 * Redirect as to Sex strike where the incident is mentioned. I have copied a couple of references from Crossed Legs Movement and slightly expanded the suggested target. Sam Sailor Talk! 08:42, 23 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Redirect to related topic; not notable as a stand alone separate article. Kierzek (talk) 15:47, 23 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect as suggested by . As indicated in the article, the strike in Barbacoas was not the first time such a means of protest had been used in Colombia – and certainly not worldwide. The 1997 strike by girlfriends of the guerrillas is just as famous in Colombia, and the 2006 strike by girlfriends of gang members in the city of Pereira was the first time the term "crossed legs strike" was used in the Colombian media. The 2011 strike was clearly influenced by both these events and the idea for the name of the "movement" came from the 2006 strike. So it makes sense to cover these events together to indicate how the protests have developed. I can find reliable sources in Spanish in Colombian newspapers and journal publications which I can translate to support a unified article. Richard3120 (talk) 15:57, 23 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect per above. Meinnaples (talk) 15:17, 25 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Sex strike. Already seems to have been merged.  This is perfectly fine example of a notable topic that is covered in more detail at the target. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 19:42, 27 May 2016 (UTC)
