List of best-selling music artists

Please refrain from moving artists upwards at the List of best-selling music artists without having a clear understanding about how the list is operated. All artists are required to have certain amount of certified sales based on the first year of their charting. The details for that information are posted at Talk:List of best-selling music artists, see second yellow box from the top.--Harout72 (talk) 00:24, 24 March 2015 (UTC)

Taylor Swift's "Shake it Off" on Billboard Hot 100

Hi, I came across your edits at List of Billboard Hot 100 chart achievements and milestones, regarding the performance of the song in the top ten on the Hot 100. With your edits, you are saying that the song spent 25 weeks in the top ten, but this is in fact incorrect. After the Hot 100 chart you cited from February 21, 2015, where it does indicate 25 weeks on the chart (which means the entire Hot 100), the song did not register any additional weeks in the top ten, but there was one week prior to February 21 where it briefly fell out of the top ten, to #11 as you can see from this Hot 100 chart on January 3, 2015. So, the song ended up with less than 25 total weeks in the top ten. MPFitz1968 (talk) 22:40, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
