The Voice UK discography
- ... that The Voice UK has had six top 40, eleven top 75, fourteen top 100 and twenty-four top 200 hit singles on the UK Singles Chart and two top fifty albums on the UK Albums Chart, including one top ten placing on each chart?

Minor typo (fourty->forty), and perhaps a little complex? Such alliteration, and the movement from five, forty, ten, seventy, two, fifty, one, then ten. It gets a little confusing. Perhaps only one or two of these stats. Also, top ten of what? UK charts? US charts? S.G.(GH) ping! 14:48, 3 July 2013 (UTC)
- UK Singles and Albums Charts, hence the 'typo'. I've made some amendments.--Launchballer 18:02, 3 July 2013 (UTC)
Hook is 223 characters, far too long for DYK. Please suggest a shorter ALT hook; while 200 is the absolute max, strongly recommend significantly shorter than that. BlueMoonset (talk) 02:41, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

- Hook is still too long at 202 characters after an edit (should give ALTs, not edits, when changing hooks); note that spaces do count in hook length, but not anything before the initial "that". Suggesting the following with further cuts, since the UK singles list is typically 75, not 100 (or 200), which is a more reasonable 176 characters:

Need a new reviewer to do a full review of the nomination; including hook sourcing. BlueMoonset (talk) 15:09, 22 July 2013 (UTC)
- My apologies. I did that far too quickly and I have reverted myself. On closer investigation, simply changing some of the words to numbers should get it to below 200 characters:

What I will say is as the article sources the information, albeit unconventionally, I would be inclined to disagree with its exclusion.--Launchballer 16:14, 22 July 2013 (UTC)
