Here's my 22nd nomination of a year from the history of this chart. In this particular year we see a couple more early Motown bangers from Stevie Wonder and Martha & the Vandellas......and then for reasons which have never been made clear, Billboard opted to scrap the chart.....? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:58, 20 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from PanagiotisZois[edit]

Overall, great work on the list. I only have one comment. "Part Time Love" is highlighted as the best-selling R&B single of 1963. Shouldn't that be mentioned somewhere in the article? --PanagiotisZois (talk) 12:11, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Pseud 14[edit]

  • not only in the R&B field but across all genres -- perhaps "R&B" alone is enough, not only in R&B but across all genres
  • minor spacing miss - "Lesley Gore,and the Essex"
  • That's all from me. Pseud 14 (talk) 17:01, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Pseud 14: - done! -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 18:49, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
If you have some spare time and interest, I would also appreciate your input/comments on a current FLC. Pseud 14 (talk) 19:24, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Dank[edit]

  • Standard disclaimer: I don't know what I'm doing, and I mostly AGF on sourcing.
  • You're sorting "The Miracles" under "T", but "The Essex" under "E".
  • Checking the FLC criteria:
  • 1. I've done a little copyediting; feel free to revert or discuss. I checked sorting on all sortable 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 list is well-sourced to reliable sources, and the UPSD tool isn't indicating any actual 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.
  • Close enough for a support. Well done. - Dank (push to talk) 14:01, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Source review passed, promoting. --PresN 20:33, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
