 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Merge with Sino-Vietnamese War (disambiguation) to make sure the DAB page has all relevant entries, then move the DAB page to this title, which is the base title. Patar knight - chat/contributions 02:38, 28 August 2017 (UTC)

 * Merge Sino-Vietnamese War (disambiguation) into this, because this article has more detail than the dab article. I agree that we do not need both.  Peterkingiron (talk) 14:18, 3 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Merge, as stated above; non-needed redundant content fork. Kierzek (talk) 18:11, 4 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Merge as separation is not necessary, however Keep a summary of this content to lead off the disambiguation. Burroughs&#39;10 (talk) 05:26, 10 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Merge but it's a little more complicated. There's actually three titles involved here.  We're talking about Sino-Vietnamese wars (plural) here.  There's also Sino-Vietnamese War (singular) which is a detailed article about the 1979 conflict, and Sino-Vietnamese War (disambiguation) which covers several millennia.  So, I think merge this into Sino-Vietnamese War (disambiguation) just to make sure we've got complete coverage, and redirect this title to there.  However, I would not keep the summary text from here, since that's specific to one particular conflict, and seems kind of WP:OR-ish.  I'll take a shot at merge and cleanup now.  -- RoySmith (talk) 14:19, 10 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Ugh, this is even more complicated than I thought. There's also Chinese domination of Vietnam.  And, looking at all these various pages, it's clear that there's multiple names for some of these conflicts (and, names of wars often have political influence, so it's hard to tell which is the best name).  So, I think I'm going to leave the merging to somebody who's more of a subject matter expert than I am.  -- RoySmith (talk) 14:45, 10 September 2017 (UTC)
