Not done; When comes to digital sales of singles, a certification denotes a number of sales. — Robin (talk) 22:47, 13 February 2013 (UTC)

- Weekly charts

Done — Robin (talk) 22:47, 13 February 2013 (UTC)

Publishers are needed to meet FA not GA; so I'm not adding them. — Robin (talk) 22:47, 13 February 2013 (UTC)
- No, you can get away without having a work parameter if it is unknown, but not for publishers. All references, regardless of what it is for, need a publisher. — AARON • TALK 22:50, 13 February 2013 (UTC)
- Status
On hold for 7 days. Please pay attention to your reference formatting in the future. — AARON • TALK 17:28, 13 February 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks for reviewing, Aaron! — Robin (talk) 22:47, 13 February 2013 (UTC)
- OMFG!!!!!! I thought I had already saved the adjustments to the article before responding to your posts; I closed the tab without saving all the adjustments, thinking it was an old version of article I had left open. I'll be back 2morrow............ — Robin (talk) 23:00, 13 February 2013 (UTC)
I've done everything you want, I guess. — Robin (talk) 14:09, 16 February 2013 (UTC)
- You haven't changed sales to shipments. All US certifications are according to shipments only. — AARON • TALK 16:11, 16 February 2013 (UTC)
- But the way I have written it now doesn't indicate that the RIAA denotes its sales or shipments. — Robin (talk) 16:21, 16 February 2013 (UTC)
- But that's not the point. It's incorrect. — AARON • TALK 16:22, 16 February 2013 (UTC)
- Done — Robin (talk) 16:27, 16 February 2013 (UTC)
- Actually Australia is also shipments. New Zealand is okay though, they base certifications on sales. This is a handy page to know. — AARON • TALK 16:32, 16 February 2013 (UTC)
- Did the Aussie cert as well. — Robin (talk) 16:36, 16 February 2013 (UTC)
- Passing. — AARON • TALK 16:37, 16 February 2013 (UTC)
