Best sellers have included REM's Out of Time, Phil Collins' But Seriously, and Madonna's Immaculate Collection (Business Times, 6 March 1992).

message: this is the source from Hitlisten where it shows the album attained a peak position of four. The same page explain the last symbol from each chart-album information, where it reads above the page in "IKONFORKLARING" → BEDSTE PLACERING (PEAK). I also think the information about the best-selling greatest hits album by a woman in US, UK and AUS should be reinserted, either in commercial performance or legacy, as its part of the nature/type of the album. Not fancruft, as you wouldn't certainly heard about that from other record, eg. Cheers, --Apoxyomenus (talk) 04:36, 9 September 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: You should update the citation while changing the peak, as we can't assume people to know immediately where it comes. I've re-added the Denmark #4 peak tho, thanks for noticing. As for the best-selling GH claim for those countries, I removed it from the lede simply because it's just a bit too much, since the album itself holds the worldwide record. Also the claim for the US is a out-of-date and kinda questionable since Patsy Cline's Greatest Hits is also a RIAA diamond album. We never clearly know which one sells more among women.

replies: text:  Sure, I know the responsability of WP:BURDEN. Perhaps because I thought while reviewing the online Hitlisten link, the automatic template should contain it; at the end, I'm wonder how I didn't notice it. With the latter point, I'm sure that if article follows the current "trend" of some articles in having within commercial reception sub-divisions like "North America" and "International/Overseas" this would be added along with other stats in other's eyes :p, but not objections about your argument. Finally, just to let you know I found this comment about album's cover that might be useful: "The albums's colors of blue and gold resonate with some of the colors used in traditional images of Virgin mary" in Simon and Schuster's 2006 book "The Everything Mary Book: The Life And Legacy of the Blessed Mother" by Jenny and John Schroedel. --Apoxyomenus (talk) 01:46, 10 September 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I have always preferred simple and cohesive article like Featured Article 4 (Beyoncé album) over a gigantic article where every single non-major details are mentioned. This album is without a doubt among the critically greatest releases and best-sellers of ALL time, and IMO we don't need a bloated paragraphs to reassure its "greateness", in my humble opinion. Anyway, you don't have to ask my permission to edit the article. Please help me adding that artwork commentary :)) I would rewrite when necessary, cheers!

text: Yes, I mostly agree with your point, the implementation of some data's information looks like WP:CHARTTRAJ in many cases. Done with artwork's comment. I didn't add that, as I found it minutes ago and also cuz, you're currently working on that under template "UC". Cheers. --Apoxyomenus (talk) 02:26, 10 September 2022 (UTC)

message: Shouldn't the re-release of "Holiday" and "Crazy for You" be listed under the Singles section of the article as the re-release of "Oh Father" is listed as a single from Something to Remember? MCMCTT (talk) 17:24, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: "Holiday" and "Crazy for You" were already released as singles in the UK during its original album era, while "Oh Father" wasn't a single in most countries during its original album release. Per Template:Infobox_album#Template:Singles. Bluesatellite (talk) 03:58, 8 March 2023 (UTC)

message: Interesting that a page about Madonna's first collection contains no photos of Madonna and two photos of men, one only tangentially even related to the album. I'm not good enough at editing to fix that. But we should fix that.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:8084:6A82:9B80:402:962F:863E:D392 (talk) 11:05, 23 December 2023 (UTC)
