Orphaned references in List of Metallica band members edit

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 Metallica band members'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 "RIAA Top Sellers":

  • From Metallica: "RIAA total sales". RIAA. Retrieved 2006-12-05.
  • From Metallica discography: "RIAA Total Sales". RIAA. Retrieved 2006-12-05.

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 00:21, 17 December 2008 (UTC)Reply
