:::::I also found [https://observer.com/2015/10/the-complex-legacy-of-oasis-classic-whats-the-story-morning-glory/ this source by New York Observer] which states 20 million.--[[User:Harout72|Harout72]] ([[User talk:Harout72|talk]]) 00:31, 15 June 2022 (UTC)
::'''It seems common among artists of this gener (black music, R&B, Hip Hop) to inflate sales enough to value the artists and place them above other artists, especially white ones'''. REALLY? Are you saying the sales of white artists are not inflated or exaggerated on Wikipedia and elsewhere? I can show you the edit history of many incident to inflate the sales of Elvis Presley, Beatles, Madonna, Taylor Swift, and Eminem as few white artists . Are you saying you do not consider them as white artists?. I've been expressed the concern about the [[Racial bias on Wikipedia]] in the past and you are further proving my points.

:::Contrary, Markus already deflated many inflated sales of artists you constantly attribute him as a "fan", while he is neutral most of the time. He's not with the old hat of "but it have reliable sources". Certainly, artists related to urban music have IPs or other editors increasing the sales with the next available higher sales. That's not racial issues, but a true fact. See Janet Jackson history. --[[User:Apoxyomenus|Apoxyomenus]] ([[User talk:Apoxyomenus|talk]]) 00:00, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
:::No, I'm not saying that there aren't fans of white artists who want to inflate their idols' sales around here. But most of the cases I see and also the ones I've had problems with are artists of this genre.--[[User:Markus WikiEditor|Markus WikiEditor]] ([[User talk:Markus WikiEditor|talk]]) 22:32, 15 June 2022 (UTC)
