The section on the SLAPP suit needs to be expanded, and probably needs a different title. Shinobu 06:49, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
I'm new to the edit history of this page, but there are apparently dozens of edits over this single sentence (and an access date). I apologize for not checking first to see the apparent roaring edit war before reverting User:Zoizoiz2's latest edit as vandalism. I suppose it's not exactly vandalism when taken alone, but when several people keep reverting your edit, perhaps it's worth sitting down to discuss?
That said, I think even though the statement may be true, it's not so important that it's worth edit warring over. The Oricon charts are certainly among the best-known of Japan's music charts. They may even be the most well-known. But I would argue that that's pretty much impossible to find a solid citation for; even though your citations might support that it's quite important, I wouldn't trust any source as to what is the most well-known, particularly not a quickie written by Nippop. (Nothing against Nippop, just that I'm pretty darn sure they didn't do any real research before citing Oricon as the "best-known".) In any case, the information doesn't really add much to the article. Is there any really compelling reason why it should be in here, and do you have a good source for it? —Jediknil (talk) 05:55, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
I have two red-links in W-inds. to individual-chart Articles waiting to be written: Weekly Albums Chart and Weekly Singles Chart, already prepped for this Article. What References are available for articles on the individual Oricon charts? B. C. Schmerker (talk) 02:28, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
Didn't BoA have a number one with 'Do The Motion' in 2005, or does South Korea not count as 'international'? The flying pasty (talk) 17:34, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
Please see Talk:AKB48#Record sales concerning a re-evaluation of Oricon rankings based on bulk CD sales, and see if this would be useful to document for this article. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 19:05, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
Since most charts in other countries are incorporating digital downloads and streaming, is it necessary to add the combined singles and albums chart, introduced in 2018, as a separate list in the articrles because it gives it a more accurate picture of what the country is listening in recent years than sourcing from just physical sales.
