With the lists for 2000, 2001 and 2002 all promoted and 2003 and 2004 now having multiple supports, you could probably guess what was coming next.......... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:39, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

*"Billboard's year-end chart" Italicize Billboard here.
  • Sorting by reference number makes no sense.
  • "having risen to the top in the issue dated December 25, 2004" You know what comes next -- that needs citing.
  • In addition in the line above, remind us we're talking issues of Billboard here.
  • Checking the history, it does appear Gracin got to #1 before Carrie Underwood, but I'm, struggling to find the exact line that says he was the first in the reference provided. (I"m discussing current ref 5, the Top 100 American Idol" one
    • I think I based that on the line "Before Carrie Underwood, Kellie Pickler, Bucky Covington, Danny Gokey, Casey James, Scotty McCreery and Lauren Alaina, "American Idol" produced its first country star." Note that the article doesn't actually state that Gracin was the first AI contestant to hit number one, only the first to achieve country chart success, which I think the above supports..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 12:27, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That's all from me. Courcelles (talk) 08:50, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • You basically have a near-endless supply of these ready to go, don't you? Courcelles (talk) 08:58, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • I've worked up every one from 1992-2011 inclusive. I didn't want go any further back than 1991 because I can't find a source for the change in chart methodology in 1990, and from 2012 on they look weird because two charts have been combined into one article....... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:09, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • This green link should be fixed
  • 20 → twenty
  • Question: Why isn't the article title "List of Hot Country Singles & Tracks number ones of 2005"?
    • Because the chart changed its name during 2005, as the lead states. It is more appropriate to use the name which was in place for 2/3 of the year and under which it ended the year -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:35, 24 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That's all I got. Great job! BeatlesLedTV (talk) 04:09, 24 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I finally thought I'd found an FLC with no comments, but I did, ref 5, CMT shouldn't be in italics. Imagine that. All I could find. Wow. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:11, 28 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

More comments (a quick second look)

  • " but to date it remains his only number one hit." I'm not sure why that's a "but", I would semi-colon then "it remains his only number one hit as of February 2018." (because I think "to date" is normally avoided in favour of {{as of}}).
  • Could link "chart" to Record chart.
  • Picky, but "two years after he was a finalist on American Idol." isn't explicitly referenced.
