Chart sources

I see that the charts aren't sourced but remeber seeing them on a site called MoCaW: Madonna on Charts around the World when it was released. All the charts from American Life and R&R were on there, much like what is being done for COADF, but they are no longer online. Underneath-it-All 22:03, 26 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

WW album sales

I heard the sales for these were at 100,000 or 200,000 but somebody said 1 million. Can someone help?

Live performances

Aside from the 2003 VMAs, didn't she also perform "Into The Hollywood Groove" on the Re-invention Tour? I remember seeing Missy Elliott on screen. --79.112.50.60 (talk) 14:35, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Compilation

This is not a compilation, is an EP, the 25 minutes only aply in the United Kingdom, and it didn't even chart there. Plus 2 sources Allmusic and Billboard describe it as an EP. Having this as a compilation is innacurate and there is no source for this definition, this is like original research. 190.234.253.52 (talk) 05:40, 1 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Its not Billboard rule that we are discussing here. Billboard doesnot have any cut off btween EP and LP. The only rule available in this case is from OCC, which celarly states any recording release beyond 25 minutes is considered an LP. I admit that Billboard and Allmusic are extremely reliable sources, however in case of failure to assume a rule, what they say becomes irrelevant when an already existent rule is available. The problem doesnot arise during charting on the official charts since, except for Billboard, any version of an album is eligible to chart. Its not original research as you say, but was discussed during the GA review also, if you will care to look at it. --Legolas ^(talk2me) 06:00, 1 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

And if you will care to look for sources you will see that book references like Madonna's biography by Lucy O' Brien and even her official site list it as an EP. [1] 190.234.253.52 (talk) 06:44, 1 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Its the same case like music genres supported by primary sources. Its the secondary sources which matter. --Legolas ^(talk2me) 07:56, 1 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This is totally different, things like track listings or the fact that they are a single and album or an EP don't need explicit references since they're inherently referenced to the single itself. And there are plenty of Ep that are longer than 25 minutes, Jar of Flies is over 30 minutes, that only aply in the UK, and well she is not a British artist. Even more i have the cd and the label have the following: EP Features Rock and Retro Remixes from American Life plus the MTV Live Performance of "Like a Virgin"/"Hollywood Medley" featuring Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears & Missy Elliot.... There is absolutely no reference that said that Remixed & Revisited is a compilation, everywhere have it as an EP so i consider that original research. The wikipedia page of the article said that an EP has up to 36 minutes and have a reference next to it The Great Rock Discography so why isn't that considered here. 190.234.253.52 (talk) 08:20, 1 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry for bringing this up again, but this IP user is correct. This should be listed as an EP. The release is quite similar to that of Hitmixes by Lady Gaga. ℥^nding·start 02:40, 16 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that it is an EP as stated above and it does actually mention this on the actual disc as an "EP". It should be reverted back to such status. JWAD ^{Communicate|Nicely} 11:49, 26 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

THIS IS NOT AN ALBUM

This is an EP.

It misse lots of chart information because on the majority of countries it charted as a single, not as an album.
