Mid-Year 2016 Charts

Should we add this somewhere? GagaNutella^talk 06:03, 23 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@GagaNutella: I think The Fame's Dance/Electronic achievements are already mentioned and I believe it must have charted in every mid year chart for Dance/Electronic from the moment it came out. So singling out 2016 does not seem worthwhile for me. If they would have given a break of SEA/TEA or the actual album sales maybe yes then. —IB ^{[ Poke ]} 07:12, 23 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I didn't know that. Thanks for the answer! GagaNutella^talk 22:48, 23 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
