UKMIX

I'm surprised you use ukmix as a source, is there some reason it wont fall under WP:SPS? --Muhandes (talk) 19:54, 15 December 2022 (UTC)

Muhandes, for obvious reasons identified on WP:SPS, I usually steer clear of such platforms for use as a reference, but I do think it's a shame not to utilise any of the chart data being published on there. I have no doubt as to the authenticity of the data; it's just unfortunate what platform is being used to publish the data. Judging this SPS on its own merits, given that the top 100 of each weekly chart being posted matches that on the Official Charts Company website, I see no indication that the 101-200 positions would be unreliable. The data is transcribed directly from the Gallup chart records held in the BPI library which, as stated on the forum, has not been open to the public for a number of years now. I have seen other similar sources (e.g. the blog bubblingdownunder.com for Australian chart positions) used in a fairly widespread fashion without question.

I hear you, but as we don't allow websites like chartsaroundtheworld.com or even UKchartsplus.co.uk, how can we allow a forum where there is no way at all to verify credibility? Maybe we should take this discussion to WT:CHARTS? Muhandes (talk) 08:03, 16 December 2022 (UTC)

That's understandable. I would argue on a minor level that many of the links listed on 'Websites to avoid' are included for either reproducing charts that are available from official sources or having unknown sourcing/unclear methodology, whereas the data on UKMIX has been recorded as having been sourced and directly transcribed from official industry papers held by the BPI. I would also add my belief that the data in these particular threads on UKMIX is little different to the UK 101-200 positions listed on zobbel.de which have been fairly well used across Wikipedia over the years (2,579 results according to search results). That is my reasoning for having used it across a few pages on Wikipedia. Having said that, there is no way to verify the data without seeing the original papers held by the BPI. That seems unachievable, so I don't suppose the consensus of a discussion on the forum will find it an acceptable source. Ajsmith141 (talk) 16:49, 16 December 2022 (UTC)

Don't need a liner notes citation per MOS:ALBUM

Hello. Thank you for adding a personnel section to Music in a Foreign Language, but per MOS:ALBUM, it is expected personnel sections come from the liner notes, so they don't need explicit citation in most cases. There's nothing contentious about the personnel credited on a 20-year-old Lloyd Cole album, so I've removed it. Thanks. Ss112 11:02, 8 May 2023 (UTC)

No worries, I'll bear that in mind, thanks. Ajsmith141 (talk) 11:46, 8 May 2023 (UTC)
