The album is called "Long Way From Happy" so could someone please change this! My source [1] --L.a.m.b 18:01, 3 November 2005 (UTC)

The album has officially been titled "I'm Not Dead." My confirmation- [2]


I would like to know the source of the album cover.

[edit] Certification

For the US sales they have it listed as platinum, but it sold just over 900,000 copies which makes it a gold record. It may be near platinum, but it is officially gold.--71.235.94.254 18:10, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

I know this is necroing, but certifications are given for albums shipped, not sold. The album was officially platinum at the time of the above comment. Phoenix1304 (talk) 06:34, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Infobox

Why was the infobox changed to...... well, not an infobox? An infobox looks much better and less messy (and not as US centric as this mutant one). Anyone else support changing it back? - RedHot 16:44, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Decimals vs. Commas

Why does a specific editor (who I don't know) insist on changing the commas with decimals? As far as I've seen across Wikipedia, there are VERY few pages that use this method of "numbering"...please stop changing it (unless it's proper "wikipedia" format...which I don't think it is) Vikramsidhu 03:34, 14 July 2006 (UTC)


[edit] awards

NO such thing as SILVER award for USA and platinum for UNITED WORLD CHART



[edit] Do we need 2

Whats the point in having the world album charts and the united world chart. Why cant we just have one. I'd prefer the united world charts as that is more reliable.

[edit] Charts

Why is the majority of this page chart trajectories? Is this really necessary? —Preceding unsigned comment added by ShadowHalo (talk • contribs)

Whats wrong with having them there, why the fuck do you guys always delete shit that takes weeks to collect and. fuck i hate this place now

Yeah I totally agree with you!^^^^

I've re-removed the chart trajectory per the guideline at WP:CHARTS. —ShadowHalo 11:15, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
Why don't we just have one chart trajectory? I've added the United World Chart again because I thinks it gives an overall good vieuw of the sales worldwide. Some people think is nice to know these things. Maybe Wikipedia doens't consider it as a reliable source but on every wikipedia pages from music albums its alout to do so. For example look at Back To Basics from Christina Aguilera or at B'day from Beyoncé. [[Electric Storm89]]

Why did you delete the United World Chart trajectory again?

[edit] Explanation for major cleanup

I've just performed a major cleanup of this article again. It was riddled with problems, including blatant inaccuracies; for example, it was released by LaFace Records, not Arista. Tables are not necessary for track listings; just because information can be put in a table doesn't mean that it should. And having in the article every cover for every single from the album is completely unacceptable in relation to the fair use criteria. Please, keep things in line with the policies and guidelines.

[edit] Additional information about UK bonus track

Right now, all I know is that UK get a bonus track. What about???? Can someone add this info.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:I'm Not Dead Australian Tour Edition.jpg

Image:I'm Not Dead Australian Tour Edition.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Unsourced chart and certification information

There was a lot of unsourced chart and certification information in the article that I've just removed. Please remember to cite reliable sources for all information—verifiability is very important. Extraordinary Machine (talk) 00:34, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
