MYX Hit Chart

Non-notable chart, not covered in any reliable sources, dubious methodology. Hosted by myx which is notable, but notability is by no means inherited. Doesn't seem worth merging as it's almost entirely unverifiable. Regardless of outcome, should be added to WP:BADCHARTS.

I'm going to split my vote:
- Keep MYX Hit Chart and Pinoy MYX Countdown. While the charts use a bogus methodology that keeps them from being useful, the same is true for TRL and a pile of other similar shows. MYX isn't a major network, but it has a high-enough profile that the basic charts are worth documenting.
- Delete the rest: because SMS messaging isn't a legitimate basis for charts, documenting which songs happened to receive more votes than another isn't necessary.—Kww(talk) 18:38, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Your keep argument is basically WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. It still needs sources. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP)} 18:46, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I had my doubts about this stuff for a while but I wasn't sure whether this was something with a big local following so I only tagged some of them. My view is that any chart which is not based on sales is on very dubious territory. Such non-sales charts exist in their thousands and nobody takes much notice of them. According to Wikipedia:Record charts, I see that some airplay charts are also considered acceptable. Even so, these charts are based on things like text messages. That is clearly no good. Unless there is RS coverage, these should all be deleted. --DanielRigal (talk) 18:47, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
