According to latina.com, this album sold 22 million copies world-wide. While the certifications don't allow it to be listed on the List of best-selling albums page, the figure should still be allowed to be stated on this page since the sales figure is from a reliable source.
RIAA's 7x Platinum certification of the ablum was made in 2000. RIAA doesn't automatically update certifications. The record label has to pay for RIAA to investigate the data to increase the certification.

The only reliable source to worldwide sales is IFPI. What we can do here is to include the most accurate sales according to certifications and peak positions. Do you really think this album sold 22 million copies with only 11 million copies certified? This is a inflated number created here in Wikipedia and widespread by the media. If Ricky Martin sold 11 million copies in the most important market there's no way it sold 11 million plus in countries where you get a certification for 10,000 copies sold.--88marcus (talk) 18:50, 11 June 2019 (UTC)
So 2 million Europe sales, 7 million US sales, 1 million Canada sales and 1 million Japan sales are "certified" almost 20 years ago! It means 11 millions. The other certified such as Mexico, South Korea, Brazil & etc. would make almost another million too. So it has about 12 million certified units, not 11.
And these datas are for 20 years ago. It is a famous album and the sales data hadn't been updated for 20 years. Actually you can visit the article list of best-selling albums and see the other songs' certified units. For example (What's the Story) Morning Glory? has certified 4 million US, 6 million Europe, 800,000 Canada & 560,000 Australia. It makes 11,3 million. The others are not notable, but we can say almost 12 million certified sales. This album's claimed sales are 22 million too. It was just an example. So is the problem just with Ricky Martin? If not, so most of other datas are wrong too. But they aren't!. Cause it's easy. The certifications are just incomplete and not updated for decades. And 12 million certified units which are from 20 years ago are enough for 22 million claimed sales... I hope you understand that ♡ آرمین هویدایی (talk) 06:30, 12 June 2019 (UTC)

It was certified 7x platinum in USA in 2000, after that the album was out of the charts, it didn't even sold 7 million copies, it shipped 7 millions an according to Nielsen Soundscan and it has around 5.8 million by the end of 2000. "And these datas are for 20 years ago.": Yes and the album was out of the charts after that, and out of catalog in many countries too. It seems that for you an album still sold millions after its promotion, but is not that way. Even his following albums didn't performed well like that. Why do you want to keep inflated sales in every other album here in Wikipedia? Do you think an article needs that? Nobody that is doing search about Oasis will consider that number if they look carefully its certifications and chart performance. Do you think we have to keep Martin sales because many others articles are nonsense too?--88marcus (talk) 16:22, 12 June 2019 (UTC)

"encouraged Columbia Records decide" → "encouraged Columbia Records to decide"
On "Spanish Eyes" → In "Spanish Eyes"
Add a serial comma between "sultriness, tango and dance".
Wikilink descargas for the readers who do not understand.
I'm sorry but it was already wikilinked in its first usage. (In the sentence of "In "Spanish Eyes", Martin refers..." آرمین هویدایی (talk) 00:13, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
"Czech Republic" → "the Czech Republic"
"A same track list" – rephrase
"in addition the" → "in addition to the"
Add a comma after "autographed Ricky Martin CDs".
Is it "Livin' La Vida Loca" (as in the lead) or "Livin' la Vida Loca"?
It's "Livin' la Vida Loca", sorry for my mistake. آرمین هویدایی (talk) 00:27, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
"They acclaimed" – rephrase
"with additional" → "with an additional"
"emphasizing on the fact" → "emphasizing the fact"
Vulture.com should be formatted as Vulture.
