13 Grammy Awards

I made some changes in regard to his Grammys. He won a total of 13 Grammy Awards. If you do a search on the grammy website you will see that he was won 13. He is credited by the recording academy as a 13 time Grammy winner. In addition there are other honors that he has recieved from the recording academy. These are non competitive awards. This include a Legend Award, Lifetime Achievement award as well as 3 of his recordings being inducted into the grammy hall of fame. These honors are considered separate from the grammys he has won. --Alextwa (talk) 20:10, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

Again what I stated above is true. I keep coming back and my edits are reverted. What I have posted is fact. Look it up on the Grammy winners search on grammy.com --Alextwa (talk) 15:12, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

OK, well obviously something is wrong here. The infobox says 13 but then if you go down and count the awards section (w/o the special awards, jackson 5, or 3 of we are the world honors) it totals to 18...I think the table got messed up by accident.

Secondly, i think there is some confusion about the total awards. Even if the honorary awards are not counted in the competitive field by the Grammy Association, they are still Grammys won by the artist, so in the infobox which is just an overview, it is perfectly acceptable to count them in.

On the grammy records article beyonce knowles is featured as one of the artists with the most grammys won in a lifetime with 16 (3 w Destiny's Child and 13 solo), counting every single grammy she has won, solo or in a group, however for michael only his solo earnings are used, that's not fair. Obviously that is very misleading and knowles has not received more awards than jackson, but based on these articles that is the conclusion and it is a publication mistake.

If groups are counted into lifetime totals, then obviously usa for africa and jackson 5 should be included in jackson's lifetime total, at least on the grammy page and for his biography. not to mention USAFA was a one time project that wouldn't merit its own awards page. I get not placing those here as this is a list of awards received by jackson, however there should at least be some mention as to not mislead readers. In either case, Jackson was the songwriter of "We Are the World" which won for Song of the Year, so his solo wins total to 14 NOT 13.'

Jackson' lifetime Grammy total is 18 (which is what should be placed on the Grammy Award records article, placing him 7th for most lifetime awards overall and 3rd for a male artist.) It should also be mentioned on his bio (explaining that five were within group appearances). They total to 13 awards as a solo artist, 4 as part of USA for Africa (although 1 should DEFINITELY be counted into his regular awards as it is for his songwriting contribution) and 1 with the Jackson 5, with an addition three works honored in the hall of fame, while 3 additional awards have been given to Jackson works, although not directly to Jackson, which deserves an honorable mention in the article somewhere.

A list of Jackson works that have earned Grammys by album. (This should also help w fixing the table)

GreekStar12 (talk) 20:03, 28 July 2010 (UTC)

It is a total of 13 awards he won. The other awards he got from the Recording Academy are technically not Grammy Awards. He has won a total of 13 Grammy Awards. You can go to the Grammy Awards winners search here: http://www.grammy.com/nominees/search?artist=Michael+Jackson&title=&year=All&genre=All

The other special awards he got from the academy were technically non competitive honors that the academy gives out frequently. --MusicGeek101 (talk) 04:05, 2 July 2012 (UTC)

Could this page be expanded?

This page only includes award wins, but could it be expanded to include nominations too? Until that is added, the Result column seems a bit redundant...79.69.203.4 (talk) 13:40, 24 February 2010 (UTC)

External links cleanup

Someone really needs to convert the external references to use the various template cite forms. This would reduce the number of references listed in this article. I'll try to do a few as an example. Vegaswikian 02:54, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

additional awards: for michael jackson, he won the thurgood marshall award as well as being mtv news man of the year for 2009. and won the billboard reader's poll for #1 album of the 2000's (invincible) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Oromeen (talkcontribs) 19:48, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

Sources reliable?

I have concerns that the sources given in this article don't mean our standards as reliable sources. 90% of them come from a fan forum. I don't think that these are appropriate according to our standards. Metros 04:57, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Agreed that, technically, as outlined in Wikipedia policies, MJJForum does not count as a reliable source. However, I don't necessarily view this as a problem for this type of article; that is to say, a list (unless we had greater aspirations, like taking this to FA status). If I were using these sources for the actual Michael Jackson article, it would be a big problem. But for here, the standards can be a little laxer.UberCryxic 07:27, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

