I would like to exclude greatest hits albums so you wouldn't be allowed to vote for Madonna's "Immaculate Collection" nor any others like The Beautiful South's "Carry On Up The Charts" etc.
Also excluded should be various artists albums which were allowed in the main chart prior to 1989. Some albums that have multiple artists but are linked to being a film soundtrack or musical with new material might be excepted from that rule. (Grease for example)

Greatest hits will be allowed in the list, it is up to you if you choose to exclude them, various artist albums have been removed as noone will remember what is in Now 16 or Hits 22, soundtracks are being featured as well.

I will probably include Greatest Hits albums to make up the numbers. Will we be allowed to vote for fewer than 75 if we can't find enough albums to make up the list?

Would you rather it was 50 EP?

I'll do this as I'm far more interested in albums than singles.75 seems a lot to me,prefer 50 tbh.

I would prefer it to be 50. But these figures should preferably be a maximum, not an exact number. Although it would be preferable for people to enter the full quota, it is better for someone who hasn't heard enough of the number one albums to enter a lower amount than to just fill the spaces with albums they think they might like (eg they liked the bands singles so assume they might like the album even though they never bought it or listened to it).

Looks like we'll go with 50 then, when I set this going, cheers everyone.

I'm in favour of you throwing out the Now albums, but you have to include origional soundtacks of new material such as Grease & Saturday Night Fever.

Why exclude any albums? Haveners have the choice whether to vote for them or not.
And on second thoughts why limit it to 50? Anyone who doesn't want to go further could stop there.

That's the choices that have been made.
