Talk:List of awards and achievements for Madonna
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] 31 Jan 7 question: Madonna's top 5 singles record
In the trivia section of Madonna's achievements/awards page it says this:
- Madonna has the most consecutive top 5 singles (16) from 1984 (Lucky star) to 1989 (Cherish).
She has the most consecutive top 20 debuts in the charts (27) from 1983 to 1992. Mariah Carey had a #1 every year of the 1990s, so that = 10. So doesnt that beat Madonna's 5 consecutive hits from 1984-9? MC's were all #1, were Madonna's? What is meant by consecutive top 5 singles? Also, didnt MC also beat her 27 top 20 debuts from 1983-1992 in the 1990s with all her #1 songs? Thx for clearing this up. 208.58.196.156 19:11, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
According to the Billboard Book of Number One Hits article for "Like A Prayer", it says Madonna had been "absent from the Hot 100 for a year and a half before releasing the lead single from her album Like A Prayer.)- Tdawgfive5six9 10:51, 25 November 2005 (UST-6)
[edit] IFPI
In January 3, 2006 the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry released its "Biggest Selling Artists Worlwide" list naming Madonna as the Top-Selling Female Artist of the World with sales of 275,000,000 records, and the 4th biggest selling artist over all.
- As per the main Madonna article discussion, let's not add the IFPA info until we've got a direct source link.

Again, this article has become a place for editors to reflect on the greatness of their queen. First and foremost, the article is extremely repetitive. For example, it claims that Madonna is the most successful about ten different times. Also, much of the chart information is repetivive and unsourced. Guys, we still have to remember that this is an article in an encyclopedia. Orane (talk • cont.) 07:54, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
