Sudanian / Sudanese
editI added the following to the article but it was just deleted:
(The adjectival form of this term is "Sudanian" as distinct from that of the country of Sudan which is "Sudanese." Hence, one can refer to Sudanian savannas, Sahelo-Sudanian species, etc.)
...I think this is a valid and useful piece of information that belongs in such an encyclopedic article - several years ago I worked in an office where there were documents mentioning "Sudanese __ zone" which is technically incorrect and also confusing to readers. Please don't say that it belongs only in Wiktionary or someplace. What is the appropriate way to include this info in this article?--A12n 21:05, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
- Just found some other articles using the term Sudanian in the title - Sudanian savanna & East Sudanian savanna. There are others using the term in the text. Would some sort of merging of articles be appropriate? I crosslinked this article and Sudanian savanna.--A12n 21:23, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
Merge tag
editThis was tagged for a merge in June 2008, without any explanation that I can see, and no discussion opened or justification given here, so I've removed it. Moonraker12 (talk) 11:06, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
 | The contents of the Sudan (region) page were merged into Sudanian savanna. For the contribution history and old versions of the merged article please see its history. |
Re-write
editThe article seems to be in error as it stands; the atlas I'm looking at labels the whole area south of the Sahara as "The Sudan", which includes the Sahel and the savanna areas south of that. And there's no references on the page to explain the current content. So I'm re-writing it accordingly. I trust that's OK with everyone. Moonraker12 (talk) 11:11, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
