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."
• "An accompanying music video for "Bored" was" → "An accompanying music video was"
• "In it, It shows Eilish dressed" → "In it, Eilish is shown dressed"

• Add a sentence about the video's critical reception
• "promoted the song by" → "promoted "Bored" by"
• "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."