No they can't. We don't have different policies depending on the type of article you want to make. For many of these awards, reliable sources are out there, if you are willing to spend some time. Awards without such sources will be removed. If then nothing is left of the article, logically the article will be deleted. I have given you an example of how easy it can be to find the sources (even online) at WP:AIV. Fram 14:18, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Yes, quite a bit of time. The convenience was too tempting. I'll look for better sources, but it will take some effort. And actually, in Wikipedia we do place less emphasis on certain types of articles above others. A list like this is nowhere near as important as the actual Michael Jackson article. You can say what you want all day as a normative principle, but I'm telling you that, descriptively, Wikipedia operates like this all the time (ie. weaker sources in "weaker" or less important articles). You'll find that articles like this one, relating to the awards that a musical act has won, cite fan sites endlessly because they are the ones that usually contain that information in one concentrated place.UberCryxic 17:52, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

just adding the same link to the same fan forum page 200 times does NOT equal WP:RS - there is no technically about it. I am busy today but I plan to remove all 200 of those links (and check the yahoo one as well) over the weekend. --Fredrick day 16:04, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Yes there is. Technically, the source I added is not reliable. I'm not saying something out of the blue here (I'm actually agreeing with you on that point). But where the material is likely to be less controversial, like a list of awards, the sources get correspondingly less reliable (everywhere in Wikipedia, not just here). Why? See above. Convenience mainly. Some of these acts have won hundreds of awards; scouring the net for reliable sources that say that would be extremely difficult, although achievable with enough will.UberCryxic 17:54, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

complete and utter nonsense - we do NOT put less of an emphasis on certain types of article where BLP is concerned, repeating what you'd like to be true does not make it be so. --Fredrick day 17:59, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

This is not a biography. You're making the same irrelevant point as Metros. This is a list of awards. It is less relevant as, say, an article on the actual person.UberCryxic 18:08, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

It is subjected to the policies of living biographies as it is an extension of his biography. Awards and achievements are contained in most biographies; this one is different because it is too large to be contained in the main article on Jackson so it is split into this article. Metros 18:25, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Other examples

Here are a few other similar articles of living persons that suffer from the same problems:

  • Celine Dion awards and accomplishments - Virtually all claims go uncited. There is, however, an external link to Celine Dion's official website, which I presume was the source used for much of this stuff, if not all of it.
  • List of Mariah Carey awards - As with Celine Dion, virtually all the claims here are uncited. In the references section, there is a (oh wait wait this will be shocking!) a fan site that lists her awards.

I could go on like this for a while. Point is Wikipedia has crappy articles like this. Either make the decision to delete them all, or.....don't and try to make a significant change as highlighted by Fram above, which would require a whole lot of effort.UberCryxic 18:20, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS - so what? then those articles need to be sourced or deleted, the poor quality of one argument is not an argument to not try and improve the quality of others. This is an ENCYCLOPEDIA - we don't say "oh finding good sources is hard, so we'll not bother!". --Fredrick day 18:26, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

People keep bringing that up. That's a bad argument. If you want to change this article, you're going to have to deal with all those other articles for the sake of standardization, which Wales has identified as a big problem. You can't just screw one article over and not bother with the rest. Well, people do that often, but they shouldn't. That's a stain on the encyclopedia that you're leaving there.UberCryxic 18:48, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

All of these articles are subject to the Biographies of living persons policy:
Unsourced or poorly sourced contentious material — whether negative, positive, or just highly questionable — about living persons should be removed immediately and without discussion from Wikipedia articles,[2] talk pages, user pages, and project space.
This policy applies equally to biographies of living persons and to biographical material about living persons in other articles. The burden of evidence for any edit on Wikipedia, but especially for edits about living persons, rests firmly on the shoulders of the person who adds or restores the material.
Edits to remove such material is not subject to the Three revert rule. --Tony Sidaway 18:43, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

This is not really "contentious" material, leaving aside specific awards.UberCryxic 18:51, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Clarification needed

I also wrote about this on Fredrick's talk page if some want more information. MJJForum has been deleted as a source, but the HIStory album has been left intact. This is vastly redundant as that fan site got these awards from that album (how do I know? Because the awards listed in the fan site and those in the album match almost exactly up until 1994). If, however, people consider the HIStory album a reliable source (or the booklet it came with, which details Jackson's awards up until 1994), then much of this stuff can be cited right now.UberCryxic 18:59, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Almost all of this stuff comes from the History booklet and also the Michael Jackson Ultimate collection booklets it has to be said, they are published material so have been checked for their reliability.Realist2 07:22, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Cleanup in dire need

Seriously, the layout and referencing of this article sucks. The awards need to be rationalised into one and two-shots and otherwise, they need to be collected by type, not a full chronological listing. It's absurt. It's very well researched, as I'm certain it's complete and sourced, but we need to have inline references and citations for every entry, and it can't be a chaotic chronological listing like this. --lincalinca 11:50, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

top nonce?

