The result of the move request was: Moved. There's consensus for move. (non-admin closure) – Ammarpad (talk) 07:43, 9 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Bored (Billie Eilish song) → Bored (song) – Primary search topic for the term "Bored (song)". All the others song of the same title do not have an article The Ultimate Boss (talk) 07:18, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - WP:INCDAB with respect to other songs listed at Bored (disambiguation). -- Netoholic @ 07:47, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per Netoholic. Lugnuts ^{Fire Walk with Me} 06:46, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom. There is no other article that could reasonably use the title. Station1 (talk) 19:12, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support as it is the only song with this name that has an article. A hatnote could be added to the top of the article to go to the other songs already listed in the disambiguation page. Aoba47 (talk) 20:45, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support. We do not further disambiguate someone with (Russian politician) when a non-notable political candidate's name redirects to an election page, or (American chef) if a non-notable cooking show contestant redirects to the show's season. Likewise, further disambiguation when there are no notable songs by that name, just ones that redirect to their albums without significant discussion, is not helpful to readers searching the name.--Yaksar (let's chat) 01:39, 1 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support per WP:DABSONG since it's the only song by this name which has an article. Steel1943 (talk) 04:47, 5 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox and lead

Infobox looks good
"from the soundtrack 13 Reasons Why (A Netflix Original Series Soundtrack)." → "from the soundtrack album, 13 Reasons Why (A Netflix Original Series Soundtrack) (2017)."
Writing sentence should be the second of the para instead and follow it with production still
"The song was released by" → "It was released by"
Wikilink lead single
"Musically a mid-tempo" → "A mid-tempo" with the target
"the lyrics see Eilish" → "the song's lyrics see Eilish"
"received generally mixed reviews" → "has received generally mixed reviews"
"with many deeming it" → "with a number of them deeming it"
"The song has since been" → "The song has been"
"and Polish Society of the Phonographic Industry (ZPAV)." → "and Polish Society of the Phonographic Industry (ZPAV), respectively."

Add a sentence about the video's critical reception

"it during her" → "it for her"

Background and composition

Writing/production sentences should begin this section instead
"as the lead single for the album" → "as the lead single from" with the wikilink and remove target on the soundtrack
Where is digital download and streaming backed up; Tidal is only streaming? Either find a source that states this or add various citations for the release.
"by Billie Eilish, her brother" → "by Eilish alongside her brother"
"for 13 Reasons Why, and" → "for 13 Reasons Why and"
"as it opened her music" → "due to opening her music"
Target key to Key (music)
Wikilink tempo
Are you sure the stylization is correct for the range that Eilish's vocals span?
Identify music critics as music journalists here instead to prevent repetitive wording, though keep the target
"that makes Eilish feel contempt for an ex-boyfriend" → "that demonstrates Eilish feeling contempt for an ex-lover"

Reception

Can you get more than three reviews since at least four are needed to give a critical overview?
"has received mainly mixed reviews" → "has been met with mainly mixed reviews"
"saying it was" → "opining that it is"
"Writing for Insider, Courteney Larocca" → "For Insider, Courteney Larocca"
"the layering in Eilish's vocals" → "the layering of Eilish's vocals"
""Bored" has been" → "Commercially, "Bored" was" because this is a new para
"and Polish Society of the Phonographic Industry (ZPAV)." → "and Polish Society of the Phonographic Industry (ZPAV), respectively."
