List of Radio & Records and Mediabase number-one singles of the 2000s

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Unverifiable chart data. All positions are cited to a personal website that backed up the archives and is therefore not an RS. Mediabase does not, as far as I can tell, archive individual charts, meaning that every position here fails WP:V. Mediabase is not listed on WP:GOODCHARTS for this reason. These pages aren't linked from anywhere either, showing an inability to maintain the content.

ETA: The chart positions of Radio & Records dating to 2009 and prior can mostly be verified through back issues here, which is why I did not nominate those. It's solely the ones pertaining to Mediabase that I feel should be deleted.

 * Delete: Wikipedia is not a catalogue. &#8213; Susmuffin Talk 20:25, 5 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep: The website is the only source where the Mediabase chart positions are at. I know that Mediabase never publishes or archives their charts, but it's the only place I could find. 70Jack90 (talk) 02:18, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
 * It's not a reliable source though, as it's hosted on a personal website. That's like saying that the Angelfire site I made when I was a teenager is a reliable source because it's the "only place" to find information on obscure shopping malls that were demolished 20 years ago. WP:BADCHARTS exists specifically to thwart usage of charts whose positions cannot be confirmed. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 02:41, 6 September 2021 (UTC)


 * Delete per WP:NLIST: "a list topic is considered notable...if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources." This is not the case here. Star cheers peaks news lost wars Talk to me 15:59, 10 September 2021 (UTC)
