List of Billboard Alternative top 10 singles in 2012[edit]

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

Do we need these for third-level subcharts as well as the primary chart such as the Billboard Hot 100 (List of Billboard Hot 100 top 10 singles in 2012) and UK Singles Chart (List of UK top 10 singles in 2012), which already contains such indiscriminant info such as when songs debuted and how many weeks it spent in the top 10 and when it reached its peak, but we should now do this for every chart imaginable? That seems a bit much. Sure it's nice that these songs reach the top 10 in its particular genre but that's info best provided in the article of those songs but not another inadequately sourced summary chart. --Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars^{Talk to me} 01:55, 20 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I'd be fine with listing #1 singles, but we have to draw a reasonable line somewhere, and it's true that this can be adequately covered within individual articles on songs, artist discography, etc. Kansan (talk) 05:09, 27 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Normally I don't like these kinds of lists, but there are fewer than 50 songs that cracked the top 10 in 2012. I think that is a reasonable number for a page. I can see myself Googling "Top 10 alternative singles 2012" and it would be nice to have a page with that data. AdventurousSquirrel (talk) 19:30, 4 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
