This template is intended as an overview of the South African Border War in general. Please, in order to keep it readable:

Do NOT add this template to every related article (e.g. Sam Nujoma). It should only go on core South African Border War articles.
Do NOT include every single battle or operation; that is for {{Campaignbox South African Border War}}.
Do NOT include connected articles on overly detailed or small subtopics. This template is focused on the most general overview possible.
The template deliberately omits people, due to the enormous number of soldiers, politicians, and activists from multiple countries who participated in the war. References to the war are adequately linked to in most relevant biographical articles.
