Democratic Kampuchea is part of WikiProject Cambodia, a project to improve all Cambodia-related articles. The WikiProject is also a part of the Counteracting systematic bias group on Wikipedia, aiming to provide a wider and more detailed coverage on countries and areas of the encyclopedia which are notably less developed than the rest. If you would like to help improve this and other Cambodia-related articles, please join the project.

I'm looking for the best picture or any informations about the KAF's U-6 (Beaver). It seem that the KAF had 3 aircrafts.
But in 1971, during the viet cong's sapper attack at the Pochentong Air Base,at least 1 Beaver was destroyed.In 1972
at leat 1 Beaver was refurbished with a new engine.

I am removing the italicised sentence under WP:BOLD (italics added): After establishing the historical and ideological context as the backdrop, Hinton delves deeper into the complexities of perpetrator motivation through using both macro- and micro-level analyses to uncover how ideology is linked to psychocultural processes. Under the Khmer Rouge, the encroachment of the public sphere into that which was once private space made constant group-level interactions. Within these spaces, cultural models such as face, shame, and honour were adapted to Khmer Rouge notions of social status and bound up with revolutionary consciousness. The italicised sentence does not actually deal with the subject of the article, Democratic Kampuchea, but with how the RS evaluated the subject. I cannot find a specific WP policy that addresses this situation, but I do not feel it is encyclopaedic wording. I am absolutely willing to be overruled on that belief, but please discuss it here before reverting. If you feel the sentence is critical to understanding Democratic Kampuchea, please explain why and (preferably) propose wording that would move the focus to the subject itself.

You should not be overruled because the lack of focus on the subject in this article is a larger problem. This article is less so about Democratic Kampuchea as a state and more so a narrative story about the events leading up to the Cambodian genocide and then an analysis of it. It's as if a major contributor read a few scholarly papers on the topic of the Cambodian genocide and decided to regurgitate it in this article. This article has no logical (specifically chronological) structure that other articles on states and polities have. Yue🌙15:40, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
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]
