[edit] ARIA singles charts on Wikipedia

  • I've removed some information that pre-dates ARIA & therefore is not related to this topic. I'm thinking to start adding pages for weekly ARIA singles charts to Wikipedia, does anyone have a suitable table or format these should be in? ZlatkoT 14:50, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] ARIA Charts

I agree to the suggestion and someone should be adding more topics to the achivements page

[edit] Brazin/ARIA split

I can't help but feel that the news that Brazin will cease providing ARIA with sales data should be mentioned in the article. Brazin owns Sanity, HMV and Virgin Megastore, and the absence of these three (arguably only two, I don't know how big VM is) major music outlets' sales from the charts is sure to skew them in some manner--though it's likely too early to tell where. Does anyone feel like adding this somewhere? I wouldn't know where to put it, and don't know much about it. Here's a couple of links for anyone who wants to do some research: [1], [2], [3]. - 211.28.136.87 11:26, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

I've added the requested information, although I wasn't aware of it before now. There seems to be an awful lot of duplication surrounding ARIA - we have separate articles for the ARIA charts, ARIA Music Awards and Australian Recording Industry Association. I think the information about the ARIA awards on this page could probably be removed, since they have their own article. Anybody disagree? Also, just a suggestion, perhaps this page should be renamed "Motorola ARIA charts" to come into line with the official name of the charts these days. Phil500 08:36, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
It was recently announced (November 11) amid little fanfare, that Brazin has now recommenced contributing to the ARIA charts (see references). I've changed the article to reflect this.--Phil500 (Talk / Contribs) 07:32, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] ARIA founding date

The ARIA founding date (1983) post-dates any chart success The Beatles had before that therefore is not an ARIA fact.ZlatkoT 08:38, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] ARIA Chart Positions History

Does anyone know where you can find the history of the highest point reached for singles or albums. i can't find artist single/album positions on the ARIA website, only the end of year positions and the single/album accreditations. --Aljohnston 02:44, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

Raid your local state library to see if they have archives of the ARIA Report. That's about the only place you can find old ARIA chart info, apart from having your own collection or knowing someone who has. David Kent's "Australian Chart Book 1970-1992" has top 100 singles & albums chart peaks that are identical/were used by ARIA until the end of June 1988. Nqr9 05:30, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] New ARIA single charts format and Wikipedia

I've just noticed ARIA has changed the name of Singles Chart to Physical Singles Chart and made a new Singles Chart which features CD's and internet downloads combined. Am I right about this. Should Wikipedia use the new combined chart? I just noticed this when I was editing I Don't Feel Like Dancing thinking it was number 7 (physical) when it's number 3 (combined). Lakeyboy 07:57, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

Hello, yeah in my opinion i recon that they should use this new Singles Chart, and yeah the singles chart is a combination of CD's and downloads. I found this news article on the ARIA webiste that might explain it better:) [4]. Lillygirl 8:18, 10 Ocotber 2006.
Cool. I think I'll use "Singles Charts"!!! RaNdOm26 16:04, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
