Hi, I'm Lee and I'm new here.
I'm not sure if this is eligible, because he didn't actually post it properly on a website, in a book or such, but rather in the forums of ilxor as a reply to a thread about Ned's 136 best of the 90s.
In the thread he says he stopped writing for Pitchfork when they were redoing their 100 Best Albums of the 90s list in 2003, which was a composite of all the individual lists written by the writers, and those individual lists were later listed at the end iirc. As he had stopped writing for Pitchfork, his list went unused so he put it in ilxor instead.

Lists by single critics or musicians, published in magazines or on websites, have lower priority. The amount of such lists would be impossible to handle.
(However, priority is given to single author lists from books, very famous music critics and artists with albums or songs ranked on Acclaimed Music. Single author lists are also more likely to get priority if they are not limited to a genre or artist.)
