Unlike the Hinton info above, I am unwilling to strike this section under WP:BOLD without discussion. However, I have some pretty strong feelings here: This entire section appears to be WP:UNDUE and WP:FRINGE. The article itself, and virtually all RS that I've read, make it clear that the Khmer Rouge directly targeted the Cham and the Vietnamese- and Chinese-heritage Cambodians as ethnicities for extermination (the classical definition of genocide). The treatment of cosmopolitan, educated, Catholic, and bourgeois Cambodians fall directly into the modern, international definition of genocide as well, regardless of one commentator's hair-splitting apologia.

The Genocide article mentions this period of Khmer history 34 times, and the Cambodian Genocide article contains 221 RS, many of which appear to use the term specifically and directly. At best, this would belong in latter article, but I feel it absolutely does not belong here. Please share your thoughts. Barring some reasonable argument against such action, I'll remove the section on or after 17 June 2024. Cheers, Last1in (talk) 15:45, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Seeing no comments, I waited another few weeks just in case someone might come forth with an objection. Since no one did, I removed the material from the article today. If you don't like that, please explain why before reverting. Cheers, Last1in (talk) 12:52, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think that section is in the scope of this article anyways. I'd be surprised if you got any pushback from a policy perspective or an ideological perspective. Yue🌙 17:18, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You know, every time I think that, the flames descend. I live by the motive, "Do Not Tempt the Universe (or encyclopaedia editors)." Hence my current process of ask, wait, edit, duck and cover. :D Cheers, Last1in (talk) 18:27, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

An IP user changed the native_name value at the top of the infobox from ព្កម្ពុជា to កម្ពុជា. Can someone who reads the language please verify is this is valid and is the name used in RS? If it is not, can you please revert the edit? Cheers, Last1in (talk) 18:19, 20 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The previous name was a typo. I can't read Khmer but ព្កម្ពុជា returns zero dictionary entries. Yue🌙 20:48, 20 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In the first paragraph, "Duch" is referred to without being previously introduced as such. It's left as an exercise for the reader to find out which of the two individuals named and linked are the referred to as "Duch". Suggest adding the nickname to the appropriate person on introduction, or naming "Duch" properly in the rest of the article. A casual reader without foreknowledge isn't going to know who that is. ~2026-93808 (talk) 14:12, 5 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
