Hold fire with the cover.
Sainsburys has a this as a deluxe cover whereas Play.com has this and Leona's competition to design the album artwork is still on going. — Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 17:09, 9 September 2012 (UTC)
- Also I believe "Collide" was left in because Leona said during UStream it would be a deluxe edition bonus track. — Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 17:10, 9 September 2012 (UTC)
- Regardless, there is going to be some sort of deluxe cover. For "Collide" being a bonus, I was just going by what the source beside it said. I was not aware of that. Zac 17:12, 9 September 2012 (UTC)
- Ah that's ok. I assumed you were going to upload the cover and i was like NOOOOOOO! haha. Erm yes, i'm not sure what to do about that. I've got a YouTube link to the uStream, i think i'll add that just until we get the track listing. I don't wanna remove the Collide information and then have to add it all back that's all. — Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 17:20, 9 September 2012 (UTC)
- Haha, no, I wasn't. Just re-adding the note. I noticed a user kept removing it before, since there was "no confirmation" of a deluxe cover. Zac 17:21, 9 September 2012 (UTC)

- I was gonna leave "Shake You Up" out, simply cause that's original research. We know she worked with Darkchild but we don't know that "Shake You Up" is the single they produced, or that he's even made the track listing. — Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 00:40, 10 September 2012 (UTC)
taylor swift discography confusing
template says one thing discography says another shouldnt both say the same and as far as i see the template is the correct one not the discography page so i put it back to what the template page says — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.102.31.108 (talk) 16:27, 10 September 2012 (UTC)
- There; the template is fixed now. Thanks for letting me know. Zac 21:09, 10 September 2012 (UTC)
Questionable
Can I ask what gives you the impression this is a reliable source for sales? It looks pretty questionable, but I'm not too familiar with it. Care to shed some light?--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 01:56, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
- It appears to be a reputable website. Just found that it is copied from a press release, so reverting myself. Zac 02:00, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
- Found a good source for 7 million for On the 6 :)--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 02:15, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
- OMG, thank you so much! I'm finding it so hard to find worldwide numbers for her albums. Zac 02:17, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
- Sure thing! Found another for J.Lo for 7 million :D--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 02:18, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks, again! I've updated the discography with them. Sorry it took so long to reply, reconstructed how the notes are done so I won't have to go and change the letters and shit when a new note is added. If you can find anymore, feel free to share. ;) Zac 02:43, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
- Sure thing! Found another for J.Lo for 7 million :D--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 02:18, 11 September 2012 (UTC)

Hehe no prob :) Glad I could help! Actually, I found an up-to-date source for J.Lo listing 10 million.--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 02:48, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
- I saw that earlier, but I wasn't so sure if it's good to use as a source or not. Zac 02:55, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
- I don't see why not. Its used for professional reviews all the time in GA level articles. Also, About.com is published by the The New York Times Company so I would definitely support its reliability.--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 02:57, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
- Reviews are a different thing. They could have got that number from wherever; I see a lot of that number floating around, but I can't seem to hunt down where it originated from. It could have just been a number that spread around and is deemed as true, you know what I mean? Also, knowing as of when it sold that many copies is important. Zac 02:59, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
- Okay, its your call!--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 03:06, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
- I've got a question for ya, do you think it's worthy of a note on J.Lo's main article that she has sued her ex-driver for threatening to release "disruptive and potentially damaging" information about her unless she paid him $2.8 million? Zac 03:07, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
- Well, I'm not too familiar with her, so I don't know how publicized (if at all) this was. I think it can go either way. It can be over-looked or you can add a few lines in the appropriate section. As an example, Carey's at-the-time step-father sued her in the first years of her career. Its in her bio books, but we decided to not include it.--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 03:31, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
- I just decided not to include it. If it turns out to be some big public thing, then it's worth a mention, but right now, it's just a filed case. It may not go anywhere. Thanks. Zac 03:34, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
