Please maintain a maximum of 10 columns in all discography wikitables[edit]

Hello. Regarding your edits to Jennifer Lopez discography over the past several months, please bear in mind it is a widely accepted discography standard to have a maximum of 10 chart columns in a discography wikitable. It is also an WP:ACCESSIBILITY concern. Discographies do not exist solely or primarily to list charts, even if that's what Wikipedia has turned them into a focus on. Discographies are first and foremost solely a listing of releases by a musical artist. Therefore we cannot hope to list every chart or even sometimes all the major markets an artist has charted in, only a selection of the major markets they've charted in. Please always select their 10 biggest and/or most prolific markets and only list those.

Also, regarding your split of sections for what you claim was "easier reading"—there is no justification for splitting off the three singles Lopez released in the late 1990s into their own table, especially when nothing else (i.e. the chart columns) changed between the decades. Splits of content on one page should only be done when their size (i.e. length of the table) is a concern. One could argue Lopez's single releases were more prolific from there on, but not in the 1990s, so that has been combined (back) into the 2000s table. Thank you.
