Dicen Que Soy

[edit]
(
)
  • ... that La India's recordings of "Ese Hombre" and "Dicen Que Soy" on her album Dicen Que Soy have been described as "anthems for female salsa lovers"?

5x expanded by Magiciandude (talk). Self nominated at 05:02, 24 March 2014 (UTC).

  • Long enough (> 5x expansion). Well written. Well sourced. Neutral, matter-of-fact tone. Hook is interesting (though I wish the songs themselves had articles). But at least the following areas need to be fixed: (1) Combinacion Perfecta of a June 1993 concert was released in 1996, not 1993; (2) It became a Top Ten hit, not the same as making number 10; (3) I can't find the info for "According to Nielsen SoundScan, Dicen Que Soy has sold over 144,000 copies as of 2000" in the cited source.

1) It was released in 1993 as evident by this article from Los Angeles Times (I've added it as ref). 2) Fixed 3) The sales is provided at the bottom of the article I cited. Cheers. Erick (talk) 02:14, 21 April 2014 (UTC)
Thanks for providing a citation for (1). This site [1] says 1996 but your citation (from 1994) shows 1996 is clearly wrong. You haven't fixed (2). The article says the single became a top ten hit; I'm not sure if that means peaking at number 10. As for (3), I'm looking at [2] and can't find anything about Nielsen or any sales numbers. Do you have the right citation? Hybernator (talk) 01:03, 22 April 2014 (UTC)
Oh I see now. The note pointed to the wrong footnote and I fixed it. I also addressed the peak position by including Marc Anthony's chart history since it strangely only appears there. Thank you for catching that. Erick (talk) 02:25, 22 April 2014 (UTC)
Sources check out. >5x expansion. Well written. Neutral tone. Good to go. Hybernator (talk) 23:33, 22 April 2014 (UTC)
