song name" is a song recorded by [[artist-name]]
- "Single album name" is a single album by [[artist-name]]
This was followed by the release date, then by the name of the label. In case of the exact date is unknown, please state the month and/or the year released.
Example:
- It was released on (date-released), by (label-name).
- It was released in (month-and-year / year), by (label-name).
After that, if it was released as a single, please use the format below: "as the ? single from his/her/their ? album (album-name)". Otherwise, you can state like this: "as the ? track from his/her/their ? album (album-name)". Ignore this format if it is a single album.
Background[]
This section is optional. This section describes everything behind the song/single/single album as well as providing accurate historical information behind the song/single/single album's creation. If little content is published, the entire section can be challenged or removed.
If you decide not to put this section, be sure to put {{Stub}} at the top of the page.
Track listing[]
This section is optional, mandatory only if the article is about a single album. In this section, just like albums, you MUST use {{Track listing}}, which include a list of songs inside the single/single album according to the order the songs are played in.

| Test headline | ||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| No. | Title | Length | ||||||||
| 1. | "Track 1" | 3:00 | ||||||||
| 2. | "Track 2" | 3:00 | ||||||||
Total length: |
6:00 | |||||||||
