Quality of Writing
editBadly written/meaning unclear: “Composed in the aftermath of the singer's separation from her then partner, the album typifies the near dormant tradition of the confessional singer-songwriter in its exploration of heartbreak, introspection, and forgiveness.” 2A02:C7E:2D44:D500:14FF:1F35:EC59:D2FF (talk) 01:00, 23 November 2021 (UTC)

21 (Adele album) → 21 (album) – There are only three articles for albums with this title. Given Pageviews and WP:PDAB this is the clear primary album of this title.
"The main question about PDABs is whether a PDAB itself can have a primary topic. In the example of Thriller (album), there is one album that is very well known and is considered much more highly notable than the others.
A request for comments concluded on 3 September 2019 that PDABs can have primary topics, but that "the standard for making disambiguated titles such as Foo (bar) a primary topic among all Foo's that are Bars should be tougher than the standard for titles that don't have any disambiguator". The Wikipedia guideline section known as WP:INCDAB or WP:INCOMPDAB was modified to reflect this." Tree Critter (talk) 04:08, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose - pointless introduction of ambiguity for no benefit to readers, and a detriment to current and future editors who may mistakenly link to the wrong albums. Recent releases often have temporary spikes in pageviews, this doesn't mean we should set aside good sense. -- Netoholic @ 06:48, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose. While the pageviews advantage is clear, I agree that applying WP:THRILLER here doesn't help clarity. See also WP:BROKE. 162 etc. (talk) 16:33, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose. Agreed with the above two points, especially the first. It is not useful to readers. ℛonherry☘ 17:55, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
- Note. I was planning to comment in this RM but I was canvassed by the OP [1] so I will not be doing so. Others were also canvassed as well [2] [3] Calidum 20:50, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
- Strong oppose and speedy close only Michael Jackson breaks the rules on Wikipedia. When Adele rises to demigod above the normal ranks of mankind only then will she be accorded this special privilege. In ictu oculi (talk) 21:51, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
- Comment I just realised that the nom rings a bell, it's the same one again cf. In ictu oculi (talk) 21:52, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

editNo número total (worldwide) está errado, só com as vendas na Europa, Estados Unidos, Reino Unido e no Canadá o álbum já tem 31 milhões de cópias vendidas. Gostaria que vocês adm's atualizassem para os números certos. 168.194.64.138 (talk) 20:13, 7 January 2023 (UTC)
