Talk:List of 1950s one-hit wonders in the United States

message: Lena Horne had only one hit single, but she had several of her albums reached the top 40. In addition to that Lena Horne, and Tommy Dorsey, both clearly had hits before the Billboard 100. That's why I removed these two.--T. Anthony 08:18, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Lena Horne and Tommy Dorsey

message: I don't have the resources on hand to check it (so I didn't remove it), but if I remember right, their "It's a Blue World" sold pretty well, too, as well as several of their albums. Anyone check?

message: The Hot 100 replaced the Top 100 in 1956 ("Poor Little Fool" by Ricky Nelson was its first #1). The introduction should also mention which Billboard charts are being cited for 1950 to 1956 (Top 100? Best Seller? Jukebox?). Until this is determined, the accuracy will always be in question.

thread_title:  Which chart(s) for 1950-1956? 

message: I have reapplied the  tag because I am fairly certain that several of the artists listed are not one hit wonders. I say this because, since you're using pre-Hot 100 charts, you also must keep in mind that several of these artists were charting pre-1955. Somebody really needs to go through and check these entries, because this (and its companions) have proven so error-riddled as to be nearly useless. GassyGuy 10:28, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Disputed 

message: Some of the chart entries are marked "J"; anyone know why? It doesn't seem to say on the page. Chubbles (talk) 19:22, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

message: Has been removed - his "Beer Barrel Polka" went to #1 on Your Hit Parade in 1939. Chubbles (talk) 15:18, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: He's been restored, but I maintain that it makes no sense for him to be here, as he was not a one-hit wonder by any means; his last hit simply came after the invention of this particular chart. Chubbles (talk) 16:58, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

message: The links for The Techniques and The Pastels need to be disambiguated.  The Techniques currently points to the Jamaican group of the 1960's, and The Pastels to the Scottish group of the 1980's. Dan ad nauseam (talk) 03:07, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

message: Gisele Mackenzie is I believe another artist who just happened to have her last top 40 hit in 1955. She had at least 3 top 40 hits earlier in the decade - see her MusicVF entry. I am going to remove her from the list.Brianyoumans (talk) 04:00, 26 February 2013 (UTC)

message: I see a lot of the dates are marked with an asterisk, which is never attached to any definition... What's it for?  TREKphiler any time you're ready, Uhura 20:17, 13 September 2015 (UTC)
