 * Redirect to Maía (singer) – difficult to find any information about the album itself, but the singer is notable enough, with plenty of coverage in her home country and a Latin Grammy Award nomination. Richard3120 (talk) 20:39, 24 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Redirect sounds right. This article is a blatant advert with no RS. Agricola44 (talk) 15:33, 25 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Maía (singer). I could not find evidence of WP:GNG, though I am not sure if the language difference/barrier would effect anything in my search. Aoba47 (talk) 02:13, 26 July 2019 (UTC)
 * having lived in Colombia for ten years, I'd say it's unlikely. There's no history of music (or film) reviews in newspapers or music magazines, it's just not something the country is interested in, and they simply don't understand why anyone would be interested in someone else's (even a respected professional writer's) opinion of an album. Articles about singers or their music tend to be light puff pieces, as evidenced by the El Tiempo sources in the article for Maia herself. The only dedicated music magazine in the country is Shock, now an entirely online magazine, and it doesn't do music reviews. This is always a problem with sourcing albums outside of North America and Europe, because other countries just don't have the history of music magazines and critical writing and reviews. The only way I would say this would pass WP:NALBUM is if someone finds evidence of a certification, but as Colombia's certifying body doesn't even have a website, never mind a searchable database, it will be tough.
