RIAA certifications[edit]

The RIAA web site has a searchable database for gold and platinum certifications that contains two fields, one for the certification (gold, platinum or multi-platinum) and another for the level (2x, 3x, etc.). Search results for multi-platinum awards show each field, so an album that has sold 2 million units will appear as "2x multi-platinum". However, this is not the common usage of the term. For example, if you were to google the exact phrase "2x platinum" you would find 38,500 results. If you google the exact phrase "2x multi-platinum", you will get 530 results. I suggest using the more common term "2x platinum" as it completely describes the information being conveyed and fits more comfortably into most discography tables. Please concur or oppose on this page so that a consensus can be reached. Piriczki (talk) 02:08, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Some articles that've acheived FL status make use of the multi prefix and some articles don't. I tried to start a discussion like this months ago on the project discussion page, which really is where this should go ultimately. While it's only one word, *shrugs*, if it's good enough for the RIAA then it should be good enough for Wikipedia.Odin's Beard (talk) 02:29, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Storytellers[edit]

This discography is missing the album "Storytellers" which is something like the MTV Unplugged but from VH1, the artist tells some stories before/after each song. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.107.151.254 (talk) 00:41, 2 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Johnny Cash[edit]

There is no mention of the Johnny Cash album where Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers are the backing band. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.34.22.146 (talk) 10:31, 29 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

There is no mention of the album "Nobody's Children" released in 2015; it's not clear to me if this is a hybrid greatest hits or something else. But the album cover clearly states that is is a Tom Petty and the Heartbreaker's album — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.231.98.31 (talk) 15:26, 19 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
