Talk:Lists of Billboard 200 number-one albums

message: May I suggest a name change for all the individual year pages?  "Top 200 No. 1 hits" is rather awkward and the name of the album chart is the "Billboard 200", not "Top 200."  The word "hits" seems to be more appropriate when referring to a single.  Perhaps something like "Number-one albums of 19XX (United States)" or similar?  Thought I'd bring this up before all those pages were created to avoid a problem later.  It may also be a good idea to change "No.1" in the title of this page to "number one", as the Hot 100 lists, the R&B chart lists and the Dance chart lists are all spelled out that way.  May as well keep everything uniform.  -- eo 02:10, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: moved page to new title to conform to the same format as other "number one" lists.  will update the individual pages as well, as no one has reponded to my comment above.  will also begin to populate the year pages. -- eo 14:45, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: year-by-year pages title suggestion

message: Is it possible to out an infobox at the bottom of each year page, like the one on the #1 singles pages? 
BTW, sorry for editing the #1s of 2006 page, the announcement on billboard.com said Mary J. Blige was #1, before changing to be Jamie Foxx, as you had put.
: Yes, it is possible, I will work on one - I held off because as of right now there are many years with missing info.  No sweat about the Blige/Foxx thing - I almost did that too - looks like a misprint at Billboard.com, they kept last week's headline that Blige is #1, but then if you read the article is says Foxx is #1.  Whoops. -- eo 17:20, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Infoboxes 

message: There seems to be a contradiction on when the chart settled in with its current name, 1983 vs. 1992.  The latter seems right (I have a modest collection of Billboards so I could check).  The title "Top LPS and Tape" was used for a while, possibly beginning in 1983. [added] It looks like the Billboard 200 article has the same text.198.30.228.3 00:20, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, I think the text from one article was copy/pasted to the other.  The name "Billboard 200" definitely did not exist in the 80s - I do remember that "Top LPs and Tape" title at one point.  Actually a lot of research should be done on the history of this chart, I know it has gone through several names and number of positions and at one point they even had seperate charts for "mono" albums and "stereo" albums, back when stereo was a new thing.  Billboard has a new Albums Chart book coming out in a few months, but until I can look through it, I'm not sure of the full history here.... unless someone else has more knowledge right now, by all means, post what ya know to be correct.  I'll look thru my own Billboard archives in the meantime. -- eo 19:38, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Billboard also had a separate chart for CD sales starting in 1985, which was folded into the main chart c. 1989.Mapsax 00:22, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Chart title history

message: I've seen many articles with the titles "List of (?) number ones" involving albums, mixtapes, EPs, etc., and I noticed that the Billboard 200 lists also extended to more than albums.
I request to re-arrange "Billboard 200 number-one albums" to lists of Billboard 200 number ones to match its counterpart: the number ones of the Hot 100 as well. Thanks Darrion "Beans" Brown 🙂 (my talk page / my sandbox) 10:25, 21 November 2022 (UTC)

message: there's a lot of pages about UK top 10 albums every year. It should be the same with the US 191.125.4.0 (talk) 02:18, 12 April 2023 (UTC)
