The list for 1974 has already got three supports, so I figure there's no harm in nominating 1975. As ever, feedback will be most gratefully received and swiftly acted upon -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 21:55, 27 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

edit- Maybe worth linking black music
- including one which spent two weeks in the top spot but non-consecutively - spent two non-consecutive weeks
- would achieve little further success in chart terms - perhaps it can be written as moderate success instead?
- for the table header add
{{abbr|Ref.|Reference}}
- Suggest tweaking the caption for the Staples singers (as you did with the 1972 list) to avoid the parenthetical within a parenthetical.
- That's all I got. Great work as usual. Pseud 14 (talk) 01:41, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

edit- "related African American-oriented music genres; the chart has undergone various name changes over the decades to reflect the evolution of such genres" - do you think this sentence could do without the "of such genres" part to avoid repetition?
- Either "top" or "topped" appears in every single sentence in the lead's last paragraph. Some variation is possible if you use "summit", "crowned", "pinnacle", or something like that. (apologies for my weird suggestions, you may be able to think of something better)
- "Ten of 1975's soul number ones also topped the all-genre Hot 100 listing." - Maybe avoid starting the sentence with a number: "Among 1975's soul number ones, ten also topped the all-genre Hot 100 listing."
- "had already topped the Hot 100 in late 1974, and reached the top of the soul chart" - I believe there shouldn't be a comma here.
- Image review passes as far as I can tell since everything seems to be properly licensed and in line with other lists in this series.--NØ 07:50, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hey man im josh
edit- Source review: Sources all seem to be reliable enough and are well formatted. I'm not finding any issues and neither is the link checker.

edit- "Billboard's all-genre Hot 100 chart" - Source is needed to show Hot 100 is for all genres in 1974, otherwise all-genre should be dropped.
- "The Ohio Players reached the summit of both charts during 1975...the Hot 100 in early 1976." - I think the 1975 Hot 100 chart should be cited again and adjacent to the 1976 Hot 100 chart cited in this sentence. This is because Fire was #1 in 1975 while Love Rollercoaster was #1 in 1976. The only citation in the sentence is the 1976 chart.
- "which would go on to be one of the most successful acts in the disco genre" - not sure if Kallen states this. It mentions KC and the Sunshine Band was one of the artists that had a disco #1. It doesn't say that KC and the Sunshine Band had a successful disco career.
- "reached number one on the listing for the first time in 1975" - Kool & the Gang reached #1 with Hollywood Swinging during 1974. Therefore this part and page 246 citation should be removed from Whitburn 1988.
- "New Birth gained the only number ones of their respective careers" - Whitburn 1988 page number for New Birth is 305, not 282.
- Billboard lists Natalie Cole's song as This Will Be. Source needed to show the full name as This Will Be (An Everlasting Love).
- Billboard also gives the full name of The Spinners song as They Just Can't Stop It the (Games People Play). I think the full name should be used here to match the source. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 00:48, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- @MrLinkinPark333: - thanks for your review, all addressed I think -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:44, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- @ChrisTheDude: - Thank you for working on these points quickly! I have only two additional comments based on the edits above:
- Source needed to show Hot 100 was the pop singles chart in 1974.
- Part of Stacey & Henderson's quote is missing. It should be "K. C. and the Sunshine Band, and Michael Jackson." Otherwise, you can put an ellipsis and period after K.C. and the Sunshine Band like you did with Fallon's quote. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 15:38, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- @MrLinkinPark333: - both done -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 16:44, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