em.. I doubt that Michael Jackson was given an award for "top nonce" by Paul Glad (Gary Glitter). you guys asleep at the wheel? --88.105.60.177 (talk) 16:20, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

Advise before FL

  • RIAA certifications need updating, I'm quite sure he's has more recent certifications, and not just singles and albums. Check the RIAA website and search for Michael Jackson. — R2 09:05, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Erm, I still hadn't finished, there is still stuff to take care of. Sorry I didn't make myself clear. I'll try and fix up some stuff, but I don't think it will be successful yet. — R2 12:53, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
Oops. Will I take it off the candidate list or just leave it? Pyrrhus16 13:10, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
May as well keep it on, if we work together we might be able to fix any opposition. — R2 13:23, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
Ok. Pyrrhus16 13:25, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
Is this mentioned in the article?, I can't find it mentioned but it is rather long lol. — R2 13:29, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
No, it's not. Pyrrhus16 13:34, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
I think it should be, probably in the bottom section. — R2 13:37, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
Done. Pyrrhus16 13:47, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

What happened to all of the awards?

Before there were 413 awards for MJ. Now its down to 100-somthin' awards.

I know you have a problem with the whole citation thing, but I can assure you. All the 413 awards on the old page can be backed-up by Adrian Grant's book called "Michael Jackson: The Visual Documentary"- 2005 edition.

I like the format you have now, but you guys are missing A LOT of awards on this list. Especially in The Guinness World Records part. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.198.83.141 (talk) 00:52, 14 April 2009 (UTC)

Can we change the awards?

I agree with the person above in the "What happened to all of the awards?" section. All of the awards are missing that MJ has earned. He got at least 400 awards like this article had pointed out a while ago before it got changed. If I can pull up all the awards from Adrian Grant's book "Michael Jackson: The Visual Documentary"- 2005 edition, can we change this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by KB50MJ (talkcontribs) 11:03, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

most charities supported by a pop star - another guinness world record?

i read michael jackson may have one more guinness world record: most charities supported by a pop star. i have an article mentioning it: http://www.blackstarnews.com/news/135/ARTICLE/5840/2009-07-06.html. can anyone verify this?

he did not win all these awards...

ok michael jackson did not win ALL of the awards on this page...

it says "won" for almost all of them...

he didnt win all of them though...

this page really kinda sucks... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.110.196.43 (talk) 00:01, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

Umm, i think u are confused because it seems by this page that he won 100% of his nominations, which is not true. this page is just for his wins, which all are true. GreekStar12 (talk) 20:07, 28 July 2010 (UTC)
That's what I said, he didn't win all of his nominations, especially the Grammy section. & OK im kinda doubting that he won ALL of these awards. I mean no citations whatsoever!!!! this isn't good. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.110.196.43 (talk) 00:01, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

ok this page needs to be fixed

ok this page needs to be fixed.

michael jackson didn't win all of these awards

the grammy section was awful

i tried to clean that up by fixing all the awards he didn't win from "won" to "nominated"

there is no way that he won all of these awards. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.110.196.43 (talk) 21:18, 30 July 2010 (UTC)

Please Help In Adding Michael's Certification Results

On many of the awards and nominations lists of other artists they have put down the certification results of the albums every-time they were certified. I highly suspect that people are adding these certifications to the number of awards they have one. So if that is the case, could someone please add in Michael's certification results every-time he got certified because i don't really know how the certification results work and they are pretty confusing.

Thank you so much for your time and patience. God Bless, LoveMJKingofMusic (talk) 19:12, 4 June 2012 (UTC)

Mj is not the most downloaded artist in history

This article is incorrect

1) vanity fair magazine is not an award show. Please remove that mj was awarded anything from them . They were 2 puff piece articles which are a dime a dozen that many artists receive

2) mj was the most downloaded at one point , but not anymore . Rihanna is

Please remove


Thank you

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 List of awards and nominations received by Michael Jackson'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 "auto":

  • From Dangerous (Michael Jackson album): Light, Alan; Light, Alan (January 1, 1992). "Dangerous".
  • From YouTube: Todd Spangler, YouTube Terminates Toy Freaks Channel Amid Broader Crackdown on Disturbing Kids’ Content, Variety, November 17, 2017

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 15:00, 8 January 2020 (UTC)

Golden Globe Award inclusion should remain deleted.

