Billboard Top 40 of 1980[edit]

Simply WP:IINFO, plus title of article is not clearly depicting what the list is about. A more specific title, from what I gather about this list, would be something like "List of Billboard Hot 100 top 40 singles in 1980". Nevertheless, we have lists for number-one singles and top 10 singles on the Hot 100, and we don't need to be creating lists for additional, arbitrary depths of the chart.

  • Comment. I can't defend its existence but it was created as a split-off from the main music articles, in which it formed a superfluous section. Deb (talk) 21:34, 8 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete all as WP:IINFO. I think we're stretching it with the top 10 list. There may as well be a list of every song that reached the Billboard Hot 100 should these stay. --StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 20:45, 10 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
