Pseud 14 I meant pipe to the plural for the 1960s and 1970s music articles; do this in the body too, please. --K. Peake 08:32, 9 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I see what you mean. Done (I think) Pseud 14 (talk) 13:08, 9 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Background and development

[edit]
  • "It marked her first collaboration" → "It marked Velasquez's first collaboration"
  • "with his sister Lea Salonga." → "with his sister Lea." per MOS:SAMESURNAME
Done above

Synopsis and reception

[edit]
  • "into a Henry Mancini tribute number," → "into a Mancini tribute number,"
  • "The next number saw her perform" → "The next number saw Velasquez perform"
  • "she stood next to" → "Velasquez stood next to"
  • "He highlighted how" → "Cruz highlighted how"
Done above

Broadcast and recordings

[edit]
  • Use the full name of RPN
  • Wikilink live album
  • Mention that the certification was in the Philippines and how many units it represents
I added the number of units sold and included a source for shipments of albums required to achieve platinum status. Same source can be found in her discography. As for adding Philippines, the certifying body (PARI) already mentions that, so I think it would be redundant to add it again.
