1981 in country music
I just made the #1 singles table for 1981 in country music. I put down everything I know, could you verify everything, and also add the #1 song of the year because I have no idea what that is. Thank you, archiving your talk page was a good idea by the way. Dottiewest1fan (talk) 02:15, 1 September 2008 (UTC)


 * I also made a #1 hits table for 1980 in country music. Can you verify the songs and add the #1 song of the year again. Thanks for all your help. Dottiewest1fan (talk) 20:19, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

Canadian Country Chart
Howdy Eric!! I was wondering if you could add the Canadian charts for Big & Rich, and also Alabama? It'd be much appreciated! EnDaLeCoMpLeX (talk) 00:38, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Ok, thanks a lot! EnDaLeCoMpLeX (talk) 12:23, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

I Hope You Dance
Sons of the Desert were indeed credited for "I Hope You Dance". See here. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 13:40, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Okay. I think it still counts, since Billboard credited them. 13:52, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

Cristy Lane
Could you add the rest of Cristy Lane's singles. Don't worry about making a new singles table, I'll take care of that when you're done, thanks. Dottiewest1fan (talk) 20:06, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

Diana Trask
Can you add the rest of Australian country singer (who had success here in the 70s), Diana Trask's singles? I only know of one, but I do know she had a bunch of Top 40, Top 20, and other hits that peaked outside the Top 40 in the late 60s, and through most of the 70s, and maybe the 80s. Thank you. Dottiewest1fan (talk) 21:43, 11 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Could you also add the missing singles and the albums for Zella Lehr? I have a couple of her singles, but none of her albums, and I know there's singles and albums misisng. Thank you. Dottiewest1fan (talk) 01:39, 12 September 2008 (UTC)


 * It's ok, don't worry about the album listing, you did a good job. Dottiewest1fan (talk) 19:10, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

User:David829
Hi Eric, I was wondering if you could add a singles discography for Mel McDaniel, it has his albums but not his hits. Also, could you make complete discographies for Moe Bandy and Joe Stampley, thank you.

Intros
You don't need to link everything in the intro. By having "American country music singer-songwriter", you end up with a big sea of blue that might be confusing to some. According to WP:OVERLINK, only the most important things should be linked. I'd link just the genre; also, I've started using "artist" instead of singer/songwriter since it's a little less ambiguous (for instance, is Keith Stegall a singer-songwriter just because he wrote some material?).

Jerry Reed
Can you fill all of the missing singles on Jerry Reed's single's table. There is so many singles missing from the 70s and 80s that I just can't find. Thank you very much. Dottiewest1fan (talk) 22:40, 17 September 2008 (UTC)

Canadian peaks
I think that we should add the Canadian Number One and Top 25 hits to the other "years in country music" pages as well, like we've done with 2008 in country music. Do you think you can help me with that? I can fill in all the Number Ones from 1990 to the end of the RPM era (except for one week in '93, which is oddly missing from their archives). Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 15:54, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I noticed in an edit summary that you said R&R didn't have a country singles chart until June 2004. Does this mean that Canada didn't have a country chart at all between the collapse of RPM and the beginning of the R&R country chart?

CAN Country
What is the source/reference for the CAN Country numbers? The numbers seem to match with the R&R (Radio & Records) Canada Country chart? The CAN Hot 100 numbers however are referenced to Billboard. Can you clarify? Thanks! Wikibones (talk) 12:21, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

BlackHawk (band) vs. BlackHawk
Since you're one of the editors who suggested I fix the BlackHawk/BlackHawk (band) thing myself, what do you think? Does the band's page really need a "(band)" at the end or not? I think not, because there's nothing else that uses the exact spelling BlackHawk. I moved the page against consensus (see Talk:BlackHawk). Since you've edited a lot of country articles with me, I was wondering what you thought of it all. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 19:56, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

B.J. Thomas
Hi Eric, I was wondering if you could add a complete discography for B.J. Thomas since his page doesn't have one as of yet. Let me know when you finish it, thanks.

Wanda Jackson
Can you add the rest of Wanda Jackson's singles, as there are so many missing from the 50s, 60s, and 70s. Thank you!


