Worldwide album sales[edit]

Oasis sold aproximately 49 million copies from their studio albums by July 2006. Stop the Clocks have sold 2 million not 1,1

thats true..that stop the clocks sales make no sense in any way...alone in uk it sold more than 1 million, in japan it solb almost 250 thousand...waht a bullshit...sorry,but its just rubbish that 1.1 mio..so the low sales from morning glory are...come on : alone in europe mg sold over 7 mio, in usa it sold 5 mio until now, in canada it sold 0.8 mio(as far as i know), in australia 0.4 mio...so the rest of the world is just 1.8 mio??? ridiculous

* They did no such thing. Their own official website (which if anything will exaggerate their sales) states that they sold less that 40 million by July 2006, and with an extra 2 mill from Stop The Clocks, that would bring their total up to about the 40 mill mark by 2007 (give or take a mill).

Furthermore, it is NOT POSSIBLE for "Whats The Story" to have sold 20 million copies worldwide, and to suggest that it has is blatant and deliberate misinformation and an abuse of Wikipedia.

Please note that Wikipedia is NOT a fan website, although fans are, of course, more than welcome to post information on it. However, they should remember that it is an online encyclopedia and has to maintain unbiased and informative content, and all information has to be verifiable from RELIABLE sources (i.e. - not fan websites or fans' own wishful thinking). If users persist in posting deliberately false information on Wikipedia pages, they will have their accounts and/or IP numbers blocked permanently.

thats weird: Don! t believe the truth sold 400 thousand copies in us??? last what ive heard was about 190 thousand.....?????

Morning glory sold 40 millions?[edit]

[1]

It says: Second album, What's The Story, (Morning Glory), from which several of the tracks here are drawn, remains the highest ever certified album at 14 x platinum whilst their combined album sales total close to, a remarkable 40 million sales worldwide.

I still have doubts about it, so I won't edit the page yet...

its rumoured, thriller has sold 60 mio til nowadays, but from where do you think, comes the other half of the sales(besides 30 mio in us, perhaps less) from all around the world..? is that impossible, too?? why shpuld that be impossible that sales of mg are close to 20 mio or even more? of course there are countries or even whole continent which cannot be included in terms of sales(africa), but there is more in this world than just uk an us

Sibling rivalry?[edit]

Should Sibling rivalry be on this page?SimonFromLids 08:49, 5 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think you're thinking of "Wibbling Rivalry". I'm not too sure about mentioning coz if I remeber correctly it is a bootleg. However, if is a very high-profile, significant and well-known bootleg so I'm not sure.--Crestville 15:18, 5 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

it wasn't a bootleg, it was a single, but it wasn't released by Oasis. it was released by some other record company, presumably whoever held the rights to the interview. it was the highest charting interview single in history.83.147.134.22 (talk) 18:49, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Singles Box Sets?[edit]

As cited and referenced on the corresponding website [2] of UK chart stats, a silver singles box of Definitely Maybe singles and a gold singles box of Morning Glory singles were both released as box sets in November 1996 in the UK and charted at 23 and 24 in the UK respectively. This should obviously pose the question...why arent they mentioned or listed on the discography page?

Missing Album[edit]

I recall an album with part of an evil girls face, where it that? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 12.41.204.3 (talk) 20:52, 5 December 2006 (UTC).[reply]

OK, I think the album is 'Stop the Clocks', but when I surf for it a different cover comes up.

Rating?[edit]

Okay, I remember seeing this as a model for discographies a long while ago, but I forget what WikiProject/Portal i linked from. Anyway, this is a very detailed and comprehensive article, and I feel it should be recognized. How about even going for a GA rating? I think it's worthy, other than the fact that there are barely any citations for sales figures. What do you guys think? -- Reaper X 19:29, 15 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sales figures too overbloated to be considered maybe.--Play Brian Moore 14:01, 17 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Noel Assessment of Sales[edit]

