List of The R3-30 number-one hits of 2006[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Unencyclopedic listing of songs that reached number one on a single Canadian radio station/podcast, as opposed to official national charts with independently measured criteria. Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars (talk) 23:57, 9 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete all - There is no indication that this particular chart has received the attention that would justify a list of the chart topppers. -- Whpq (talk) 13:37, 10 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Leaning keep. This would be the closest thing that Canada has to something like List of number-one indie hits of 2011 (UK), even if they're not completely equivalent. There is some indication of media attention for this chart: this in The Georgia Straight, this in Chart, and this in Eye Weekly. Another measure of some impact is that musical artists start to advertise in press releases that they have had success on this chart—for example, Coeur de Pirate "reached number one on CBC Radio 3's R3-30 charts"—something they wouldn't do for local radio station charts.

Keep per Paul Erik. Chester Markel (talk) 01:24, 16 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I really don't listen as I find the hosts annoying. However, per Paul Erik above that's all we got. The indie lists per !Earshot [1] as published montly in Exclaim! are not allowed per WP:BAND. Argolin (talk) 03:36, 16 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
