List of Billboard Hot 100 number-one singles of 2019

Okay, let's try this one more time. The author obviously has a conflict of interest, and a heavy violation of WP:CRYSTAL. They have removed a proposed deletion template and a speedy deletion (for blatant self-promotion) template. We cannot know what things will be like in 2019, and Wikipedia is WP:NOT a vehicle for someone to promote their band.

That's the whole point here, the person with their band as their username is trying to say that they WILL be making a number one single in 2019 (needed this clarification, since looking at the title of the article up for deletion doesn't make it obvious). I'm not being too WP:BITE-Y here, am i? Gatemansgc (talk) 04:11, 3 December 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:CRYSTAL. While it's very likely that the chart will still exist in 13/14 months time, nothing can be said for certain right now on who will chart and when they'll chart.  Lugnuts  Fire Walk with Me 10:35, 3 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete. I think this is a arguably a case of WP:TOOSOON, but it is alarming that someone seems to be using this to predict (or possible influence) who will be number 1 on a chart in thirteen months time. Dunarc (talk) 16:03, 3 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Strong delete per WP:NOTCRYSTAL Ajf773 (talk) 17:56, 3 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete and with your permission,, I'd like to add List of Billboard Hot 100 number-one singles of 2020 as well for the same reasons. Primefac (talk) 21:21, 3 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment:, please do. Also would suggest salting each with a reasonable expiration (as each year gets near, and legit sourced predictions have a chance of coming, so late December the year before?), as something like this could be a target for recreation.

 * Super strong delete potentially even speedily as a g3 hoax as they're attempting to predict 1 year + time with their own "single". CHRISSY MAD  ❯❯❯  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯  21:27, 3 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment:, Hm, hoax. That would have been a good idea for me to use in the beginning. Gatemansgc (talk) 22:03, 3 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Strong Delete. This article is useless. --Zerbey (talk) 21:51, 3 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete WP:CRYSTAL made to try to throw their band on here; not happening.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 22:38, 3 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete and salt most definitely, per . Maybe we should pre-emptively salt the next few subsequent years just in case. This is getting silly. ~dom Kaos~ (talk) 22:58, 3 December 2017 (UTC)
