Title

I'm not sure that this article's current title ("Second Republic of the Congo Civil War") is really viable. I cannot find any WP:RS that uses this terminology to describe the conflict. I suggest a much neater solution would be to retitle this Republic of the Congo Civil War (1997–99) and retitle the other Republic of the Congo Civil War (1993). The page Republic of the Congo Civil War would become a disambig page. Does anyone object? —Brigade Piron (talk) 23:04, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
