  • I've just found an article called Territorial dispute. I think border dispute and territorial dispute mean pretty much the same thing. What do you guys think? KNewman July 1, 2005 19:22 (UTC)
    • I would agree that they are the same thing. Territorial dispute has a lot of material which is redundant with various lists. (I've tagged it to this effect.) -- Beland 2 July 2005 21:29 (UTC)
It seems to me border dispute is the same type of disagreement only the usage of the term is more limited. Territorial disputes not only include border matters but also disagreements over control of islands and waterways. I vote for redirecting, but also adding this usage note to the territorial dispute page. lots of issues | leave me a message 4 July 2005 00:23 (UTC)
      • As I had the very same idea independently, and others clearly don't always make this relevant distinction, but the nomination got forgotten since june, I've taken action Fastifex 05:35, 29 September 2005 (UTC)
