Hi, I'll see what can be done to show a year/decade/overall rank for each track based on their average rating. Agree that accuracy would improve with better visibility and more data.

Thank.
I need to read what percentile means.
It's hard for me to remember what I probably never knew.
Therefore, just in case, I will repeat my wish again.

There are currently three types of BEA ratings for tracks (albums):
1. Top-rated of the year
2. Top-rated of the decade
3. Top-rated of all time

The introduction of member charts for tracks in the future may improve the BEA ratings for tracks.
But BEA track ratings already exist and their accuracy can be increased by links.
Links to BEA track rankings results can be placed in track topics.
As it is done in the topics for the albums in the "Accolades" sections.
This can lead to more active voting by members for tracks in albums.
This could boost the popularity of BEA track rankings.

Sorry for misunderstanding and thanks for clarifying. Accolades are not currently displayed for tracks because the rankings on BEA are derived from member charts. Tracks do not currently appear in charts, so they don't have a 'ranking'. However, it might be possible to add accolades to the track pages based on their average rating (which is a different thing on BEA). Further down each track page, it shows the top percentile which could be summarised/reproduced at the top of the page.

Okay.
Track # 1 under your link for Top-rated tracks of all time:

A Day In The Life
Song from album:
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

If you follow the link of the album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
Below the line Average Rating there will be a section:
Accolades:
Award Best album of 1967 (1st)
Award Top 10 albums of the 1960s (3rd)
Award Top 10 albums of all time (5th)

If you follow the link of the track A Day In The Life
There will be no Accolades section under the Average Rating line.

I can't find the Accolades sections for the tracks because it's in other places, or is it just not there?
If these sections do not exist now, are they planned to be created and when?

Apologies, seems to be an issue with the translation here so having problems understanding, but there's a top rated tracks page that might give you what you want?

Hi!
Sorry if this topic has already been raised.
I don’t know of any other resource where each track of each album would have a separate topic.
There is a lot of interesting supporting information on this topic.
But I can't find how to link the track to its tops. No accolades like albums.
Help me figure it out if there is such an opportunity.
If this is not possible, is it planned and when?