Im sure in a newsnight interview Noel said Oasis sold 45 million albums - Might be bloated but hs bank balance may suggest otherwise [[3]] In top right of page there is a link for interview. Oasis have not sold 50 million albums. But 40 for sure. Including singles Oasis have sold over 50 million records in total as on that BBC programme 'The Gallaghers Millions' it said they have sold 6 million single in UK alone. Im sure another 4 have been sold outside uk as wonderwall is platinum in USA.

accualy Wonderwall is gold in The USA (500,000) and so is Champange Supersnova :)

US Billboard Charts??[edit]

who added that US Billboard Charts thing in the singles thing thats very wrong Bobo6balde66 19:03, 18 April 2007 (UTC) What is This Is Some Might Say?[4] --195.50.31.213 (talk) 08:30, 7 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Oasis The Importance of Being Idle.jpg[edit]

Image:Oasis The Importance of Being Idle.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 05:04, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair Use Images[edit]

The use of images in this way is not in accordance with Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria policy (likely in that the use is not minimal (3.a.) and it is in a list or a gallery (8.)). The gallery has thus been deprecated. EliminatorJR Talk 14:22, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Whatever was not an EP[edit]

It was a non-album single. Someone please change it? 67.124.172.254 18:31, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

B-sides list?[edit]

We really need a full list of all of Oasis' B-sides, specifically the ones that WEREN'T included on The Masterplan. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mikemckiernan (talkcontribs) 06:23, 4 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Stop Messing With Album Sales Totals[edit]

No need to exaggerate the sales ok! DBTT has not sold 4 million And be here now is not 10 million —Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.32.126.16 (talk) 13:00, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Worldwide Information??[edit]

Does anyone have the worldwide chart history for Oasis like in other european nations and Asia and Mexico It would be good to have as much as possible on here.

Continued rise in number of Stop The Clocks albums sold[edit]

What are these rises based upon? The link provided underneath is invalid.--Play Brian Moore (talk) 00:40, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Discrepancy in Sales Figures/Certifications[edit]

I notice that a number of the sales figures and certifications for certain albums on this page are listed differently in different sections e.g. is definitely maybe 7 or 8 times platinum? this is also the case for stop the clocks and morning glory. Perhaps a keen and honest fan could sort these? this is quite obvious as i noticed this on a casual reading of the page so there may be more besides these —Preceding unsigned comment added by Spicefunk (talkcontribs) 22:57, 5 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, IP address user's often change all the sales figures upwards and during the edit wars that follow, snipets of mistakes get left in the article. The article was blocked at one stage and at this rate it is only a matter of time before this will happen again.--Play Brian Moore (talk) 20:04, 8 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Websites which might help for citations[edit]

These have data on chart runs if you just search 'Oasis' into the search column http://www.dutchcharts.nl/ http://www.swedishcharts.com/ http://finnishcharts.com/ http://italiancharts.com/ http://danishcharts.com/ http://swisscharts.com/ http://lescharts.com/index.asp

if i ever get time i'll add the data onto this page - but if someone else wants to then please do so —Preceding unsigned comment added by TheWulf (talkcontribs) 11:03, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Music videos[edit]

It appears that list of music videos is short a few. Did Oasis not release music videos for Acquiesce and The Masterplan in 2006?--Play Brian Moore (talk) 01:00, 7 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, and I think they're in 1998 by accident, but I'm not sure. - Addit (talk) 23:21, 21 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The b-sides list[edit]

I went ahead and deleted the unfinished list of b-sides to date. I find it unnecesary. You can find information on their b-sides on their respective singles pages. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.2.179.52 (talk) 03:40, 12 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Music download release format[edit]

I have changed the music download release format to read "DL" instead of "download". I believe this makes it look a lot tidier, and fits in with the rest of the formats, thus producing continuity. Please discuss whether you support or oppose this move by leaving a comment saying "Support" or "Oppose", with comments. Thanks. Andre666 (talk) 06:02, 6 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Some Chart Positions Incorrect[edit]

