List of Billboard Hot 100 number-one singles of 2013

 * Nominator(s): Simon (talk) 07:52, 25 December 2013 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because... I think this list is appropriate for being a featured list. Simon (talk) 07:52, 25 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Two issues I have are that there are no third-party sources (which I'm sure must exist for this topic) and the content fork (criteria 3b for FLs) with List of Billboard Hot 100 number-one singles of the 2010s, which covers the same material. -- Star cheers peaks news lost wars Talk to me 19:41, 26 December 2013 (UTC)
 * It's not a fork because this has much more information and highlights about number-one singles only in 2013, while the list of 2010s does not include this. Also I have added several third-party sources &mdash; Simon (talk) 05:06, 27 December 2013 (UTC)
 * "A content fork is the creation of multiple separate articles all treating the same subject" - the subject being Hot 100 number-one singles, so the decade and individual year lists will always be content forks of each other. -- Star cheers peaks news lost wars Talk to me 19:50, 27 December 2013 (UTC)


 * Comment (having stumbled here from my FLC discussion page). The list page is indeed meticulously cited, nice job so far by, however as to the quality of the sources themselves, I think it likely that third-party-sources exist for this info. Are the current sources satisfactory for WP:RS and WP:V? Yes. But still it could only help to improve the page further to buttress those with additional third-party-sources, as well. As far as the existence of the list page itself in relation to List of Billboard Hot 100 number-one singles of the 2010s, as mentioned above by , I think I'd like to hear from additional editors about that element, before weighing in further on that issue. Cheers, &mdash; Cirt (talk) 12:35, 3 February 2014 (UTC)


 * Comments from WikiRedactor
 * I agree that it would be nice to more sources outside of Billboard; I see they're are some that are from other websites, but I'd like to see more.
 * I have currently provided more third party sources, and there are now four &mdash; Simon (talk) 02:27, 4 February 2014 (UTC)
 * I would also like to see the dates written out in the citations, as opposed to the current number abbreviations in the article.
 * Per MOS:DATEUNIFY, dates can be formatted as YYYY-MM-DD and there's nothing wrong with that &mdash; Simon (talk) 13:34, 4 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Please add Prometheus Global Media as the publisher for all of the Billboard sources (same with Hearst Corporation for Digital Spy.) WikiRedactor (talk) 22:51, 3 February 2014 (UTC)
 * The publishers are not really necessary here and are repetitive. Nothing wrong with that &mdash; Simon (talk) 02:27, 4 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Not a problem (since some of my suggestions appeared to be just personal preferences), and the content is all in order, so I will support this nomination. WikiRedactor (talk) 20:30, 6 February 2014 (UTC)


 * Oppose per 3.b. This list has essentially only 11 entries and could be easily merged into a "... singles of 2010s". Nergaal (talk) 10:27, 6 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Oppose WP:CFORK of List of Billboard Hot 100 number-one singles of the 2010s. Adabow (talk) 21:12, 21 March 2014 (UTC)
