I've listed this article for peer review to check the quality of the prose.

Comments from Another Believer: This looks good, but I have a couple quick/easy suggestions:

In other lists, you have "digital sales" as a factor. Did this not apply in 2002?

Billboard started counting digital sales in 2004. --Efe (talk) 07:37, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

A reference indicating how data is compiled would help.

I'll try to find, but are they that helpful? --Efe (talk) 07:37, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"Rapper Eminem achieved his first chart-topping single with "Lose Yourself" since he began his career in 1990"... I think this might be better: "Rapper Eminem achieved his first chart-topping single since he began his career in 1990 with "Lose Yourself".

Reworded to: "The ascent of "Lose Yourself" to number one gave rapper Eminem achieved his first chart-topping single since he began releasing albums in 1999." --Efe (talk) 07:37, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

later - change to "latter"

Rectified. --Efe (talk) 07:37, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Consider linking "soundtrack" (last paragraph)

Linked. --Efe (talk) 07:37, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

For the first reference listed at the bottom, I would recommend linking Billboard and Nielsen Business Media, Inc (you can link it to Nielsen Company). This may not be required, but it seems to be fairly common practice and I find it helpful sometimes, as a reader.

Done. --Efe (talk) 07:37, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

A couple additional artists pictures along the side would look nice, just to rid some of the white space. Looks good to me! -Another Believer (talk) 18:12, 8 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Will add one. --Efe (talk) 07:37, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Looks good! -Another Believer (talk) 23:43, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
