List of every number one on the official dance chart?
Does anyone know where the above may be found. My guess is that it doesn't exist but I wanna try and collect them all.

There is an official UK Dance Chart published by the OCC based on 12" dance sales. Didn't you know? Since when? - as far back as possible (since its inception if possible).

I should say that polyhex has done me about a year's worth already (i.e. the most recent year). He's the man! Still need it back even further though if possible.

There are a few dance charts posted in MW which is why I was looking for clarification
What is the current number 1? maybe that would clarify

I guess you're gonna say Madonna - Get Together which is the chart published in ChartsPlus That is correct. The other dance charts listed in Music Week are based on other factors (like DJ returns)

right, thats why I wanted clarification
I think I can get you back to 2003, If I check MW and its printed I can go back as far as 1991 (if it was going then)

wow MK that would be cool. We need to get this info available to everyone on the net. Do you have a personal website? It needs to be made available and your research creditted to you as the (semi)author.

haha cool. There is a page on wikipedia for the US dance number 1s - maybe we could start up something similar for the UK ones.

Please feel free elliot, as long as you credit music week, chartsplus, manick and haven I got the 2006 ones from polyhex and stuck them up on wikipedia. I'm afraid that, if I were to do the whole thing, you aren't allowed to credit all those people you mentioned - it'll get removed by the admin at wikipedia as they class it as spam.

I have started doing pages for each year on wikipedia. Done 2006 and 2005 sort of but things need tidying up, categories need to be added, sources need to be given etc. so that it looks as tight as the US version of the dance charts on wikipedia. This information is currently not available anywhere on the net and so it'd be excellent for dance fans to get this up and in a good state so that we can all share this important information. Would people care to partake in helping me with this project with the tidying up etc.? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number-one_dance_hits_of_2006_(UK)en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number-one_dance_hits_of_2005_(UK)
