I've not produced anything at FLC in a few years now, but I've enjoyed reviewing the series by User:ChrisTheDude, so I thought I'd try my hand at one. Took a while to find one he didn't have already written up in apparent queue! The table already existed, but none of the prose, and all the refs were broken. I think it fits the criteria, so let's see what I'm not seeing. Courcelles (talk) 03:53, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Firstly I am flattered to have served as a source of inspiration :-). A few minor points for me:
    • The dates don't sort correctly, you will need to add the appropriate sorting template
      • Templates installed.
    • "George Strait begun the year at number one." - is this correct in American English? I would say "George Strait began...." but then I am British and it might be a legitimate transatlantic language difference.....
      • I don't know... anyway, yours sounds just as correct as mine, so changed.
    • "most of any songs during the year" is used twice in quick succession
      • Rephrased.
    • You say that Brooks & Dunn had each previously reached #1 as soloists, but this isn't the case, far from it in fact - the source against that sentence says "Tim DuBois, then-president of Arista Records, had urged the then-soloists to team up; prior to 1991, each had charted two Hot Country Songs entries, with none reaching the top 40."
      • Shit, I read that correctly and then wrote something else. Fixed, and checked my other cited facts in more wakefulness.

Comments
  • "Trisha Yearwood did the same " just my snob reader hat on, "did the same" feels mighty clunky, perhaps "repeated the feat" or "achieved the same" or something, pretty much anything other than "did" the same would rock my boat.
  • " in the September 21 issue." perhaps reiterate what "issue" you're talking about, i.e. "of Billboard."
  • Pipe Alabama to the band, not a redirect to the band.
