Hi everyone, with 69 of these number-one country song lists now at WP:FL, here's what I hope will be #70 (don't worry everyone - we're nearing the end now :-)). In this particular year, pop singer Bebe Rexha set a new record for the longest run atop the Hot Country Songs chart, with what remains her only track ever to enter the chart at all. Coincidentally, the artist who ended her run was the same artist who had ended the previous record run. As ever, all comments will be most gratefully received...... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:20, 11 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comments from Dank
- In the last non-ref column, McCreery should sort before Morris.
- Standard disclaimer: I don't know what I'm doing, and I mostly AGF on sourcing.
- FLC criteria:
- 1. The prose is fine. I've done a little copyediting; feel free to revert or discuss. The coding at the top of the table seems fine. I checked sorting on all columns and sampled the links in the table.
- 2. The lead meets WP:LEAD and defines the inclusion criteria.
- 3a. The list has comprehensive items and annotations.
- 3b. The article is well-sourced to reliable sources, and the UPSD tool isn't indicating any problems (but this isn't a source review). All relevant retrieval dates are present.
- 3c. The list meets requirements as a stand-alone list, it isn't a content fork, it doesn't largely duplicate another article (that I can find), and it wouldn't fit easily inside another article.
- 4. It is navigable.
- 5. It meets style requirements. At a glance, the images seem fine.
- 6. It is stable.
- Support, since this is close enough to the finish line. Well done. - Dank (push to talk) 23:02, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- @Dank: - many thanks. I spent ages staring at the listing for McCreery trying to figure out why it was sorting after Morris, until it finally dawned on me that the issue was actually with the listing for Morris, which was set to sort on her forename, which coincidentally also starts with M. Resolved now, anyway...... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 06:31, 13 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Will try to take a look at this tomorrow. Hog Farm Talk 03:32, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- " In 2018, three different songs topped the Hot Country Songs chart and 32 different songs topped Country Airplay in 52 issues of the magazine." - Maybe this is just me being stupid, but there seem to be 53 different issues included in the list? Also, I counted 5 times and got 33 songs for Airplay each time, although that may be a counting error on my part.
- " Due to a change in Billboard's chart dating policy, the first chart of 2018 was dated January 3, four days after the previous one - Is a source needed to confirm that the previous one was four days before and that it was due to a policy change? The Jan 3 and Jan 6 dates are obviously cited to things elsewhere in the list, but I wonder if those two other points may need sources
- "McKinley, Jr., James C. (October 26, 2012). "Changes to Charts by Billboard Draw Fire". The New York Times. Archived from the original on October 3, 2012. Retrieved May 24, 2013." - Archive date should be November 3, 2012 it looks like based on the archive (it's kinda hard to archive a source before it was published)
- Image licensing looks proper (not an expert in that area).
- I'm familiar with most of the sources, and they all appear to be reliable, and the formatting error above seems to be the only issue on the formatting front.
Anticipate supporting once the comments above get worked through. Hog Farm Talk 00:42, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- @Hog Farm: - many thanks for your review, all addressed now (I think) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:14, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Support, and also pass on source review. Hog Farm Talk 02:01, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
