[[Best selling book]]s

I read somewhere that "don quixote" has sold more copies than "A tale of two cities". If its true it should be changed accordingly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Abhinav0908 (talk • contribs) date

:Hi, thanks for the heads up. If you find where you read it, please come back and tell us; we can't change it without a source. 184.147.147.28 (talk) 15:12, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

:The fifth sentence in List of best-selling books has someting to say about this. (Note also that Don Quixote is placed in a special "No reliable sales figures" table in that article.) Deor (talk) 14:14, 3 May 2014 (UTC)
