I know this is likely not the right forum but it was the one that would likely get the most immediate attention.
I had a thought that I'm sure would go over well with people here and might help with building interest in the personal charts community a bit. How about an M4B Wiki page?
I know you can set them up somehow. I was going to set one up for my own chart but I figured it was pointless but if we had a bunch of us with our own charts, maybe we could set it up ourselves.
Basically, we could have pages for artists and for our own charts. So, for example, Katy Perry would have a wiki page with whatever biography we wanted to include (although maybe just keep it to M4B relevant stuff) and have all of her singles along with their peaks on whoever wanted to include their charts into it. Since anyone can update, we can each just update whatever pages we want with our own chart peak information. And with so many of us, it would only take days until there could be hundreds of pages for hundreds of artists.
Maybe also have really important or groundbreaking songs have their own wiki page too.
And the wiki page for our own charts can have the chart's history and information and of course can link to important artists' wiki's pages and stuff.
Thoughts?

Interesting idea there! I'd be up for possibly help setting it up.
We can include Globalchart history on there as well on the artists' pages.

Ahhh sounds awesome! I have no clue how to edit or add info there, but maybe one day I'll contribute

A timely idea! I had thought about a basic wiki a few years ago, and probably still have a copy of the text that I wrote, but hadn't fully fleshed it out.
When I have time - probably not for several weeks - I can work on updating that text, unless someone else would like to tackle it.
Bryan - could you please make this an announcement across the forums?

I made an entry for my own chart. Maybe it can serve as a basic template even though I have sections that others probably don't have on theirs and am likely missing portions that I'll add later. m4bcc.pbworks.com/w/page/32884585/The-Max-ChartI may start making sections for specific artists too. I'm wondering how much information is too much that isn't really relevant for us. I don't think we want to make them too long and try to keep it to personal chart related stuff.

Yes I think you want to watch what's already available in the general Wikipedia and other duplication. To me, it should be unique to M4BCC.
