In the "Critical Reception" portion of this article, you are not referring to Carrie Battan's actual review of the song. The article you are paraphrasing and to which you're linking simply announces the song's release. The following link includes Battan's full review of the song which discusses much more than just the hash tag in the title and Miguel's inclusion in the song.

This is the order of the writers and producers Written by: Miguel Pimentel, Mariah Carey, Nathan Perez and Brook Davis Produced by: Miguel and Mariah Carey Co-Produced by: Happy Perez
It's done by who did the most work. Mariah's name is not first and you cannot take of Perez and Davis because you feel like it! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.153.254.17 (talk) 14:13, 8 May 2013 (UTC)
Yes they are. That's the general rule of thumb. It certainly isn't alphabetically. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.153.254.17 (talk) 18:16, 8 May 2013 (UTC)
Is Adult Pop Songs a component chart of the Pop Songs? I don't want to keep removing unless I am sure! Jayy008 (talk) 12:14, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
Thanks for the speedy response. It's been a while and I couldn't remember! Jayy008 (talk) 12:19, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
Can it be added somewhere in the article about how #Beautiful broke the record for most radio spins in ONE day? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.55.52.9 (talk) 04:26, 29 May 2013 (UTC)
I have removed the current listing as it's not archived and represents only one radio station. The official Croation chart that is allowed per WP: Record charts takes me to a dead website which my computer tells me is extremely high risk to visit. Jayy008 (talk) 20:38, 5 June 2013 (UTC)
The song isn't called "hashtag beautiful", in the chorus Mariah Carey sings "you're beautiful" not "you're hashtag beautiful". The inclusion of # is so to encourage the song to be mentioned on twitter and therefore trend. As its not a spoken part of the title its purely stylistic. No one, vocally refers to the song as "hashtag beautiful", the only place this is relevant is in written form. its quite different to say the Kelly Rowland song which is actually called number one and written/expressed as "#1", where the # is actually spoken as "number". — Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 11:14, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
The title of the song doesn't have to be in the song in order for it to be the title of the song. For example, There is a Wikipedia article for Empire State Of Mind not Now You're In New York. There is a Wikipedia article for Hot N Cold not You're Hot Then You're Cold. There is a Wikipedia article on We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together not We Are Never Ever Ever Getting Back Together. Wikipedia has an article on Ho Hey not I Belong With You You Belong With Me You're My Sweet. Wikipedia has an article on Party Rock Anthem not Party Rock Is In The House Tonight. Wikipedia has an article on Dilemma not No Matter What I Do All I Think About Is You Even When I'm With My Boo Boy You Know I'm Crazy Over You. Wikipedia has an article on Party Rock Anthem not Part Rock Is In The House Tonight. I could probably go on for longer, but I only happen to have three CDs on the desk in front of me. Wikipedia's policy even expands to strange incorrect spellings the artist chooses to use for the title. For example, How Do U Want It, I Luv Your Girl, Tha Crossroads, I Gotta Feeling, Not Gon' Cry, Hot In Herre and Gangsta's Paradise. Once again, my examples are limited to the few CDs I have on my desk now, I'm sure there are others. Billboard, iTunes, and the CD itself all refer to it as #Beautiful. Why would Wikipedia change the name of the song? TBWarrior720 (talk) 20:12, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
I disagree... # has two meanings, uts either an abbreviation for the word "number" or its a social media mechanism, primarily used on twitter. the word use of # has a meaning, while the social media mechanism doesnt have a meaning thats why the context makes a difference. if you still disagre Aaron, we should open a WP:RFC. — Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 22:18, 23 July 2013 (UTC)
The song is legally registered under the title "Beautiful", not "#Beautiful". Bluesatellite (talk) 04:09, 12 August 2013 (UTC)
@Lil-unique1, TBWarrior720, Tomica, IndianBio, WikiRedactor, Calvin999, and Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars: @Bluesatellite: Sorry to rehash (no pun intended) a nearly year-old discussion, but if the song is officially titled with a hashtag on the single cover / liner notes of Carey's album (which it is), most commonly referred to in reliable sources with a hashtag (which it is), and listed as such at retailers such as iTunes (which it is), we have absolutely no right to dismiss a part of this song title as a "marketing ploy" - which it very well might be; however, titling a song after a repeated phrase in a chorus like many hit singles is also a marketing gimmick and we respect that. The word "hashtag" does not have to be explicitly sung in the song for "#Beautiful" to be the title as evidenced by the examples given by TBWarrior720 above. And IndianBio, the key difference between this and Ke$ha/P!nk is that those two artists are commonly referred to as "Kesha" and "Pink" in reliable sources. This song is not commonly referred to as simply "Beautiful" in sources. –Chase (talk / contribs) 19:15, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
Is the official radio top 20 RADIO songs in Lebanon and its Legal so you all can check its article on Wikipedia. We use it in Lebanon as a credible official radio airplay chart alongside The official Lebanese Top 20 thanks Fidel 16:31, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
Hi, could somebody restore Billboard Brazil's Hot 100 Airplay and US Billboard Rhythmic Top 40, I have access to neither sources. Jayy008 (talk) 12:22, 4 July 2013 (UTC)
