I have cleaned up this article again because it seems that a bunch of my edits were incorrectly reverted. Here are my edits:

• Per Wikipedia:Manual of Style, for quotations, use only quotation marks (for short quotations) or block quoting (for long ones), not italics.
• remove date links
• remove repeated links (e.g., "genocide") and links to plain English words per WP:REPEATLINK (e.g., nation, disease)
• remove boldface per WP:BOLDFACE
• spell out acronyms (like PKK) on first use per WP:MOS
• use a person's first and last name the first time he/she is mentioned (Tito, Obote, Mao)

Ground Zero (talk) 29 November 2010

Can I edit this source? I really want to contribute to this wikipage.

At the moment it is stated that the "CPPCG does not include the elimination of political groups (because that group was removed at the behest of Stalin) ". While this maybe should just show the opinion of Judge Carlos Rozanski, it does not represent the more diverse historical facts. Actually, several states opposed the deletion of "political groups" from the convention and the finally successful attempt was led by Iran, Uruguay, and Egypt.^[1] Therefore, I think, that the Stalin part should be removed and the discussion of whose fault it is that "political groups" are not part of the Convention should be transferred to the Convention-article.

Hello,

I'd just like to point out that the section on prosecutions of genocide perpetrators seems to have been copied in Genocides in history (1946 to 1999. Should we remove or modify the section on that sub-article? Or should we let it be? 204.13.204.194 (talk) 22:00, 8 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I would suggest adding the Nanking massacre, and the the first nuclear bombs dropped on Japan as genocide. These were major historic events. 2001:569:FB65:EB00:461:D235:7867:19B4 (talk) 22:04, 8 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. EggRoll97 ^(talk) 00:19, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This page lacks an unavoidable reference to the acts of genocides committed by Timur during 35 years, including systematic ethnic cleansing and execution of entire populations, such as in Delhi and Middle East. According to Timur's contemporary chronicles and modern Historians, most victims were killed because of their religion beliefs, including Hindi, Buddhist, Armenian, Georgian, Greek Orthodox, etc. Estimates vary between 17 and 20 Million victims: 17 Million vicitms according to "The History of the Mongol Conquests" of John Joseph Saunders (1971) and the "Armies of the Ottoman Turks, 1300–1774." of David Nicolle (1983). 20 Million victims according to "Tamerlane: Sword of Islam, Conqueror of the World" of Justin Marozzi (2004). — Preceding unsigned comment added by As97wiki (talk • contribs) 21:42, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Add a subsection on the current South Africa vs Israel issue at the International Court of Justice. There is already a wikipedia page on this. I have a possible paragraph to add at section https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genocides_in_history#International_Court_of_Justice

1. 1. Israel

On December 29, 2023, South Africa filed an Application instituting proceedings against Israel with the ICJ alleging that Israel had violated its obligations under the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (the "Genocide Convention") during its 2023 offensive in the Gaza Strip.^[1] South Africa's standing is based on the *erga omnes partes* nature of the Genocide Convention, which allows and obligates States Parties to the convention to take measures to prevent and punish the crime of genocide. South Africa requested indication of provisional measures by the ICJ, including that Israel end its military operations, to "protect against further, severe and irreperable harm to the rights of the Palestinian people under the Genocide Convention", triggering an urgent preliminary hearing. Public hearings on the provisional measures question were held on January 11 (oral arguments by South Africa) and January 12 (oral arguments by Israel), respectively.^[2] Hovsepig (talk) 06:30, 15 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
