List of Hot Soul Singles number ones of 1973

 * Nominator(s): ChrisTheDude (talk) 16:54, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

Hi everyone, me yet again! With 1971 recently promoted and 1972 making good progress, 1973 seems like the next logical step. In this particular year, the longest-running number one was a track by Marvin Gaye which must be one of the most sensual songs of all time. Feedback as every gratefully received and swiftly acted upon...... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 16:54, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

 * Perhaps it's just me or how I read this line were debut number ones -- should it be were number one debuts?
 * Both are valid -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:25, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
 * For this one, a clarification: Sylvia made her first appearance -- does Robinson go by a mononym as her stage name when referred to as an individual artist?
 * Yes, she was always credited as simply Sylvia during her performing days -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:25, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
 * For the table header, add
 * Darn, I always forget that! -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:25, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
 * That's all from me. Pseud 14 (talk) 17:45, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
 * - thanks! -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:25, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Support. Another solid work. Pseud 14 (talk) 12:42, 1 August 2023 (UTC)

NØ

 * "Wonder returned to number one for a single week in September" - The last year mentioned before this sentence is 1972, so it might be helpful to mention that it is the September of 1973 that is being referred to here.
 * "The year's longest unbroken run at number was achieved by Marvin Gaye" - number one...?
 * "who spent six consecutive weeks in the peak position" - "peak" is already implied by the use of "number one" earlier in the sentence so you could just say "who spent six consecutive weeks in the position"
 * That should be all from me!--NØ 12:38, 2 August 2023 (UTC)
 * - thanks - done! -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 19:06, 2 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Support--NØ 19:27, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Dank

 * Standard disclaimer: I don't know what I'm doing, and I mostly AGF on sourcing.
 * "the title Best Selling Soul Singles": looks like this clashes with MOS:LINKINNAME
 * The Ohio Players should probably sort under "O".
 * Checking the FLC criteria:
 * 1. Nothing is jumping out at me as a prose problem. I checked sorting on all sortable nonnumeric columns and sampled the links in the table.
 * 2. The lead meets WP:LEAD and defines the inclusion criteria.
 * 3a. The list has comprehensive items and annotations.
 * 3b. The list is well-sourced to reliable sources, and the UPSD tool isn't indicating any actual problems (but this isn't a source review). All relevant retrieval dates are present.
 * 3c. The list meets requirements as a stand-alone list, it isn't a content fork, it doesn't largely duplicate another article (that I can find), and it wouldn't fit easily inside another article.
 * 4. It is navigable.
 * 5. It meets style requirements. At a glance, the images seem fine.
 * 6. It is stable.
 * Close enough for a support. Well done. - Dank (push to talk) 04:14, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
 * - thanks for your review. The first point was a legacy from when the lead was worded differently and that was the first use of the word "soul".  I changed it around but clearly forgot to remove that link...... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:15, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Looks good now, thanks. - Dank (push to talk) 12:22, 7 August 2023 (UTC)

No spotcheck necessary, will focus on formatting and reliability. MyCatIsAChonk (talk) (not me) (also not me) (still no) 14:33, 18 August 2023 (UTC) , that's all I got, very nice job keeping consistent formatting. MyCatIsAChonk (talk) (not me) (also not me) (still no) 14:33, 18 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Source review from MyCatIsAChonk
 * Ref 9: using AllMusic for a biographical detail is questionable per WP:ALLMUSIC; got a better source?
 * Unrelated, but there's a false title in the top image caption
 * - done! -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 15:39, 18 August 2023 (UTC)
