{{Edit semi-protected|Celine Dion|answered=yes}}
Celine Dion was the best selling artist of the 1990s. However according to Guinness World Records, “Since 1983, Madonna (USA, b. Madonna Ciccone) has sold an estimated 335 million albums and singles (including digital tracks) worldwide”, making her the best-selling female recording artist of all time. Madonna is considered a contemporary music artist.

== The Accent Mark ==
:the vast majority of those sales were singles - and Guiness' source for their statement is very questionable, as many articles on truly tracking down what has sold, what has shipped but not sold, etc. etc. are out there [[Special:Contributions/50.111.31.194|50.111.31.194]] ([[User talk:50.111.31.194|talk]]) 23:59, 18 September 2022 (UTC)


Your source did not state Madonna as the best selling contemporary artist nor did it state Madonna as a contemporary artist. She is a pop artist. It will remain as it is until you can provide better source. Thank you. [[User:Loibird90|Loibird90]] ([[User talk:Loibird90|talk]]) 11:41, 29 December 2021 (UTC)
a large part of her catalog (mainly the French albums) have the accent mark over the first e, while the english language albums do not. DO you think it should be noted that sometimes it's stylized without it career wise? [[User:MaJic|MaJic]] ([[User talk:MaJic|talk]]) 00:50, 27 May 2024 (UTC)

Why isn't her father Adhémar-Charles Dion listed along with the mother in the box that has "Parent"? He is listed on the mother's Wikipedia page as Celine's father. [[User:Wickorama|Wickorama]] ([[User talk:Wickorama|talk]]) 03:43, 27 May 2023 (UTC)
