Hi This Is User:ShinemyGrillz And I created this Discography article a few weeks ago. Lately there have been some Sales "Inflates" and I'd like to take the time to address that.

Orphaned references in Lil' Kim discography

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 Lil' Kim 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.

Naked Truth sales

Are you sure the sales haven't increased? It's been at 300 K for years now and also Lighters Up is a certified Gold.

Videography

There are a few videos missing from Lil Kim's videography like Stomp (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRWtf6M-rWE) and No More Games (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=edeF-Lr5xl8)

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 ⚡ 08:37, 23 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

New Single

She has a new single out called 'I Am Not the One'. Please add the article about this and all that jazz. Thanks! :) Marexl (talk) 19:00, 24 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Australian Chart Peaks

Ok, so i've made several modifications to this article, such as the addition of AUS columns in the Singles section. The australian-charts website only archives the Top 50 out of the Top 100 due to copyright issues, so the only source for the Top 100 is the Pandora ARIA Archives. If u find any new Australian charts info on Lil' Kim, particularly with her albums, please update this article with a reference! =) --Meluvseveryone (talk) 08:34, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

RIAA source

@Azealia911, RIAA does not have direct links, so you have to search the database. Did you do that? Melonkelon (talk) 20:50, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Melonkelon Direct links like this you mean? In which case... yes they certainly do.

http://www.riaa.com/goldandplatinumdata.php?artist=%22Justin+Bieber%22

http://www.riaa.com/goldandplatinumdata.php?artist=%22Minaj%2C+Nicki%22

http://www.riaa.com/goldandplatinumdata.php?artist=%22Rihanna%22

Wikipedia is not a wild goose chase operation, all of the links on Kim's album certifications linked to a blank, front page, link to her artist page like the above links. Azealia911 (talk) 21:00, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I stand corrected. I had searched the albums before and there were no direct links to either the album or artist in the search results. I'm able to search "Lil' Kim" and all her certifications appear, but I'm unable to get a link for that, maybe because of the apostrophe in her name. Are you doubting the certifications? You can't find the certifications by searching the album names? They are there, you just need to search. Melonkelon (talk) 21:06, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Oh no I don't doubt the certifications, but others may so it's useful to have a quick easy ref, I'll see what I can do about a direct link! Thanks, Azealia911 (talk) 21:08, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Did you find the certifications? It'd be nice if the ref was restored. Melonkelon (talk) 20:37, 2 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I've restored the ref. I've used those links you've provided and found that you can replace the artist name with the album name. See http://www.riaa.com/goldandplatinumdata.php?artist=%22Hard+Core%22 as an example. Melonkelon (talk) 04:27, 3 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Conspiracy

I have no idea why "Conspiracy" is listed here. Its own article tells Conspiracy is the debut album of hip hop group Junior M.A.F.I.A.., and nothing there would suggest it was her solo album. Also, it is listed in 'Compilation albums', while Junior M.A.F.I.A. discography has it in 'Studio albums'. With what logic is a Junior M.A.F.I.A. studio album a Lil' Kim compilation? 85.217.20.110 (talk) 00:57, 25 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
