Charity record →Benefit album – Far more common name (try a search engine). "Benefit" more easily and accurately describes the concept of raising money to give to a charity. Compare tobenefit concert. "Record" is an outmoded way of describing an album.relisted --Mike Cline (talk) 09:53, 19 May 2012 (UTC) ▫JohnnyMrNinja19:18, 11 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Raoul Haspel released a single in 2015, I'm not sure about the charity as my source just says a local charity.https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/music/features/protest-artist-raoul-haspel-on-getting-one-minute-of-silence-to-top-the-charts-in-austria-i-had-to-10469203.htmlDanTheMusicMan2 (talk)14:18, 10 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The list of allegedly "notable" charity singles needs to be trimmed, beginning with deciding what constitutes "notability" in this context. Of the last 10 entries on the list at the time of writing, 6 apparently did not chart at all, and 3 of those are by redlinked acts, which makes it hard to justify describing them as "notable". Clearly the list has just become a dumping ground for any charity single of which an editor happens to be aware. I propose that it be restricted to only those singles which entered the top 10 in at least one country --ChrisTheDude (talk)15:19, 20 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