 * Ok, well then I guess that means only those 4 charted & the rest didn't, thank you. Dottiewest1fan (talk) 20:52, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Jan Howard
Can you add the Canadian peaks for Jan Howard's article, & can you also make sure all of her charted singles are on the singles table, because I'm not completley sure. Thank you very much. Dottiewest1fan (talk) 02:59, 11 October 2008 (UTC)


 * I was going to let you know earlier, but I had to leave to go out somewhere, I apologize. Yeah, I decided to be ambitous and go for it, I think I added the peaks correctly, thank you for touching up some things on her table. I think I get how to add the Canadian peaks now, thank you again. Dottiewest1fan (talk) 22:36, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

Jeannie Seely
Can you finish adding the US country peaks for Jeannie Seely. There is a large gap of singles missing between 1969 and 1972, and possibly some later ones. Can you please add them? Thank you very much. Dottiewest1fan (talk) 23:16, 24 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Thank you you're the best! Dottiewest1fan (talk) 18:38, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

Canadian peaks
Okay. I might need help figuring out the first/last/only #1's for artists. By the way, if an artist doesn't have a page yet, you can leave their name as a red link, so we know which semi-important Canadian acts we're still missing. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 13:45, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm trying to just get the #1 charts in place first, then if you like, I'll go back and add the "peaked at #x in Canada/United States" like we've been doing for 2008 in country music, so we don't end up with as many duplicates. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 14:30, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Hate to bug you a third time, but could you please verify the discography for Johnny Carver for me? Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 15:28, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I've completed all the #1's from 1990 to 1999. I still haven't yet added the Number One songs of the year, first/last #1's, etc. Maybe you can do that. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 17:35, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Yikes,we've got red links as recent as 1999, that's not good. I thought it was going to be difficult filling in all the artists who've had Top 40 hits on the US country charts for just 1990 onward (Michael White was really hard to find sources on!), but I did it. In fact, I think we've got every U.S. act who's had #50 or higher in the past 19 years except for Gabbie Nolen. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 12:12, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Do you think we should combine the tables like we did in 2008 in country music? I think that's a good idea since it keeps us from having so many songs listed twice. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 16:05, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

Missing singles
Can you add missing singles for Loretta Lynn and Tammy Wynette. By the way, you probably know the Canadian country artist, Carroll Baker. I know she was a country susperstar in Canada and I'm going to make her a singles chart this weekend. Can you list on my talk page any singles of hers that charted in the United States and failed to the chart, because that would be great. Thank you! Dottiewest1fan (talk) 01:46, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

Canadian number one singles 2001 - present
Do you know where I might find any sources for this list?

WikiProject Country Music
Any idea how to revive this? It's been dead since 2006 it seems. Except for some scattered contributions from you and a few other editors, I'm getting nowhere in improving the country music articles. I've tried asking around and nobody wants to help me promote anything to GA or even dig up a source. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 22:37, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

Peggy Sue
I just created a page about Loretta Lynn's and Crystal Gayle's sister, Peggy Sue, who was also a singer. Can you add all of her singles, including the ones that failed to chart, because I can't find any of them. Thank you. Dottiewest1fan (talk) 20:54, 2 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for telling me about rocky-52, that should help me a lot. I have a favor to ask, can you please verify if Crystal Gayle's singles on her discography page are in the correct order, if they're not can you please fix it, one user who thinks he owns Gayle's discography left me a nasty message on my talk page saying my singles' order was wrong and the way I capitalize certain letters in her singles chart is incorrect. Thank you very much. Dottiewest1fan (talk) 18:50, 4 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Ok thank you. Dottiewest1fan (talk) 17:55, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

Idea
I've noticed that almost all of the country music articles are in lousy shape. Given that the country music wikiproject is quite dead, I was thinking that you and I, along with some other editors, should start working together on one article at a time and trying to improve it to GA class or better. Maybe you, me, Caldorwards4, BravesFan2006, Dottiewest1fan and EnDaLeCoMpLeX can arrange our own little group. I'd like to start working on one of the more important articles first, like George Jones or Alabama or something. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 21:58, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
 * If you need a hand, I'm new but can spell pretty good. 8^) I've been slowly working on some of the bluegrass articles but would be happy to pitch in on a project a few hours a week.

Stella Parton
Can you please add the missing charted singles for Jeanne Pruett? Can you also add missing singles from Stella Parton's singles table. There is a bunch missing from the "Soul, Country & Blues" label, as well as 80s singles. Thank you. Dottiewest1fan (talk) 21:55, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

Album categories
I've noticed that many albums are categorized by producer. One category that I find particularly useless is Category:Albums produced by Richard Landis since he has zero notability per WP:N (no sources found). We've been trying to establish how to improve the tree of albums-by-producer categories, and whether or not a red link producer should have a category. You can voice your opinion here if you want, and at the CfD for Landis' category. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 19:41, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

Brooks & Dunn
The article on Brooks & Dunn is horrible. Care to help me clean it up? It needs a major, major expansion. I'm trying to get as many editors as I can to help clean up this article. Drop me a line if you want to help, and if you need to know what to add. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 04:38, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

This is good, how'd you do it?
I'm working on a stub for Oh Boy Records and need to format a discography similar to what you did for [John Prine]. That was slick, what did you use to format this?
