editNow hang on. What if there was parenthesis. Parenthesis are used to express an after thought. Like for an example: "My dad ate my cookie (which was my favorite cookie)". It's not completely relevant but at the same time still relevant. It's different when you say instead "(Cars are my favorite machine)" That's really irrelevant. So mine wasn't irrelevant rather just an extra note. Maybe go as far as making a trivia section and put the information in their instead. Flasty Jam 2 (talk) 22:50, 8 September 2018 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for May 26
editHi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited List of number-one country singles of 2021 (Canada), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Made for You. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 06:00, 26 May 2021 (UTC)

The article Weekends Look a Little Different These Days has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
poorly referenced
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.

Please add subsections for weekly charts if you're going to year-end subsections
editAlso, wikitables require captions now per MOS:TABLECAPTION. It would've been very helpful if you could've done this yourself seeing as most country song articles released in the last year already had them. Please bear this in mind for the future. Thank you. Ss112 00:36, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
Bots Newsletter, December 2021

BRFA activity by month Welcome to the eighth issue of the English Wikipedia's Bots Newsletter, your source for all things bot. Maintainers disappeared to parts unknown... bots awakening from the slumber of æons... hundreds of thousands of short descriptions... these stories, and more, are brought to you by Wikipedia's most distinguished newsletter about bots. Our last issue was in August 2019, so there's quite a bit of catching up to do. Due to the vast quantity of things that have happened, the next few issues will only cover a few months at a time. This month, we'll go from September 2019 through the end of the year. I won't bore you with further introductions — instead, I'll bore you with a newsletter about bots. Overall

BRFA activity by month Welcome to the ninth issue of the English Wikipedia's Bots Newsletter, your source for all things bot. Vicious bot-on-bot edit warring... superseded tasks... policy proposals... these stories, and more, are brought to you by Wikipedia's most distinguished newsletter about bots. After a long hiatus between August 2019 and December 2021, there's quite a bit of ground to cover. Due to the vastness, I decided in December to split the coverage up into a few installments that covered six months each. Some people thought this was a good idea, since covering an entire year in a single issue would make it unmanageably large. Others thought this was stupid, since they were getting talk page messages about crap from almost three years ago. Ultimately, the question of whether each issue covers six months or a year is only relevant for a couple more of them, and then the problem will be behind us forever. Of course, you can also look on the bright side – we are making progress, and this issue will only be about crap from almost two years ago. Today we will pick up where we left off in December, and go through the first half of 2020. Overall January 2020 Yeah, you're not gonna be able to get away with this anymore.

Columns for charts
editHi Martin. When adding column formatting to music articles, please ensure the col-start and col-2 templates go above the weekly charts heading like this, otherwise the headings are uneven. Obviously the weekly charts and year-end charts headings being on the same line visually is preferable (where possible) over an uneven divide. Thanks. Ss112 12:25, 2 December 2022 (UTC)

Kenny Chesney's Country Airplay number ones
editHi there, just to let you know I have put back the wording as it was before about Chesney's 33 number ones based on country radio airplay for the following reason: the situation here is a bit odd and confusing - a chart called Country Airplay has only existed since 2012, but Billboard have apparently retroactively declared that all Hot Country Songs number ones between 1990 and 2012 (when that chart was based on radio plays) also count as Country Airplay number ones, even though the former chart sill exists and the latter was not published at the time. I therefore used intentionally vague wording to skirt this issue, as while Chesney has had 33 number ones based on country radio airplay, he has not had 33 number ones on a chart which was called "Country Airplay" at the time of its publication. Hope that makes sense. Maybe it's worth asking at WT:CHARTS how to handle this....? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 10:01, 18 June 2024 (UTC)
