• The effect of terror on the mind → Terror management theory  ( talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ retarget/ delete ] 

I'm not sure it's appropriate to redirect from this phrase to a single theory on the psychology of terror (really just fear in this context), especially considering that this theory is given only one sentence in the article Fear. Concerns that come to mind to me are whether this is giving too much prominence to a single theory, and whether there is a possibility for confusion due to the use of the word terror, as readers could potentially be looking for an article on the effects of terrorism or Terror (politics). _signed, Rosguill ^talk 23:44, 25 May 2019 (UTC) reply

Created alongside several other redirects from similar terms to this target, this one is a bridge too far IMO, as the redirect title doesn't mention floods, and an internet search suggests that this term is more commonly used to refer to fire hazards (even dictionary [2]).

These terms do not appear to refer to the same type of yoga position––"Uttitha bandhasana" is not mentioned in the target, and searching online returned results suggesting that Uttitha bandhasana is a different position. I would suggest deleting unless someone is aware of a more appropriate target. _signed, Rosguill ^talk 22:54, 25 May 2019 (UTC) reply

• Delete as it isn't even spelled correctly and doesn't have a corresponding article or not even mentioned at the current target. If it were just for the term Utthita, then it could at least redirect to List of asanas which has a glossary of those terms. AngusWOOF ( bark • sniff) 02:32, 26 May 2019 (UTC) reply

Delete, and I beg to differ on various fronts. Utthita bandhasana (spelt correctly) is indeed a variant of Setu Bandha, but the name is rarely used. Please let's NEVER redirect anything to List of asanas, I spent ages removing absurd redirects from there. If anyone can find a single reasonable source for Utthita bandhasana, then I'll create that as a redirect and add a one-line description at Setu Bandha Sarvangasana#Variations. As it is, I think delete (spelling mistake or no: popular spelling mistakes are well worth redirecting) is the only option. Chiswick Chap ( talk) 08:46, 26 May 2019 (UTC) reply

WP:XY. The two songs were released as a double a-side, so this is a plausible search term, but neither target is preferable to the other.

Weird about the girl, but I think what she had - mitochondrial disease - is something else. Guy H.

Not a valid search term, because this “2019 border closure” doesn’t exist. Never happened. This was originally a short article which was AfD’ed as “delete”. See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2019 United States Border closure After it was deleted, the original author recreated it as a redirect to National Emergency Concerning the Southern Border of the United States. (He had suggested that redirect at the AfD, but nobody seconded it). The reason the article was deleted is that there was no such thing. A border closure was something Trump mentioned as a possibility, but he quickly dropped the idea and never took any steps to implement it. This is not even fake news; it’s no news at all. A search for the term finds no sources, only Wikipedia and mirrors. It isn’t even mentioned at our target article. It is a completely invalid redirect.
