reorganize content
I want to begin reorganizing content from this and South Sudan internal conflict (2011–present). As it stands it's nearly impossible to make any sense of context, continuity, and differences between the regions and groups. This IMO results from and contributes to the broad perception of the whole region as an undifferentiated sump of wanton violence. My initial suggestions are: I look forward better suggestions from all and to a reasoned and constructive discussion. Regards, Keitsist (talk) 19:59, 29 March 2013 (UTC)
 * 1) This article will be kept an overview of the series of conflicts. It will maintain coverage of state-proxy militia relationships and similar
 * 2) The individual conflicts will be separated out; for example Darfur content will go in that article and new pages will be made for the distinct Abyei, Murle etc. fights.
 * 3) Redundant content from  South Sudan internal conflict (2011–present) will be eliminated and the remainder similarly distributed


 * As discussed on my talk page I agree with you regarding a reorganisation. One is long overdue and my knowledge of the situation isn't enough to start it.  Perhaps you can come up with a list of separate articles you can see being split off from this one.  We can then create sandboxes as subpages of this talk space to use as works in progress whilst we combine information from this article and the internal conflict article.  We could use another subpage to rewrite this article as an overview and I can history merge them together when done - Dumelow (talk) 22:51, 29 March 2013 (UTC)

Improve or delete!
This article is essentially a timeline of armed clashes in Sudan and South Sudan, there is no attempt at a common arc or theme, nor is there information here that can't be found in other, more specific articles (like War in Darfur, Sudan internal conflict (2011–present), and South Sudan internal conflict (2011–present)).

 * Aye, this timeline format is not valuable. I think it comes from "drive by" edits made by well-intentioned editors posting a recent event without seeking to put it into context because they don't understand any of it. See the multiple attempts to remedy this at Talk:South Sudan internal conflict (2011–present). I would prefer archiving this list somewhere until its contents is integrated into the other articles, rather than nuking it now. Keitsist (talk) 08:05, 3 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Sounds good to me. Charles Essie (talk) 23:57, 3 November 2013 (UTC)

Merge
This page should be merged into South Sudan internal conflict (2011–present), Sudan internal conflict (2011–present), Sudan – South Sudan Border War, and War in Darfur, because all this page really is a timeline of random clashes that are covered much more extensively in the above articles.
