Mariah Carey - edits.
Hello, I'm Cucas1234. I noticed that you had some doubts about some of the edits I'd made to the 'Mariah Carey' page so thought I'd explain them in more detail.
(1) 'Carey is regarded as one of the most celebrated singer-songwriters in music history and is one of the best-selling music artists of all time, with sales of over 220 million records worldwide.'
- This is directly paraphrased from the cited source, which is from her profile on the Songwriter's Hall of Fame page. This is not a direct reference to her nomination, which is listed later in the paragraph. The basis for this edit was the introductory paragraph on Prince's page, which is cited from a Billboard magazine profile: 'Widely regarded as one of the greatest musicians of his generation, he was known for his flamboyant, androgynous persona and wide vocal range, which included a far-reaching falsetto and high-pitched screams.'. The aim is to signpost the information listed later, namely her chart statistics as a solo artist, songwriter and producer, as well as her awards and nominations.
(2) 'The remix reached number one on the US Digital Song Sales chart, became a top 10 hit in Australia, and was certified 'Silver' in the United Kingdom. The song was also nominated for the Song of the Summer Award at the 2022 MTV Video Music Awards, earning Carey her first nomination at the ceremony in fourteen years since "Touch My Body" in 2008.'
- This is all factual information about the song, 'Big Energy (Remix)'. It is correctly sourced and is directly relevant to the career section '2020–present: The Rarities and The Meaning of Mariah Carey'. The wording in the section is in accordance with how other paragraphs in her Wikipedia page regarding singles have been worded. Cucas1234 (talk) 14:13, 26 August 2022 (UTC)
