While everything is sourced here, none of the listed sources demonstrate that the album is notable, or even that it exists in the first place. versacespace talk to me 04:29, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: it doesn't "exist" yet because it hasn't been released. dx talk 13:10, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Dylxpedia: I've already noted that it hasn't been released. It also doesn't have a release date, doesn't have an a cover art, doesn't even have a title, and almost all of the references have nothing to do with the album, only the songs in them. This is why we have drafts. versacespace talk to me 04:01, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

In that case, I'd support merging this article into Rosalía (singer) instead of deleting it completely. dx talk 12:37, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: It must be admitted that most of this article simply duplicates large parts of the sections "2018–2020: El Mal Querer and international recognition" and "2020–present: Third studio album and collaborations" in the main Rosalia article, and most of it is about one-off collaboration singles in the past three years, and very little is actually about the album itself, so merging any additional information to those two sections might be a possibility. Given that her last album topped the Spanish and Billboard Latin charts, won the Grammy Award for Best Latin Rock Album, and was included in the most recent update of Rolling Stone's Top 500 Albums of All Time, there's no doubt that this album will be notable when it eventually comes out. But at the moment, not even the title is confirmed. Richard3120 (talk) 13:33, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete because it is is not a thing. If Rosalía is in fact developing a new album that process can be, and already is, described in the relevant historical sections of her article (see the comment by Richard3120 above). There should be no album article until the album exists with a confirmed release date, title, and tracklist. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:37, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Per above reasoning, WP:CRYSTALBALL and WP:TOOSOON. Chirota (talk) 18:34, 8 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:MUSIC. The album isn't released yet and the information appears sparse and fragmented. GNG is a far cry. The content of the article isn't even centered all that much around the album but deals with singles. Singles =/= album. — Alalch Emis (talk) 17:43, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. Fails WP:MUSIC. Riteboke (talk) 08:27, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
