[edit] Re: Canadian music charts

Thanks for your interest in the Canadian music charts. The current goal is to complete the outstanding RPM singles charts, mainly the 1960s and 1990s, plus some gaps in coverage for the on-line editions which will need some library research. Not sure what timetable I might have available for the other RPM charts, at least in the near future. Their general album charts seem like an ideal next priority. But there are other charts such as The Record which were also notable and could use some coverage in WP. Dl2000 (talk) 23:31, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

I agree about The Record magazine and we should also include the Canadian Singles Chart (btw, there a list of the 1965 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number-one_hits_of_1965_%28Canada%29 which I doubt it's really the Canadian Singles chart, it could be the CHUM chart), btw what do you think if we could also post the Cash Box charts on Wikipedia? --Sd-100 (talk) 12:43, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
I looked into this as well, and it does appear to be the CHUM Chart. Bearcat (talk) 16:43, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

Just so you know, when you create a navbox template for things like the album lists, you don't have to copy and paste the entire template into each article. All you have to put at the bottom of the articles is the name of the template within curly brackets, like this: {{Canadian Albums}}. Hope that helps a bit. Bearcat (talk) 16:38, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Your recent edits

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button Image:Signature_icon.png located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 22:38, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Cashbox

Unfortunately, something being "interesting" does not justify it being on Wikipedia. There is nothing to suggest that it is notable. Also, see WP:INDISCRIMINATE. Rwiggum (Talk/Contrib) 22:01, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

I guess you have a point but since there a list of number-ones hits in the Hot 100 and other charts of Billboard magazine, maybe Cash Box should desserve it, There is another talk then I was part of it on the subject at Talk:List of number-one hits (United States)--Sd-100 (talk) 22:08, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Unfortunately, Billboard is the industry's source for music chart positions, and Cashbox is a fairly small-time publication, particularly in comparison to Billboard. Rwiggum (Talk/Contrib) 22:11, 7 June 2008 (UTC)


The current incarnation of Cashbox is a small-time publication but as eo mentionned on the talk page of list of number-one hits, it was very notable until the 1980s. Maybe we should post a vote or a poll on the subject.--Sd-100 (talk) 22:16, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
