21 has sold 31 million copies?[edit]

21 hasn't sold 31 million copies worldwide. 21 has sold 30 million worldwide. There is no source for 31 million copies... Please fix it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Navyiconer (talk • contribs) 21:02, 9 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Source is already cited, if you are not blind check the adjacent Rolling stone cite. It's as if her last album, 2011's 21, hadn't sold a miraculous 31 million copies worldwide in an era when no one buys music... —Indian:BIO ^{[ ChitChat ]} 21:09, 9 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Adele discography[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Adele discography's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "BPI":

From The Raconteurs: "BPI Searchable Database". British Phonographic Industry. Retrieved June 8, 2011.
From Someone like You (Adele song): "Certified Awards Search". British Phonographic Industry. Retrieved 31 March 2011.
From British Phonographic Industry: Gallup (4 February 1989). "The Top of the Pops Chart" (PDF). Record Mirror: 4. Retrieved 16 July 2010.
From List of music recording certifications: "The BPI". British Phonographic Industry. Retrieved 2013-11-19.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 05:45, 9 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

30 RIAA Certification[edit]

What happened to Adele's RIAA certifications for 30? Last I saw it received 3 Platinum certifications and now I can't find any explanation for why it was pulled, from the RIAA website or anywhere else. 2605:8D80:681:9A69:274D:8C68:CFC6:409F (talk) 19:03, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
