COI edit request: certifications for credited albums
[edit]| The user below has a request that an edit be made to Sky van Hoff. That user has an actual or apparent conflict of interest. The requested edits backlog is very high. Please be extremely patient. There are currently 637 requests waiting for review. Please read the instructions for the parameters used by this template for accepting and declining them, and review the request below and make the edit if it is well sourced, neutral, and follows other Wikipedia guidelines and policies. |
Submitted on behalf of Sky van Hoff. For transparency, this account is operated by the article subject, so this is a conflict-of-interest request. The proposal attributes the certifications to the records rather than to van Hoff personally.
Additional catalogue figures requested for consideration:
| Metric | Figure | Public source and scope |
|---|---|---|
| Lifetime streams across the credited production and songwriting catalogue | More than 5.6 billion | SoundBetter public profile |
| Certification milestones achieved by credited releases | 72 across 13 countries: 1 Diamond, 25 Platinum, 43 Gold and 3 Silver | SoundBetter public profile; the highlighted Rammstein and Sleep Token certifications are documented below through the national agencies |
The rounded stream figure is publicly visible on SoundBetter. A Muso.ai Analytics capture supplied by the subject on 29 July 2026 displays 5,622,919,518 lifetime streams across 391 credits. Muso.ai describes its lifetime analytics as tracking streams from a creator's credited catalogue and updating the data daily.