I'm sure some of you probably know me but I need to alarm you about the danger of including the Golden Globe Award win for "Ben". As explained in pages such as this page, the award only belongs to songwriters and composers. And on the first page, it clearly says that Jackson was not a songwriter/composer of the song. Now why the Golden Globe site actually listed him having a "win" there confuses me. But I wonder if any of you Jackson fans can explain how Michael can be "credited" with a Golden Globe but not an Academy Award. Also, if you have footage of MJ himself accepting the Golden Globe, that would also be helpful. BrothaTimothy (talk · contribs) 04:46, 7 June 2020 (UTC)

Why should this be explained by MJ fans? The official website of the Golden Globes lists Jackson as the awardee. Ben did not win the Academy Award, so he doesn’t get credited there. Are you certain the award wasn’t credited to it’s performer in the past and then later changed?. Akhiljaxxn (talk) 19:06, 15 June 2020 (UTC)

Edit conflict

As you guys probably have noticed, this page has been in edit conflict, all I've been doing is trying to correct things and have editors provide real sources, rather than sources from fan blogs and from unconfirmed sources. I've tried to correct things like what this particular award goes to. There's no way you can prove that a singer won Best Original Song at the Golden Globes, it's only assumed. He also was nominated for awards that weren't included originally. But it seems some fans wanna keep adding things to the award aisle that doesn't make any sense and credit Michael to awards where he wasn't credited. All I'm doing is correcting it. It shouldn't have to come to false accusations of vandalism. That's been my issue with a lot of Michael Jackson Wikipedia pages, original research is not only allowed, it's encouraged. If we want people to be informed about Michael Jackson, we can't lie or make up things or exaggerate. That's all I'm doing. BrothaTimothy (talk · contribs) 17:47, 15 June 2020 (UTC)

Completely agree. His Wikipedia's articles have had multiple issues with vandalism and exaggerate statements during years and this page was a reflect of all of this issues. Just seemed a fan page with inaccurate and unsourced information, and now improved, but still needs to verifiability and notability and we can see many examples as of Today, like with the American Association of Musicians or American Dance Award etc since they haven't references and IDK how notable this awards are (A judgement by not having a Wikipedia entry, per se). In the other point, would be absurd if an user wanna keep records/awards of the Jackson 5 here or awards that aren't directly to MJ. That's not vandalism and similar pages, especially those who received the FA status follows that rules as possible. --Apoxyomenus (talk) 18:23, 15 June 2020 (UTC)
Then if you want to work on making an article better, do so by discussing change on the talk page, and reaching a consensus. You make claims that “a lot” of these Jackson articles wiki needs work. According to you and who else? Jackson pages are some of the most protected on wiki. You have had people on both sides of the isle, fans and non-fans alike, work together for years on these articles. That should continue as such. TruthGuardians (talk) 20:20, 15 June 2020 (UTC)
I haven't been participate on this "edit conflict", just gave my impression about BrothaTimothy work here and the page's situation before/after. Surely, with goodfaith I would like to see this page with complete and accurate information as any other of the millions Wikipedia's articles, but leaving a comment not necessarily is a obligation to find the proper sources of each awards in this case due factors like my time etc. I also agree with y'all before a massive changes/edits it's proper discuss first on the talk page, although in a comparative I would like to suggest current version restored by @Factlibrary1: just brings back problems mentioned above. Now, there is a MJ:Sanctions that helped/helps a lot preventing desinformation/vandalism etc, however, that was not always the case. But I completely disagree with both versions restore recently after. Maybe this could be necessary forwarded to the Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents/WP:Sanctions IMHO.

This page will be restored (by an admin) to a a time when it was more stable if consensus can not be reached. That time was before it was vandalized to shreds as it is now. One editor is not allowed to monopolize a stable article as Timothy has. In fact, Timothy edits appear to be nothing more than vandalizing of Jackson pages. He has made these pages, and others mentioning Jackson in any sense, a target. The need to work with other editors is a must. Per sanctions on Jackson articles, you can not undo a revert of your edit once reverted without taking issue to talk page. There has been dozen of examples of that behavior on this page alone.2600:6C5E:4B7F:FBFD:452F:12C4:3105:61D0 (talk) 11:00, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 6 September 2021

“Remove ‘Total‘ count. The total of his awards is pretty impossible to know. Awards like the ‘Ryan White Award‘ among hundred of other special awards are not listed. It is best to not put a total count to it. Especially because he is known as the most awarded artist, yet this number is lower than most artist‘ count.“ 2A02:908:157A:2800:A828:B3D9:4739:1D7B (talk) 13:21, 6 September 2021 (UTC)

How Michael Jackson died

Michael Jackson 208.114.93.83 (talk) 21:29, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

"He debuted on the professional music scene at the age of 5, as a member of The Jackson 5"

This should be changed to "He debuted on the public music scene at the age of 5, as a member of The Jackson 5", per the lead of the main article Michael Jackson. 79.66.89.173 (talk) 18:14, 11 February 2023 (UTC)
