Gran City Pop

[edit]

Is there an official source for the translation? Because the mix of languages makes it ambiguous. If it's English and Spanish words, using English grammar (i.e. adjective order) then it is "Great City Pop" as it is currently. But if the title is to be read with Spanish grammar (which despite being a native English speaker, I think seems more natural) then it would be "Great Pop City", which seems to conform more to the idea conveyed in the "Album information" section at the start. The imagery of a city on the cover also suggests the noun is "City" in the title, not "Pop". - EstoyAquí(tce) 14:37, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Astonish gap of sales reported

[edit]

I don't wanna start an edit war with the user that made the sales change or get involved in a discussion. But it brought my attention the incredible jump from 300,000 to 1 million copies. With only 180,000 sales available that's a gap of more than 800,000 units. Honestly, seems this is not the case of many Latin albums of early 2000s or mid/late 90s which seems fine that gap or even 1 million and something (ofc, context also matters). By the way, I know the 300,000 units reported in the article press was about one month later it release but as a Spanish-album of late 2000s a gap of figures as high as 300-500K copies not seems bad if we made comparison with available sales, but more than that looks pretty high like we have here in the current version fo this article.

@Apoxyomenus: I agree with you and this link has been reversed previously. 1 million would be an ideal number to include in Ananda or Pau-Latina, but never for Gran City Pop, in 2009 sales were already too low for all artists, this affected Paulina too. To say that the disc sold 5 times more than the information we have about it, is really inflated, I will remove it immediately.--88marcus (talk) 03:05, 29 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@88marcus: That's also applies to the Paulina Rubio discography, the 1 million mark needs to be reversed/changed again. While sales for Pau-Latina could be as high as 750,000 units e,g the 1 million for that album seems a big gap also with the available sales. Ananda could be easily have 1 million since have available 510,000 sales reported and that's not includes the download of 200,000 copies in Mexico making a total of 710,000/660,000 units.
