List of Hot Country Singles number ones of 1964

 * Nominator(s): ChrisTheDude (talk) 14:34, 31 July 2020 (UTC)

A total of 49 of these number one country song lists have now been successfully promoted to FL, so here's what I hope will be the 50th in the set. Please note that my WP time will be minimal between August 8th and 18th, but otherwise I will respond super-promptly to comments, and anything raised between those dates will be jumped on as soon as I am back full-time if it hasn't already been..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 14:34, 31 July 2020 (UTC)

Comments Support from The Squirrel Conspiracy
This is in pretty good shape already. Remarkably little to poke at.


 * "In August 1964 Jim Reeves achieved the first of several posthumous number ones with "I Guess I'm Crazy"; the singer had been killed in a plane crash the previous month." - Please clarify "first of several". Was this the first time for this person, the first time anyone appeared on the list posthumously, or the first posthumous entry of 1964?
 * Lefty Frizzell's image being wider than anyone else's looks a tad strange (the image is taller than the section at 1440p, so the lead image and the body images are stacked one on top of another). Consider making all four pictures the same width.
 * The own work claim for File:At San quentin 1969 2014-05-04 00-14.jpg strikes me as slightly dubious. Not enough to file a deletion nomination, but it'd be safer to choose another image of clearer copyright status, like File:Johnny Cash 1977.jpg (or another one from Commons:Category:Johnny Cash).
 * Please add a Short description.

That's it. Ping me when you want me to check back. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 21:11, 31 July 2020 (UTC)
 * all done. I decided to go with a different picture of ol' Lefty in the lead.  In my opinion, landscape images work better in the lead anyway..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:10, 1 August 2020 (UTC)
 * ChrisTheDude: The replacement image of Johnny Cash has the same concern as the first one. I'm generally distrustful of own work claims where the upload is a heavily cropped old photo and the uploader has minimal edits (Commons or cross-wiki). I've seen too many turn out to be not own work. However, it's not something to hold the nomination up over, so I'm going to go ahead and Support now.

 * I've changed it for a different image just to make absolutely sure.... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:17, 2 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Comments from Medusa
 * would stand until 2013, when Florida Georgia Line → stand until 2013 when
 * most influential vocalists, gained his final → music's most influential vocalists gained his
 * Another great list. Great work!  CAPTAIN MEDUSA   talk  12:10, 1 August 2020 (UTC)
 * - I have done the first one but I am going to have to respectfully disagree with you on the second one, because that comma is needed to end the subordinate clause which starts with the comma after Frizzell's name....... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 17:38, 1 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Support — Once again, great work!  CAPTAIN MEDUSA   talk  10:21, 2 August 2020 (UTC)

Support Another one well-done. —Ojorojo (talk) 13:26, 2 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Support – couldn't find anything. Looks to me like it meets all 6 FL criteria.  Great work! —Bloom6132 (talk) 13:05, 3 August 2020 (UTC)

Source review - Pass
Doubt there will be much, if anything to say, but doing now. Aza24 (talk) 08:20, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Yep I got nothing :) All consistent and reliable sources/sourcing. Pass for source review. Aza24 (talk) 08:22, 13 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Support Are you planning on making this a featured topic? ~ HAL  333  15:44, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * - the thought has crossed my mind, but I'm not really sure what the "cap stone" would be. I can't really see how List of Billboard number-one country hits could be expanded to FL standard..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 16:08, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Good point. It would have be one heck of a featured topic though. ~ HAL  333  17:28, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Maybe just Hot Country Songs? The lead article doesn't need to precisely match the scope of the topic, as long as it encompasses it. -- Pres N  20:53, 29 August 2020 (UTC)

Promoting. -- Pres N  20:53, 29 August 2020 (UTC)
