  • "with the quintet" → A lot of people won't know what this is, best to just say the band or One Direction

  DoneRobin (talk) 22:47, 13 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

  • shipments, not sales. See here.

  Not done; When comes to digital sales of singles, a certification denotes a number of sales. — Robin (talk) 22:47, 13 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

No, some countries are sales, some are shipments. Hence why I attached the link for you.  — AARONTALK
  • "The vocal ensemble" → One Direction. Ensemble is more for clothing.

Critical response
  • This section heavily focuses on the use of quotations. Several need to be in your own words or a mix of the two.
Live performances
  • I made some little edits
    • Why did you remove UK from The X Factor; its just confusing now. — Robin (talk) 22:47, 13 February 2013 (UTC)Reply
Weekly charts
  • The Chart column needs the shading, like the Certification table

  DoneRobin (talk) 22:47, 13 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

  • 2012 peaks and 2013 peaks should be in separate tables.

  Done; all peaks where in 2012.. — Robin (talk) 22:47, 13 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

Publishers are needed to meet FA not GA; so I'm not adding them. — Robin (talk) 22:47, 13 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

No, you can get away without having a work parameter if it is unknown, but not for publishers. All references, regardless of what it is for, need a publisher.  — AARONTALK 22:50, 13 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for reviewing, Aaron! — Robin (talk) 22:47, 13 February 2013 (UTC)Reply
OMFG!!!!!! I thought I had already saved the adjustments to the article before responding to your posts; I closed the tab without saving all the adjustments, thinking it was an old version of article I had left open. I'll be back 2morrow............ — Robin (talk) 23:00, 13 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

I've done everything you want, I guess. — Robin (talk) 14:09, 16 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

You haven't changed sales to shipments. All US certifications are according to shipments only.  — AARONTALK 16:11, 16 February 2013 (UTC)Reply
But the way I have written it now doesn't indicate that the RIAA denotes its sales or shipments. — Robin (talk) 16:21, 16 February 2013 (UTC)Reply
But that's not the point. It's incorrect.  — AARONTALK 16:22, 16 February 2013 (UTC)Reply
Done — Robin (talk) 16:27, 16 February 2013 (UTC)Reply
Actually Australia is also shipments. New Zealand is okay though, they base certifications on sales. This is a handy page to know.  — AARONTALK 16:32, 16 February 2013 (UTC)Reply
Did the Aussie cert as well. — Robin (talk) 16:36, 16 February 2013 (UTC)Reply
Passing.  — AARONTALK 16:37, 16 February 2013 (UTC)Reply
