Not a lot to say, really, The main points about these lists are that they should be (a) accurate, which I assume this is, and (b) clearly introduced, which this more or less is. So I have just a few prose quibbles.
- "This data is..." As "data" is a Latin plural, the correct form is: "These data are..." If you think this sounds a bit pedantic, you could change it to: "This information is..." Done
- "Universe" in the statistical sense of a population from which a sample is taken will not be widely understood, so it might be better to use a term lke "database" Done
- "Twenty-three" could be written as "23" Done
- Clarify the different uses of "debut". In relation to DMX, "debuted" seems to refer to a song's first appearance in the chart. But the reference to Britney Spears' debut album seems to mean the artist's first appearance. Done
- "...and was certified diamond" sounds a bit jargony. "Certified as diamond", with the link, should do. Done
- "and went on to win..." could be simplified to "and won..." Done
Slim pickings, for sure, but I can't see anything else. Brianboulton (talk) 17:05, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
