The result was delete. Valid concerns appear to exist about redirecting, so I didn't do this Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 07:25, 2 May 2019 (UTC)

There are no sources cited, and I can't find any information about this single from a reliable source. It was not on any major charts, and the article only claims that it is important because it helped get attention to the group from people in the music business. That does not make it important for itself, and its name is not even on the wiki page for the band.

- Redirect to Stackridge (album), unless other editors think the redirect might confuse readers looking for Dora the Explorer. Richard3120 (talk) 19:00, 24 April 2019 (UTC)
- I guess technically "Dora La Exploradora" translates to Dora the Female Explorer, but that's a fairly sexist translation.Naddruf (talk) 22:23, 24 April 2019 (UTC)
- Delete - I'm not so sure a redirect to the album is wise due to possible confusion with the cartoon character. The coincidental title may have inspired the creation of this song article in the first place, but the song itself is non-notable across the board. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 13:48, 25 April 2019 (UTC)
- I agree with your reservations about the redirect, which is why I felt it was worth mentioning to see what other editors thought. I have no objections to deletion if this is the case. Richard3120 (talk) 18:07, 26 April 2019 (UTC)
- Delete - as the single didn't chart it is not notable and doesn't meet for Wikipedia:Notability (music) singles, "That a single is an officially released recording by a notable musician or ensemble is not by itself reason for a standalone article." - Epinoia (talk) 01:21, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
