Orphaned references in Endlessly (album)[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Endlessly (album)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "guardian":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 13:14, 3 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Platinum certification[edit]

I just want to make sure this is fully discussed on the talk page. I was the one who put this phrasing in the article a while back:

In 2018, Wales Online reported that Endlessly had sold 308,000 copies;[1] as of 2020, however, the BPI has not amended its certification from Gold to Platinum,[2] the threshold for which is 300,000 sales.[3]

There's been a lot of activity by people trying to add a platinum certification, but I don't think there are any sources saying that. To my mind, then, changing the certification to Platinum is WP:OR. I'm not convinced the bit after the semicolon isn't WP:SYNTH, but at the time it was the only compromise I could think of.

Pinging Dhoffryn. Pings don't work for IP editors, but I've left a {{Please see}} notification on the talk pages of the two IP addresses that edited today to show a platinum certification, 2.29.187.107 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) and 92.40.188.93 (talk · contribs · WHOIS).

@YorkshireLad: From where exactly did Wales Online really get that number? Because The Guardian posted 200,000 number and then seven years later Official Charts repeated the same number. And now we have data that as of 2021 according to Official Charts that is actually 205,000 (someone added it to discography page). And certifications became automated by 2013 so if it really did reach platinum status it would be platinum. Dhoffryn (talk) 15:45, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Dhoffryn, No idea! I'd be happy with removing the Wales Online source, since it seems to contradict most of the rest. And a Google search for '"306,000" endlessly' returns nothing but WO, mirrors of it and unrelated things. I included that source as part of a compromise wording; I don't think I was the first person to add it to the article. YorkshireLad  ✿  (talk) 15:51, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@YorkshireLad: I am not that familiar with Wales Online, that was the only other place where that number came up. I usually stick with Music Week or Official Charts. For sure there can be sales reports from other sources, but here it just does not fit. And certifications in the UK use Official Charts as the source. That's just my take.
