List of Most Played Juke Box Folk Records number ones of 1947

 * Nominator(s): ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:32, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

Sorry folks, here is yet another in the never-ending country number ones project. So far 56 of these have been promoted to FL, so here's the next one, covering a year in which one of the most successful songs was about smoking cigarettes - not sure that would happen nowadays....... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:32, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

 * Support! Support! Support! (apologies to Mr. Williams) – All looks good. —Ojorojo (talk) 16:06, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Support - the things I would suggest would be using  for the table's reference heading and adding archive links to the online sources, but aside from those nitpicks everything looks good.--AlexandraIDV 16:48, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

 * "songs in the United States, based on the number of times a song" songs/song repetitive.
 * Fixed -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:30, 1 November 2020 (UTC)
 * " in jukeboxes; " for my benefit, where were these jukeboxes? How many were there?  The List of Billboard number-one country songs article isn't very helpful in that sense.  Indeed, shouldn't that article be linked here somewhere in the lead?
 * Fixed -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:30, 1 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes, mildly confused now as this list says "The Juke Box Folk chart is considered part of the lineage of the current Hot Country Songs chart" but I though the link above was more relevant.
 * Apologies, I may be being very thick but I don't understand. What "link above" do you refer to?  And could you clarify how the sentence is confusing? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:30, 1 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I get it now - fixed -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 10:02, 1 November 2020 (UTC)
 * " in the top spot." repetitive as you started the sentence with "The number-one position ..."
 * Fixed -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:37, 1 November 2020 (UTC)
 * " in the top spot since the issue of Billboard dated October 26, 1946," how many weeks was that?
 * Fixed -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:37, 1 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I think the chronology for Travis is mildly confusing, you could (and should) add that Tubb broke the Divorce Me C.O.D. run and went back to number one between Travis' hits.
 * Fixed -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:37, 1 November 2020 (UTC)
 * "He would have two " tres americain. "He had two"?
 * Fixed -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:37, 1 November 2020 (UTC)
 * And then you go into "would" overdrive!
 * Fixed -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:37, 1 November 2020 (UTC)
 * " country number one singles" should that "number-one" be hyphenated?
 * Fixed -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:38, 1 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Bob Willis (not the cricketer) was "widely known as the "King of Western Swing",[11]" but I looked at source 11 and could see that phrase at all. Our article also calls it "Western swing" rather than "Western Swing".
 * Different source found. Also note it's Bob Wills, not Willis :-) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:44, 1 November 2020 (UTC)
 * - all done bar one where I could do with some clarification....... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:44, 1 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Support my concerns addressed. The Rambling Man (Hands! Face! Space!&#33;!&#33;) 10:09, 1 November 2020 (UTC)

Source review – The reliability of the sources looks fine throughout and the link-checker tool shows no problems. Just a few random formatting issues to fix:
 * The page range in ref 4 looks funky. You have two of the same number in there.
 * Refs 3 and 4 should probably have the longer 13-digit ISBNs, for consistency and per MoS guidelines.
 * Ref 2 could use an en dash in the title for the year range. Giants2008  ( Talk ) 23:18, 5 November 2020 (UTC)
 * - all done -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:22, 6 November 2020 (UTC)
 * All of the changes look good. The source review has been passed. Giants2008  ( Talk ) 23:05, 7 November 2020 (UTC)
