  • Checks out! Sarah (talk) 20:11, 22 April 2012 (UTC)
  • The problem is that it wasn't on the Billboard charts... The Billboard Christian chart didn't start until 2003, and Chapman actually hasn't ever had a No. 1 single on that chart. The total counts his career No. 1s on all charts, and so the total is appropriate. Toa Nidhiki05 20:44, 27 April 2012 (UTC)
  • It may be broadly correct but incorporating the fact that the number 1s were across all charts seems more factual. People may get confused and think that the artist has been in the 'mainstream' charts 45 times as a best selling artist. PanydThe muffin is not subtle 14:59, 28 April 2012 (UTC)
  • Would inserting the word 'career' work, then? While I see what you mean in that they might be confused (Chapman hasn't had a single Hot 100 entry, for instance), I'm not sure it will not be that bad if they read the article. Toa Nidhiki05 15:17, 28 April 2012 (UTC)
I apologise. I was and still am too dense to parse the above sentence and was hoping someone else would agree. As it stands, I defer to your judgement and look forward to seeing the updated hook! PanydThe muffin is not subtle 15:06, 6 May 2012 (UTC)
That works. Toa Nidhiki05 23:31, 8 May 2012 (UTC)
