[edit] Album Sales

Sales of Fijación Oral Vol. 1 and Oral Fixation Vol. 2 are 3 million and 4 million respectively. Stop changing them to the HUGELY inflated sales of 7 and 8 million unless you can provide a source. --Bojach 07:51, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sales

Just because Oral Fixation Volume 2 has been certified platinum does not mean that it has sold one million copies. A platinum certification is awarded for copies shipped not sold. 67.169.112.182 23:34, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

Why is the number of sales nearly the same since 8 weeks when Oral Fixation re-entered the top10 ???

There's no source or site that would update the number of album sales--hottie 18:08, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

Fijación Oral podeis comprobar que ha vendido mas de 7 millones de copias en la segunda referencia que proviene de UN PERIODICO. Oral Fixation ha superado las 8 millones de copias, podeis verlo en mediatraffic e incluso, HIPS DONT LIE es un hit, no un hit normal, ¡el segundo mas exitoso de la historia! en algo se tendria que reflejar el exito del single, ademas illegal y dont brother han tenido un exito al igual pero mucho mas moderado.

this sales are inflated..maybe sold 7m and 8m with single sales included but only as album sold a lot less. should be around 4-5m. all chart experts could confirm it.

[edit] Accuracy

Pretty sure a lot of these chart positions are just plain wrong. Also, not seeing much sourcing for the sales figures, though those seem more reasonable. GassyGuy 10:43, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

Actually the chart information for all singles and albums in America is correct i double checked all of them. Except for when someone posts that No went to number 99. Don't know about the other countries though. And the sales are so off changing them back... again.

The chart positions still need a link to wherever you found them. ShadowHalo 05:06, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Format

Would it be appropriate to format the page with {{Infobox Discography}} and {{Infobox Singles discography}}? ShadowHalo 05:06, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Her first two studio albums?

Shouldn't Magia and Peligro be represented here? Even if there isn't any data on them? Aqualize 10:22, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Live albums?

Why have the live albums been removed? Aren't those a part of the discography?

We can't put "Live in Miami" as a part of Shakira's discography because it isn't publiqued at the moment. In adition, I have heard that the next live album won't have only a concert, it will be a resume of the best moments in her Oral Fixation World Tour. There will have two kinds of dvd models: -The first, is a dvd -The second, is a hd (The last video format). So it does that Shakira is one of the first musicians that does a concert in this video format. On the other hand, the dvd contains documentals, the discography, some videos... etc. However, we don't know what things the dvd contains. In her official web site, the fans can make her opinions about what they want to watch in her new dvd. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.98.243.212 (talk) 09:27, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Singles and Remixed

I noticed in the list of singles is missing a single from 1995, "Un Poco de Amor", the third single extracted from "Pies Descalzos" album. Actually there was the third single in South America, but in North America (Mexico) the third single was "Pies Descalzos Sueños Blancos". Both thirds singles had Videoclip directed by Gustavo Garzon and remixes by Meme. "Un Poco de Amor" had lately a Portuguese version included in The Remixes compilation album.

About the discography, is missing the last compilation "Remixed" (not the Remixes compilatio with remixes of Pies Descalzos album). Mauchileno 18:11, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Flags need to be removed

Decorative flag icons cannot be used here per WP:FLAGS - they especially should not be used in place of text in the column headers. These need to be removed. - eo (talk) 10:37, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
