 * Symbol redirect vote4.png Article is fivefold expanded on given date, surpasses stub criteria, hook is fine, neutral. What I am missing is that the rule of being the number-one R&B single is based on radio airplay audience impressions as measured by Nielsen BDS and sales data, so it isn't automatically means it gained solely the greatest airplay. The picture caption mentions it hit the top spot "on the list of the top 50 most played songs", but there's no reference for it, please fix this.

 * There is a source for it. You couldn't have read the lead as part of your review. It is there. AARON &bull; TALK   16:16, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes I checked it for the first time as well. For me it redirects to Billboard, which shows the same chart table as Wikipedia and the same rule as highlighted above, but didn't say about solely airplay.  Lajbi  Holla @ me  •  CP  16:21, 5 October 2012 (UTC)


 * "Year-End most popular R&B/Hip-Hop songs, ranked by radio airplay audience impressions". Alicia Keys is number one, so obviously she has to get the most to be number one, as with anything. Songs chart on the R&B/Hip-hop chart from airplay. Just like Dance songs chart based on what songs get the most spins in clubs. Just like Digital songs chart based on how many downloads a song gets.

 * "as measured by Nielsen BDS and sales data", which means there's sales involved, right? Like e.g. when you click Radio songs chart it doesn't say "sales" in its rules just the "as measured by Nielsen BDS" so it makes a difference in calculating the number one.

 * Yeah, but as it says, the most popular are ranked by audience impressions, and Nielsen then uses data to work out who is #1. So Alicia had to have had the most in order to be #1. Anyway:
