  • Redirect to Skillet or the album per ATD-R. L3X1 ◊distænt write◊ 19:52, 13 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - The Skillet discography states that it topped a Christian Rock chart. It's not sourced though. Is this not true? Sergecross73 msg me 01:07, 15 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Sergecross73: I'm not sure. At the time there was no single "Christian Rock Chart". There were several who were vying for the title. R&R had one, and there were several other, smaller companies proclaiming a chart. Billboard definitely wasn't interested for another few years. That's why there's no reference in the 90s, and not until "late 2000s"—I think they started in around 2005—do you see a link to https://www.billboard.com/music/skillet/chart-history/christian-rock as a reference. The first all rock Christian radio station didn't start until the mid-90s. Prior to that you had rock shows that aired at times when contemporary Christian music stations thought they could get away without offending their regular listeners (late Fridays or Saturdays, and early Sundays) who compiled local lists. I volunteered a programme like that, and there were no centralized charts. Walter Görlitz (talk) 01:41, 15 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
      • Thanks for the background info. I know the workings/history of all the general rock charts, but not the Christian rock ones, so that was informational. Sergecross73 msg me 14:47, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Hey You, I Love Your Soul - Song is mentioned on the tracklisting so makes sense to redirect there. –Davey2010Talk 17:41, 15 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Album - See my reasoning at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gasoline (Skillet song). ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 14:10, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect for now. I'd be open to spinning it back out if someone if there's any truth to the unsourced claim of it charting. Sergecross73 msg me 14:47, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
