Talk:Aaliyah discography

One In A Millio Sales:
The user eo said that i cited falses references but, I mentioned the source, I did everything right, it's a slide show of the Univision, the picture 10 says  One In A Million sold 3.7 million. the text is on the right side of the page.

He also said that Wikpedia does not accept texts in Spanish.

There is no rule against it, and Wikipedia sources can accept any language. As an example, references on the Oricon, in Japanese. There is no problem of walking a few pictures.

 * Oricon is a Japanese corporation that specifically monitors and tallies the sales of music product in the Japanese market. Citations in music articles that utilize Oricon as a source do so in order to prove statistics for Japan, e.g. editors are not using Japanese-language Oricon links to prove the sales totals in the United States for an English-language Ameican music artist.  Univision is not a music industry authority on chart statistics or record sales and certifications; it is a Spanish-language television network.  And forcing the average reader to comb through pages and pages of an Aaliyah photo gallery to locate a sales claim in Spanish is a problem. - eo (talk) 19:04, 18 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Hmm, you know what confuses me? The fact that the album supposedly sold 3.7 million copies in the United States, but has only been certified double platinum. I find it extremely unlikely that RIAA would skip over the certification. Anywho, I don't know what to do about the whole slide show thing. Maybe try to find another reference with better access to the sales figure? As far as the language goes, English is preferred, but sources in other languages can be used when English ones don't exist. — ξ xplicit  19:07, 18 September 2010 (UTC)

Ok, buy Why would I be blocked?ΛΛLIYΛH (talk) 20:41, 18 September 2010 (UTC)
 * AGREED with eo. An on-line reference (in any language) needs to be to a specific url that displays the material, or at most a click or two away, but 10 pages later is quite excessive.—Iknow23 (talk) 23:43, 18 September 2010 (UTC)

Duplication
Suggest changing "Guest appearances" to "Other guest appearances" or something similar and deleting the following tracks from the table; they are noted elsewhere.


 * Final Warning -- 1999 -- Ginuwine -- 100% Ginuwine
 * You Won't See Me Tonight -- 1999 -- Nas -- I Am ...

"Aaliyah discography" vs. "Aaliyah (Album)" discrepancy.
The discography claims the album "Aaliyah" was released on 17 July.

The article for the album itself claims it was released on 7 July.

Why the discrepancy?

Which is correct? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.49.91.26 (talk) 07:57, 18 December 2018 (UTC)
