I am nominating this for featured list because is a merge from three previous featured lists and we reached a consensus for this union so the list can be even more helpful to readers. The previous featured lists were: List of number-one Billboard Top Latin Albums of 1993, 1994 and 1995 and List of number-one Billboard Top Latin Albums of 1996, 1997 and 1998. The list for 1999 is still a FL, but I'll redirect it to the merge.Jaespinoza (talk) 19:01, 20 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The 1999 list needs to go through FLRC. I'll list it while this FLC goes on. Dabomb87 (talk) 19:08, 20 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank you so much, I wasn't aware of the procedure. Jaespinoza (talk) 19:28, 20 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment There are several dead links. Check the toolbox to the right. Dabomb87 (talk) 20:25, 22 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support Opposing Comments from Dabomb87 (talk · contribs) Opposing until Billboard links are fixed, as that makes most of the list unverifiable.
- I performed a copy-edit of the lead; please make sure I didn't accidentally introduce errors.
The images need alternative text. They only have captions right now.Dabomb87 (talk) 14:59, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Except for the Billboard links, which should be fixed when possible, Sources look good. Dabomb87 (talk) 19:10, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Ref 6, the "Gold and Platinum" is unnecessary in the work.- Billboard's links are dead, but we just have to wait and fix them.
The CNN link is dead.What makes http://www.clarin.com/diario/1999/01/06/c-00301d.htm reliable (I'm not fluent in Spanish, so I wasn't sure if it was a news company or something else)?Dabomb87 (talk) 14:59, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]- I don't know whether the way the general reference is presented is acceptable or not, but I don't mind it. It explains every step that needs to be done to verify the info you want, so it's fine to me. As for the dead links, Billboard has moved all of its pages, so it's just a matter of time to find the right links.--Crzycheetah 01:57, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I fixed most of the refs, except the main ones. Dabomb, could you add the alt text? You're the expert around here.--Crzycheetah 05:24, 30 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- It's very difficult to see, for instance, how long Ricky Martin's Vuelve was at number one since it was split over so many different runs at the top. Any idea on how this can be improved?
- Is there any point in the navbox having two separate year ranges which both point to this list? The Rambling Man (talk) 16:41, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Dance with Me (soundtrack) is the only album that is not linked. Should it be section-linked to Dance with Me (film)#Film soundtrack, or should it be redlinked? Dabomb87 (talk) 18:28, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I'd either link it to the section or just redirect Dance with Me (soundtrack) to the section.--Crzycheetah 18:42, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I added a new article for the soundtrack... the list is now complete!.Jaespinoza (talk) 02:02, 3 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Two billboard links are busted right now. They're reorganizing the site, but it should be a reasonably easy fix to poke around and find the new ones. Staxringold talkcontribs 20:21, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I have found this link that shows the first week's chart. In that page, right under the logo, there's a date that states "July 10, 1993", anyone can click on that date to open a calendar and choose the week he/she wants to see by selecting the right year and month. Now, I realize it's a little complicated, but, as I see, the Billboard wants it to be this complicated. What do you guys think? Should we accept this way of verifying info or not? I personally don't mind it.--Crzycheetah 21:44, 2 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I used the same link to fix the older ones. It is easy to find info in the billboard.biz site, but is for members only, so this is our best option to find out about the number one albums from this chart. This Billboard re-arrange... is kinda hard.Jaespinoza (talk) 02:02, 3 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
