[edit] Warning!! PLEASE READ
you cant just come in to this page and write what you feel is correct, make sure you have proof to your conclusions, for example to that person that wrote cher sells more the 250 million albums thats very innapropriate as you dont have proof or any citations to this, also how sure are you on the shoop shoop song sales, why have you doubled them? i need evidence and asap or your info will be removed, and ill have to report to an administrator Rsf7589 05:55, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
- This whole page is unreferenced. It quotes figures as being factual without any reference. They much have come from somewhere? If someone can quote the references and validate the data, please do so. Otherwise it is meaningless numbers Maggott2000 23:41, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Videography
I don't think the videography should be merged back into the Cher discography page. For one the Cher discography page is too big in size. 2) The videography has been rearanged and reedited with more specific details. Rsf7589 22:21, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
- I suppose it is long, but it just seems like the videography is essentially creating another article about very similar subject, even though one deals with physical singles and the other deals with videos. Perhaps instead of splitting off the Videography, the Sonny and Cher discography could be split? That seems a more reasonable separation. If not, I suppose there's nothing inherently wrong with the videography being separate. GassyGuy 22:53, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Videography
i guess i have no problem making a sonny and cher discography but the videography does indeed look good on its own, but either way no problem with me for any changes Rsf7589 03:12, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Sales figures
There is no evidence for any of these sales. As such I (or anyone) can amend any of these figures, and the detail cannot be disputed as any new figure is as dubious as the old figure. Having said that, there is alreasy a disclaimer that these are 'estimates', therefore an estimate is based on the probability of the sale being made. In most cases, as Cher was mainly an American artist selling well in her native America (excluding 'Believe'), then record accreditations given for sales by RIAA would be the most appropriate estimate. Even allowing for 100% markup for rest of world does not get you even close to the figures quoted (up to 1000% markup on US sales = impossible. that is not pov, or assumption, that is fact). Therefore either all sales NOT referenced should be removed, or anyone who can give credible information as to why data is better suited that current data is entitled to correct. 60.234.242.196 02:10, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
- Here is one example. This page says 'Heart of Stone' sold 10.8m. It was certified RIAA 3 X Platinum. Link says 4.5m less than HALF mentioned. 60.234.242.196 02:43, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
- 'Living Proof' went gold (500,000 copies) in the US. This discography says sold 6.4m. Only link I can find says sold 700,000 in US (believeable) and 3m worldwide (believeable). —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 60.234.242.196 (talk) 09:56, 15 February 2007 (UTC).
Singles sales are equally fictional. Refer [1] which has 'Strong Enough' at 3.72m 'points'. Of which 49% is sales, making the figure to be approx. 1.85m yet here it is 4.2 million. Removing. 59.124.99.83 15:25, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
