List of Billboard Easy Listening number ones of 1961

 * Nominator(s): ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:51, 21 April 2024 (UTC)

After working on 50 years of R&B number ones, I decided to take a break and jump to a different style of music - quite the switch from Prince to Connie Francis! Feedback as ever will be very gratefully received and very quickly acted upon! -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:51, 21 April 2024 (UTC)

 * The table is missing its caption.
 * Since the chart's name was "Easy listening" at the time, maybe the first few sentences could be replaced with "Easy Listening was a chart published .... Since then the chart has undergone a number of name changes and is now published as/under the name 'Adult Contemporary'."
 * That's all I got. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 10:16, 21 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Initially the listing was compiled -- comma after initially
 * In 1961 seven different songs -- comma after the year
 * "The Boll Weevil Song" should sort under "B"

Source review: Passed
 * Reliable enough for the information being cited
 * Consistent date formatting
 * Consistent and proper reference formatting
 * Appropriate wikilinks where applicable
 * Sources match what they are being cited for

The only thing I found was in the row for October 9. Should "Orchestra" be capitalized? In the source it says "His Orch.", so if we're matching the source we'd want both words capitalized. However I do think downcasing is the right option in this instance, as "His Orch."/"his Orchestra" are not proper names. Hey man im josh (talk) 18:20, 23 April 2024 (UTC)
