Madonna albums discography

Notified: Legolas2186, WikiProject Discograpies, WikiProject Madonna

This 2009 FL has several references to offline magazine articles that may have been fabricated. A thread on WT:FLC brought up issues concerning this editor, leading me to do some searching on ProQuest. A full tally of what I found is available at User talk:Legolas2186/Fixing citation problems. To make a long story short, I found three extremely questionable cites (refs 53, 121, and 146), and User:Binksternet discovered a fourth (ref 110). Either these refs must be found to exist, replacements must be found for them, or this needs to be delisted. Giants2008 (Talk) 02:38, 11 March 2012 (UTC)

Certainly, the bad cites and any dependent text must be removed, if the text cannot be supported by other sources. I think that's the first step. Binksternet (talk) 03:51, 11 March 2012 (UTC)

Okay, I removed the four bad "sources" from the article and replaced them with fact tags. The article should be examined for proper use of legitimate sources. Binksternet (talk) 08:38, 11 March 2012 (UTC)

• Image review: The one image used appears to be free and properly tagged. Goodraise 17:20, 27 March 2012 (UTC)

Comment not seeing any maintenance tags now, but a few content issues (5 million -> five million, bare Url for ref 68 etc), but otherwise no major trauma here for me. The Rambling Man (talk) 17:55, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
