[edit] Updated postmortem music sales
A lot of the information under "Record Sales" is already outdated. "Jackson's record sales increased dramatically in the hours following his death. His album Thriller climbed to number one on the American iTunes music chart, and another eight made it into the top 40.[26] In the UK, where he would have performed in less than three weeks, his albums occupied 14 of the top 20 places on the Amazon.co.uk sales chart, with Off The Wall topping the chart."
This article has information a bit more recent, http://www.billboard.biz/bbbiz/content_display/industry/e3i344418db676344f0d77ca668d6cc4a43
But I think things are going to keep changing over the next week or so. I'm not complaining about this or anything, but just saying that whoever is interested in editing the article should be on the look out for these new figures. They seem amazingly noteworthy.
[edit] Record sales
9 Michael's albums are on first 9 positions. Someone could wrote bout it cause there's only information they're in top 40.
[edit] Should we say it was really 1 billion people worldwide watching?
According to the "main" Michael Jackson page, the worldwide audience of 1 billion people didn't seem to be represented as a very accurate/reliable estimation.
What I mean is that the main page says that the audience may have been 1 billion, maybe not.
Can we sort of elaborate on this to be sure of it?
Thanks.
[edit] Discovery cancels Michael Jackson autopsy TV show
This is in the news today, perhaps it should go in the article.--♦IanMacM♦ (talk to me) 10:08, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
[edit] Redirect
This value is a redirect of this value http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Conrad_Murray&diff=357475270&oldid=50152755
Conrad (born 14th December 1977, Ashton-under-Lyne, England) is an award-winning radio presenter and actor
- redirect Death of Michael Jackson
Murray gained plaudits and honours for his radio work for BBC GMR and Century FM before he shot to fame as result of his starring role in 24 Hour Pary People. Renowned for his essays on Man United and music - many of which appear in award winning fanzine United We Stand, it is reputed that, as a sociable six year old, Murray introduced Morrissey to Marr and The Smiths were formed soon after.
This false redirection is a criminal offense. please change the redirection - you are offending an innocent man which is not 'dr.murray'.

The value "conrad_murray" points to a british actor! http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Conrad_Murray&diff=357475270&oldid=50152755
The value "conrad_murray" refers to a false identity. "Conrad (born 14th December 1977, Ashton-under-Lyne, England) is an award-winning radio presenter and actor." --Karinsa (talk) 18:09, 3 June 2011 (UTC)
- That was an old version. Conrad Murray now redirects to this article. Conrad Murray the actor does not appear to be notable enough for an article. – ukexpat (talk) 18:15, 3 June 2011 (UTC)

- It now redirects to Trial of Conrad Murray. 89.194.66.102 (talk) 10:19, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
[edit] His 4th rather 1st child
His eldest son is not mentioned, the one thats about 20 from a european mother. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Biebersbro (talk • contribs) 12:30, 5 July 2011 (UTC)
- There's no evidence that young man was fathered by Jackson. 89.194.66.102 (talk) 10:19, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
[edit] Motive? Non-standard CPR
Murray must have had some motive for not moving Jackson to the floor. any idea what it was? CorvetteZ51 (talk) 09:49, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
- I think I read a statement from his attonery saying that Murray was concerned he might injur Jackson if he did CPR on the floor, because Murray's body is so much larger than Jackson's. With the trial in progress and the potential for this article to change significantly due to the trial, I don't feel like tracking down a source at the moment. -- JTSchreiber (talk) 04:34, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
