list of best-selling music artists

Please refrain from adding R. Kelly to the List of best-selling music artists with incorrect certified sales and a source that uses 100 million sales. Please be informed that all artists on the List of best-selling music artists are required to have certain amount of certified sales based on the year they have begun charting. The details of that information, you can find at Talk:List of best-selling music artists, see the second yellow box from the top. Also, we do not use those claimed figures which are unrealistically high from artists' available certified sales. That is stated in the lead of List of best-selling music artists, see the last few sentences there. That said, R. Kelly's available certified sales are only 53.6 million units, that is far away from the 100 million units as stated in your source which you recently used. R. Kelly can and should only be added to the List of best-selling music artists with sources claiming 75-80 million records. --Harout72 (talk) 14:23, 13 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Are you using two different accounts?

I see that your edits are almost exactly the same as the edits made by Funnycelebritymoments. If you are using a different account now to make it seem as if you are a different person, let me tall you that you are violating Wikipedia:Sock puppetry. That is a serious violation and I suggest that you stop using multiple accounts.--Harout72 (talk) 14:31, 13 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

WTF is this?!... Harout72

"between 1990–2000 are required to have their available claimed figures supported by 40-60% in certified units. (That is 2% for each additional year after 1990)"

... that's what it said on that "talk" page.

R. Kelly was at his biggest in the 90's and 55 million certified units is 55 % of 100 million. (40-60)! 90's.

by the way R. Kelly certified sales are not 53,6... it's 54,6. R. Kelly's collaboration album with Public Announcement went platinum. 1+

Hi There. Please note that images found on websites are not public domain but are instead copyrighted, usually all-rights-reserved. Wikipedia does not host copyrighted images of living people - Peripitus (Talk) 21:34, 14 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello

Hi, Peripitus

I need your help with uploading picture of a living person to Wikipedia with out it being deleted. Could i upload the same picture again with different settings or something.... R. Kelly only has one picture on his site and same picture on all of his other pages, while others have plenty of pictures just lying everywere. I really appreciat if you could tell me what i should do to change that. - WikiFact123 (Talk) 21:34, 14 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately not. As he is alive Wikipedia can only accept freely licenced images. The only way to get these is for someone to take a photo and release it under a free licence (like the creative commons one you see at the bottom of this page). I can't see any other freely licenced images but there are probably some. You could ask one of the users of flickr who has uploaded an image (like this one) if they will change the licence to a free one that allows commercial use and derivatives. Just note that many of the images on flickr are not owned by the people uploading them but are taken from other sites - Peripitus (Talk) 00:48, 15 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
