Disambiguation link notification for March 13

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited List of best-selling singles, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Madonna (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

/* Changes in ownership of Billboard*/

I'm manually undoing your removal of my reference...you claim that the Billboard website "doesn't mention Prometheus at all",but the linked URL at the Billboard site clearly says "Billboard is owned by Prometheus Global Media".12.144.5.2 (talk) 23:53, 13 April 2018 (UTC)

List of Best Selling Singles edit question

I was wondering why you reverted my edit to List of best-selling singles. The information I added had a credible source, was beneficial to the page, and to my knowledge, there was no good reason for it to be removed. You did not specify an exact reason for reverting my edit as well.165.234.101.57 (talk) 16:11, 26 March 2019 (UTC)

Longest Climbs to Number One Mainstream Top 40

So I noticed that you removed a bunch of information for the “Longest climbs to number one” section on the Mainstream Top 40 page. While some of the stuff was indeed unsourced, it doesn’t make any sense to remove all of them for the sake of the cited stuff.

I’m planning, though, to add sources to the rest of the songs (by tomorrow, don’t have time today) on the list using chart history (which shows when the songs first hit number one), and the chart archives for each of the weeks when it first hit #1 (to show that the song actually hit #1 on the given week). This should be enough to source everything. The reference given for “Never be the Same” verifies that those are all of the songs that have spent 20 weeks or more to hit number one, so missing songs won’t be an issue.
