Abbreviation
AES seems to be more popular even in English but there is at least one source that uses ASS https://www.economist.com/the-world-this-week/2023/09/21/politics Inteloff (talk) 14:28, 8 December 2023 (UTC)
ASS
@Bkonrad The abbrevation used in the media is ASS [1] [2] [3], not AoSS. Scu ba (talk) 19:02, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
- OK, thanks for providing sources. I had noticed that the second source referenced in the article used AoSS and at the time, I did not see any other of the current references use ASS. older ≠ wiser 20:21, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
Alliance vs Confederation
Some other language versions of Wikipedia has separate articles for each. Kaihsu (talk) 11:27, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
- I haven't seen a source that has the parties to the Alliance of Sahel States call themselves the Confederation of Sahel States. For all we know they could be the Alliance of Sahel States Confederation or some other naming convention. Doyna Yar (talk) 12:52, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Doyna Yar: No reason to split. See here: "Indeed, they adopted the treaty establishing a Confederation between Burkina Faso, the Republic of Mali and the Republic of Niger called the “Alliance of Sahel States” Confederation, abbreviated AES Confederation."

- I would support the article to change its name to "Confederation of Sahel States". Is the name "Alliance of Sahel States" the official name of the state? Zyxrq (talk) 18:27, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
- We could also change the Wikipedia articles name to "Sahel States" and leave the official name of the confederation in the article itself. Zyxrq (talk) 18:39, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
- It is not the official name. Panam2014 (talk) 21:06, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
