Carla Monroe
- ... that before Carla Monroe's vocals were used in MK's 17, she was working in a prison?
- ALT1: ... that D.O.D. & Carla Monroe's "Still Sleepless" spent twenty-three weeks at the top of the UK Independent Singles Breakers Chart?

- Comment: QPQ forthcoming - remind me. At time of writing, Refill is down (and I really, really don't want to have to format all those URLs manually).

Overall: 
Official Charts citation issue needs to be dealt with before I can pass this. Passed. Grnrchst (talk) 15:32, 7 June 2023 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, no single usable place says 23 weeks beyond List of UK Independent Singles Breakers Chart number ones of the 2020s, so they all have to be used. I need longer to decide what the solution to this is.--Launchballer 18:36, 8 June 2023 (UTC)
- In the interim, Template:Did you know nominations/Falaki Shirvani.--Launchballer 08:49, 9 June 2023 (UTC)
- Grnrchst: Is this better?--Launchballer 09:25, 9 June 2023 (UTC)
- It's better now that it doesn't have the issues of citation overkill and bare urls, but I worry it still borders on synth territory. Is there a reason you're threading these different placements together instead of using the data from the "WoC (Weeks on Chart)" column? --Grnrchst (talk) 09:32, 9 June 2023 (UTC)
- Yes. "Weeks on Chart" gives a number for the time it spent on the entire top twenty, while 23 is the number it spent at the top of the chart. Such routine calculations are explicitly allowed per WP:CALC, and my number is corroborated by List of UK Independent Singles Breakers Chart number ones of the 2020s.--Launchballer 09:41, 9 June 2023 (UTC)
- Ok, thanks for clarifying. Passing this now. --Grnrchst (talk) 12:35, 9 June 2023 (UTC)
- Just to say that the OCC website has been reworked to include sub-chart positions, so I no longer need to synthesise anything.--Launchballer 13:15, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