I have edited the Irish album positions as they were all #1 except Dig out Your Soul and Stop the Clocks. The website which is cited only takes into account re-entries of the early albums since 2000 onwards hence it says Definitley Maybe charted quite low. I have not found another website yet for the reference to say DM and WTSMG and BNH were all #1 in Ireland but that is correct. —Preceding unsigned comment added by TheWulf (talkcontribs) 17:38, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Surely if the reissues charted it still counts? It is the same album. What you're saying would mean putting the album twice in studio albums, which... no. Andre666 (talk) 18:31, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What i mean is the website information is for post 2000 only. Therefore the peak position of DM, WTSMG and BNH was not that position in the post 2000 era. Those albums all peaked at #1 but the website only takes into account post 2000 chart positions. Thats why i changed the positions to thier peak of #1. I'm on the prowl for a site or a book which states this so i can reference them. —Preceding unsigned comment added by TheWulf (talkcontribs) 21:46, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm Outta Time[edit]

Why is it under Extended Play? Definitely isn't one, it was released as a single. I've removed it but the Extended Play section has moved to the Singles section. I'm not sure how to put it right, so anyone who can do, i'd be grateful. Thanks. --Ike1000 (talk) 18:34, 13 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

German Charts ?[edit]

where are the german charts? germany is the third biggest music market in the world! so many countries in the list (not important countries like austria, switzerland and sweden), but the important music market germany is not inside! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.244.66.104 (talk) 09:05, 22 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

EP[edit]

The index on the right side of the page in the introduction mentions 2 EPs, however, the article only features 1 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.49.40.144 (talk) 20:51, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

DVD Sales[edit]

Should the BPI's sales certifications on Oasis' VHS/DVD releases be included on this page? They are official and seem entirely relevant. They are available by typing 'Oasis' in the search engine on http://www.bpi.co.uk/certifiedawards/search.aspx. Play Brian Moore (talk) 22:42, 5 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

A few things missing - Promo CDs[edit]

Hi everyone. I have collected, over the years, a few bits and bobs that have come free in Newspapers and music magazines (to be more detailed, NME). These are a few promos in these publications that are not mentioned in the list:

Well, that was a breath full but it's all over know. What do you think?--77.99.231.37 (talk) 17:50, 19 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

U.S. Alternative Songs chart positions added[edit]

Regarding the U.S. music charts, the Billboard Hot 100 does not fully illustrate the impact that Oasis made during the 1990s and early 2000s, so I've added the Billboard Alternative Songs chart positions as well to better illustrate it. Even though only a handful of their songs received radio airplay on pop stations in the U.S., many of their songs were staples on alternative stations. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.81.96.210 (talk) 17:20, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

US chart positions are very confusing ![edit]

Overall the chart positions for US charts mention THE HOT 100 but here we see positions with quotes like Alternative Songs and Pop songs

thats not nice

if some looks at some positions like # 108 in the us charts and then for champagne supernova (#20) thats not comparable,. Because one is HOT 100 the other alternative songs

Thats confusing OASIS never had been a us hot 100 topping band. Although they sold millions of albums but they had 3 hot 100 entries. thats nothing special most british bands have this problem.

Please change that — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.111.57.236 (talk) 11:02, 5 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

MTV Unplugged[edit]

Is there a reason the MTV Unplugged album is not listed? Laned130 (talk) 07:29, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I've got a copy of the album that I ripped from CD years ago (which I no longer have). My track list is the same as the one in this YouTube video:

  1. Hello
  2. Some Might Say
  3. Listen Up
  4. Live Forever
  5. The Masterplan
  6. Don't Look Back In Anger
  7. Talk Tonight
  8. Morning Glory
  9. Round Are Way
  10. Cast No Shadow
  11. Whatever
  12. Wonderwall

My research so far:

I hope someone can take this research further, and get enough details to list it in the article. --Laned130 (talk) 15:55, 4 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Cash Box?[edit]

What are those "Cash" chart positions supposed to mean? Its article tells it was a music (and chart) magazine somewhat similar to Billboard. But, I thought the Billboard charts have become almost the standard in the US, and this is the first time I saw other US charts listed in a discography. 188.238.115.149 (talk) 00:54, 3 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
