Verbs converted to nouns: when are articles needed

The lesson gave me the impression that articles are only needed when they are in plural form, but based on the discussion below it sounds like they are always needed for both singular and plural forms. Is that correct? So that’s why “el cantar” was correct in the quiz question but “cantar” alone was incorrect? How do we know when a verb is considered a noun without a quiz hint?
