Nothing about me here (who am I, anyway?). Just handy links and reference material for myself.

Certs tools

Australia / ARIA

[edit]
  • Determine cert year by choosing from ARIA certs pages.
  • Use template: <ref>{{Cite certification |region=Australia |type=single |certyear=1998 |accessdate=December 25, 2011}}</ref>
  • When not on certs page yet, but (still) on current Top 50 Singles:
<ref name="AUScurrent50">{{cite web|url=http://www.ariacharts.com.au/pages/charts_display.asp?chart=1U50 |title=ARIA Top 50 Singles Charts: 31/10/2011 |publisher=[[Australian Recording Industry Association]] |accessdate=October 31, 2011}}</ref>

Canada / (CRIA) Music Canada

[edit]
  • CRIA links (do any still work?).
  • Music Canada link to search and sample ref:
http://musiccanada.com/GPSearchResult.aspx?st=Loud&ica=False&sa=Rihanna&sl=&smt=0&sat=-1&ssd=9/1/2011&sed=10/1/2011&ssb=Artist
st=Title
ica=Search Canadian Artists Only. True/False
sa=Artist
sl=Label
smt=Media type. Number 1-10 from list index
sat=Award type. E.g., TRIPLE PLATINUM ALBUM(S)
ssd=Start date
sed=End date
ssb=Sort by
&ssdir=ascending/descending
<ref>{{cite web|url=http://musiccanada.com/GPSearchResult.aspx?sa=Notorious+B.I.G. |title=Gold and Platinum Search (Notorious B.I.G.) |publisher=[[Music Canada]] |accessdate=October 5, 2011}}</ref>

Germany / BVMI

[edit]
  • "Gold/Platin-Datenbank" (in German). Bundesverband Musikindustrie. Retrieved 2010-06-19.
  • "Gold/Platin-Datenbank" (in German). Bundesverband Musikindustrie. Retrieved 2010-07-01.
  • "Gold/Platin-Datenbank" (in German). Bundesverband Musikindustrie. Changed again ~2010-10-27.
  • "Gold-/Platin-Datenbank (Eminem; 'Encore')" (in German). Bundesverband Musikindustrie. Template 2010-07-29
    (Muhandes is a genius: use {{Cite certification|region=Germany|artist=Eminem|title=Encore}}).

NL / NVPI

[edit]
  • 1978–2006: Functioning DB <ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.ifpi.nl/nvpi/pagina.asp?pagkey=60461 |title=NVPI, de branchevereniging van de entertainmentindustrie – Goud/Platina |publisher=[[NVPI]] |accessdate=2011-12-31}}</ref>
  • 1951–2011: Totally broken DB (contains 11 test entries).

NZ / RIANZ

[edit]

Bulletin, 12.11.11: All bets are off; those dumbasses at RIANZ have changed their site, so the below URLs all redirect to http://nztop40.co.nz/ (showing only the current Top 40). Maybe someday the thing in the upper-right that resembles a drop-down list of charts will actually work. Bloody idiots.

News flash. 19.12.11: Thanks to Harout72, there may be salvation: http://rianz.org.nz/rianz/oldchart.asp gets us to the old charts, it appears. Will research...

  • With song/album search charts to see when it was released/moving. That can help when stabbing at weekly links at RIANZ site.
  • NZ direct links to any charts: Weekly and EOY Replace chart number (chartNum) or year (chartYear) as needed, and chartKind with S=singles, A=albums, D=DVDs, C=compilations, H=radio airplay (thanks to Adabow) Sample ref here.
[1]
<ref>{{cite web|url=http://rianz.org.nz/rianz/chart.asp?chartNum=1784&chartKind=S |title=RIANZ: Chart #1784 - Monday 1 August 2011 / Top 40 Singles Chart (select from drop-down lists) |publisher=[[Recording Industry Association of New Zealand]] |accessdate=2011-10-21}}</ref>
