source for over 70 million records sold figure? I think they sold less than 20 million
[edit]Oasis only had one album that went beyond platinum status, morning glory (about 8 million). Unless you are the rolling stones release albums every few years over decades, how does a band with THREE full length studio albums and a couple compilations, live albums, sell over 70 million? The number doesn’t make sense. Until there is a legit source Im changing it based on world sales and RIAA certification. Shhsbavavaa (talk) 21:33, 17 December 2022 (UTC)
apparently they had about three albums after right here, which sold significantly less than their 90s releases. figure is still absurd. Shhsbavavaa (talk) 21:35, 17 December 2022 (UTC)
Influences reference
[edit]Reference 113 claims that 'Nirvana' among other bands influenced Oasis...as you click the link, the SPIN magazine review NEVER mentions this. Please, delete. 177.245.202.183 (talk) 02:22, 24 January 2023 (UTC)
Done. Thanks for the research. Binksternet (talk) 04:27, 24 January 2023 (UTC)

Reunion? False
[edit]The band has a super low probability of reuniting. I HIGHLY doubt that they’d actually come back in 2 years’ time 2603:8001:2E07:2D00:1542:78A1:1792:2502 (talk) 22:08, 24 May 2023 (UTC)
Oasis' worldwide sales records
[edit]Is it true that Oasis has sold over 90 million records worldwide? If so, then Oasis should be added to the list of best-selling music artists worldwide. 2601:407:4181:4260:8C55:D86C:6B6E:B6CE (talk) 00:39, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
- Since Oasis selling over 90 million records worldwide was proven wrong, what about Oasis selling over 70 or 75 million records worldwide, as said by two different sources? I think people who look at this article (like me) are very confused about this. Does anyone know how to erase this confusion over this issue? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:407:4181:4260:810F:EF24:92C8:AAA6 (talk) 01:56, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
Already a band called Oasis before them
[edit]Was there any legal situation about them using the name, with Peter Skellern already having a band called Oasis? Middle More Rider (talk) 02:34, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
