RIAA's site is very out of date. They very rarely update their searchable database (as I have proven on the discussion page of Talk: Nickelback discography ), and they also rarely update their news articles. For example Futuresex Lovesounds isn't even certified Gold according to RIAA's searchable database, and their are many other examples. Billboard gets their information on certifications directly from the RIAA, otherwise they would be getting sued for putting false RIAA certifications on their site. Billboard has the album as being 3x platinum by the RIAA, so it is 3x platinum. We need to put Billboard as a reliable source for RIAA certifications, because RIAA's site has gotten extremely sloppy at updating certifications. They only seem to do it a couple times a year, and we shouldn't have to wait when Billboard has the most current RIAA certifications on their site. Again I got into a argument about this same thing on Nicelback's All the Right Reasons, so see their discography discussion page if you want further proof that RIAA's site is almost always out of date, and Billboard is an acceptable site for RIAA certifications WIKI-GUY-16 09:39, April 26 2007 (UTC)
Hello, I´m from germany! Normally I edit german wikipedia-sites, but I´ve seen that something´s wrong... Justin never had three # 1´s in Germany! The titles "Cry Me A River" and "Senorita" reached # 13 and "Rock Your Body" only # 25. You can watch it up on the german page ... greatings --

I can spot several incorrect chart positions in the "singles" section of this discography. Could someone please correct them. 220.101.48.181 2:04, September 22, 2007 (UTC)
The positions in the "Pop 100" coloumn for "Like i love you", "Cry me a river", "Rock your body" and "Senorita" are all false because the pop 100 was created in 2005 and only a small number of singles released beforehand charted. 220.101.48.181 11:24, October 3, 2007 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.101.48.108 ( talk)
A source has been provided for these chart positions.
Like I love you #5 Cry me a river #6 Rock your body #6 Sexyback #7 My Love #19 What goes around... #13 etc
Stop changing them to #2, #12 etc. JayJ47 ( talk) 03:59, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
This song is not from 2010. It was recorded for her 2008 album, Hard Candy, but didn't make the final cut. The single leaked this year on the internet. Incidentally, there's a Wikipedia page of unreleased Madonna songs that also mentions this. 130.76.32.19 ( talk) 18:49, 17 May 2010 (UTC)
Don't know how to make a new section, sorry! The article is locked so I can't correct "consists in" - that's very annoying! -- 81.156.225.83 ( talk) 11:26, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Justin Timberlake discography's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Please change the peak chart position in the US of Pusher love girl in the other charted songs section from - to 64 according to Billboard charts of this week: [1] 178.135.28.110 ( talk) 11:02, 28 March 2013 (UTC)
Why is every song jumbled into one table? Look at every other discography article and the main artist/featured artist singles are separated. Putting them together makes the table very messy... Contactman7 ( talk) 17:00, 10 July 2013 (UTC)
Just looking at this page. It's completely ridiculous to have Justin's featured songs in the same table, it completely ruins the flow of it. Every. single. artist. on wikipedia has it the other way with features in a different table. I don't understand why it couldn't be changed. It makes the page really disgusting to look at. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.240.145.253 ( talk) 02:15, 27 July 2013 (UTC)
And yes, I made a WP:BOLD edit to Lady Gaga discography (those are allowed, you know?) and was reverted. I didn't continue with the edit, as I'm not a main contributor to the article, so if that's the style that's preferred for that article, I am fine with that. And I thought we agreed on Fergie discography? — Statυs ( talk, contribs) 15:07, 27 July 2013 (UTC)
Also, having singles that did not chart anywhere and does not even have their own pages is obviously not necessary information. This whole page is an absolute mess. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.240.145.253 (talk) 02:15, 27 July 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.240.145.253 ( talk)
On one of my edits to this article I added Belgium (Flanders) as the tenth chart in the singles/albums tables to complete the 10-chart maximum (as mentioned in
WP:DISCOGSTYLE), only to be
reverted (in good faith) on the basis that Timberlake doesn't have much certifications in the country (three four in all: Justified, FutureSex/LoveSounds, "4 Minutes", and "Give It to Me") – which is understandable (if nothing better can be found then I'd like to restore Belgium, which I believe would be the next best thing—nearly all his releases have charted there). So I'd like to open this section up for any potential suggestions regarding which country to add as the tenth chart.

How come "Where Is the Love" (2003), The Black Eyed Peas ft Justin Timberlake is not mentioned under "As featured artist"? That is one of his biggest ever songs of his career, as featured or main artist.
I hope someone fixes this up. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.73.130.151 ( talk) 04:19, 29 May 2015 (UTC)
