Four Big Lies[edit]

I have removed the following addition pending the citation of sources:

4 BIG LIES by World Music Awards: (1) Mariah Carey awarded the biggest selling female artist of the millennium in 2001 (in fact it was Madonna), (2) Michael Jackson awarded the biggest selling male artist of the millennium in 2001 (in fact it was Elvis), (3) Celine Dion awarded the biggest selling female artist ever in 2004 (in fact it was Madonna), and (4) Michael Jackson awarded the biggest selling artist ever in 2007 (in fact Elvis and Madonna are above him)

This award show is pathetic excuse for the state to host this so-called show. The awards are fake to say the least, with biggest-selling titles thrown around like flyers. It is a big joke. Dollvalley (talk) 01:47, 21 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, absoloutely! Celine Dion is the best-selling female artist all time (the fact is MADONNA). Destiny's child the bestselling female group all time (the fact is SPICE GIRLS) Bluesatellite (talk) 13:13, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Article is a bloody mess[edit]

Like them or not, the WMAs are notable. And the quality of the current article is very low. I've started cleaning up some of the yearly award pages which should be named like "2006 World Music Awards" instead of "World Music Awards 2006". There are many MoS problems here too.

best-selling female / male pop artist of the millennium does not exist!!!!!!!![edit]

[1] The editor is a self-confessed Mariah fan (his own profile says so) and wrote the WMA article too... FUNNY how he doesn't put the WMA website in the links!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND avoids any source for the alleged 2000 millemnuium award!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! —Plus, the WMA are not an official chart... And they always have the same artists...

Stop reporting fake facts, the only mention was in the MONACO TOURIST BOARD WEBSITE [2] and the WMA GOT THEM TO REMOVE IT. Ask the WMA, she received a legend Award in 2000 (given for clout, not sales) and a chippendale Diamond (100m copies sold) many other artists have received them!!!!!!!!! STOP LYING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The editor is a Mariah fan (his own profile says so) and wrote the WMA article too... FUNNY how he doesn't put the WMA website in the links!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND avoids any source for the alleged 2000 millemnuium award!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Plus, the WMA are not an official chart... And they always have the same artists... PATHETIC!!!!!!!!!

THIS IS MEANT TO BE AN ENCYCLOPOEDIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
