[edit] Cleanup tag

This article is formatted poorly, has multiple repeat-wikilinks and no categories. It also has no sources - nowhere does it mention what chart this information comes from or which country. It probably should be renamed if it is only going to feature United States statistics, unless information from other countries are added to the page. -- eo 14:27, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

Hopefully objections are now satisfied. I took off the cleanup tag. Wasted Time R 21:45, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wlinks in section titles

While wikilinks within section headers is usually a bad practice, here it's the only link to the albums in question. I'm restoring them. Wasted Time R 12:59, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Saturday Night Fever

Neither of the additions of Saturday Night Fever that have been made here are valid. The Bee Gees only had three new number one hits from the album, not five: "Jive Talkin'" and "Nights on Broadway" had been released two and a half years earlier, from a different album, and then were also included on the SNF soundtrack. That's not the sense of this article at all; if we allowed these, this list would be dominated by greatest hits albums.

The same problem applies to the 'various artists' inclusions, along with a straight error: "Disco Inferno" by The Trammps did not make number one on the Billboard Hot 100, only number 11. Wasted Time R 12:59, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

The article has three lists, but as explained above, SNF doesn't qualify for any of them. Wasted Time R 11:56, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Beyoncé Knowles's B'Day

Should Beyoncé Knowles's B'Day be included on this article? As far as I know, "Listen" was not a single from that album but from the Dreamgirls soundtrack, and it is included only on B'Day as a bonus track. Thoughts? Extraordinary Machine 01:37, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, maybe you have a point. Has any Billboard staffer or columnist said anything about this? They would be the 'decider'. Wasted Time R 12:00, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Listen appears as an official track on the B'Day Deluxe Editon. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.81.22.110 (talk) 20:11, August 27, 2007 (UTC)
This still seems like a questionable inclusion to me -- no matter how you slice it, the album only qualifies if you consider at least two separate editions, since Check On It doesn't appear on the Deluxe Edition either (it was an iTunes bonus and appears on some non-US versions, but this is a US chart discussion). I've added notes to the entries for the various tracks to make this clearer. Gusworld 22:07, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
Both B'Day and B'Day's Deluxe Edition were counted as the same album on the Billboard charts.

You forgot "life is what you make it" which would bring its total number of hot 100 songs to ten. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.204.118.242 (talk) 17:45, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
