Someone has suggested 1989 events in Mauritania and Senegal be merged into this article. I would suggest that while these topics contain much overlap, the internal ethnic conflict and refugee crisis of the 1989 events in Mauritania and Senegal might be renamed to show the existing focus of that article is on Mauritania, and the events which caused a massive refugee outpouring into Senegal. This article, the Mauritania鈥揝enegal_Border_War is one consequence of that crisis, but only one, and should remain a separate article. Should the other article be renamed 1989 events in Mauritania or 1989 ethnic conflict in Mauritania or 1989 Mauritanian refugee crisis? Suggestions and difference of opinion can only help here!

Take a look at fr:Conflit_s茅n茅galo-mauritanien, the French language equivalent of this. It is short and does not fully cover the territory, but it is a neutral, well referenced, start. A complete wipe-out of the current English article and its replacement by a translation of the French article would be a good start. Below is the quite useful bibliography of the French language article (which contains English language sources).
