If the box sold only 836 units, how could it have appeared on the British Pop Charts? Or do the charts have a very low threshold for inclusion? The statements need attribution. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 18:13, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

I believe that the claim was that just appeared on in the chart system, period (i.e., that its sales were registered and reported by the charts). I haven't seen any indication that it was a hit by any measure. I've added the best citations I can find: a pre-release NME article mentioning that it "could quality" for the charts, and the album's discography entry on the band's official website which confirms that it did indeed chart. The official discography appears to be the source for the claim that it's the only release to chart without music, but I can't find independent confirmation, and I've reworded the article to reflect that. -- rynne 21:13, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
