List of number-one hits (Japan)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

The majority of the page is full of red links and only three blue links. This page is unnecessary and not needed as there is a template for those years. MS (Talk|Contributions) 16:10, 16 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. I'm looking at the first discussion and it appears that this page is substantially identical to the version that was deleted several months ago. Is that the case? — Rankiri (talk) 17:41, 16 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as per the nominator. Is this a case of reposted material? If so I am afraid that this should be speedy deleted. RFerreira (talk) 17:46, 16 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Question Other than the fact its sourced solely to non-English sourcing (a problem) and the fact that the majority of the entries are red links (not necessarily a problem), what is the difference between this list and List of number-one hits (United States)? They serve as a directory, and in the Japanese example, as an indication of how much work needs to be done to start the listed articles. Abrazame (talk) 22:47, 21 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and comment It will take time to to slowly turn those redlinks blue. Rome wasn't built in a day. If the result of the first discussion was delete, why is it still here? Or was the article re-created? Mr. C.C.^{Hey yo!}_{I didn't do it!} 02:37, 24 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
