Anniversary edition addition

Do you think a new section outlining the recent 25th anniversary deluxe edition of the album is warranted? I believe there is justified informative substantive on the new collaborations within the album and the sales of the rerelease. ƒin (talk) 05:50, 1 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I believe a new section is warranted, with the addition of an image of the anniversary edition's cover artwork. Sliv812 (talk) 22:18, 6 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Best selling

Hey there, the article currently says, this Album is the best selling Christmas album of all time, whereas this article about Elvis' Christmas Album claims the same: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elvis%27_Christmas_Album

Original source about the 15 million copies sold is paywalled, but Elvis' article claims at least 20 million sold. Maybe this should be adjusted or corrected?
