Talk:Abyei

message: This section was updated comprehensively across the past few months. Some reports (eg http://www.irinnews.org/report.aspx?ReportID=79527) are now suggesting that a resolution has been reached, so it is likely that incidents of violence will decline. I'd like to redraft this section so that it reads less like a chronology of events and is more of a summary of the past eight months. What do we think? Damian Doyle (talk) 08:04, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: That's be great if you could make it sound like it was all written at one time.  ;)  Wikipedia articles do get the classic look as one sentence gets added as a time as an event unfolds.  - BanyanTree 12:04, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Renewed violence section - rewrite possible?

message: :Abyei → Abyei (district) — to distinguish from Abyei (town). 
I think it's time we turned Abyei into a disamb page and split the content as appropriate into Abyei (town) and Abyei (district). Any objections? Akerbeltz (talk) 22:23, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: Sure.  If anyone is in a rush and wants to move it while it's still linked from the Main Page, please ask an admin to fix the link so it doesn't point to a dab page. - BanyanTree 04:18, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I think it can wait until it comes off the main page. Akerbeltz (talk) 13:10, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

text: Why is this necessary? Disambiguation pages with only two entries are not of much use, especially where one use appears much more well known than the other (as appears to be the case here). A hatnote is the usual approach where there are only two ambiguous articles. older ≠ wiser 13:22, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: There's also Abyei Province (though I'm not 100% certain if that is the same as the district) and I think the naming issue will become much more complex now that Abyei district in effect has been split. I didn't realist there was a rule, I've seen plenty of dab pages with only 2 pages on. Akerbeltz (talk) 13:44, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

text: And your proposal is fair enough.  If entities named Abyei multiply and conflict for primary status, a move might be warranted.  —  AjaxSmack  16:38, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

text: POV — The POV dispute is not resolved, still the author insist to project the area as belonging to nine Ngok Dinka chiefedoms, the fact which I dispuated long time back and provided evidence to the validity of the dispute.

thread_title: Updated Details

message: Could one spelling be consistently adhered to for Messiria and Misseriya (and possibly other spellings I have not yet come across)? That way, while reading the article, one need not wonder whether several different peoples are meant.Redav (talk) 01:40, 23 October 2022 (UTC)
