Crimes against humanity category removal

Crimes against humanity is a specific legal concept. In order to be included in the category, the event (s) must have been prosecuted as a crime against humanity, or at a bare minimum be described as such by most reliable sources. Most of the articles that were formerly in this category did not mention crimes against humanity at all, and the inclusion of the category was purely original research.

This page discusses a historical process labeled as genocide, which is an aspect of a prolonged genocide that occurs over hundreds of years, so large numbers are feasible.

est. death toll

40,000-440,000 (1859-1864) 123,000-200,000 including Ingush casualties (1944–1948) 50,000 to 130,000 in the First Chechen War (1994–1996) 30,000 to 80,000 in the Second Chechen War (1999–2009)

or in other sources

100,000-300,000 in Chechens Wars (1994-2009) ACR503 (talk) 05:56, 17 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

If you wish to discuss the casualty figures you need to provide actual specific sources for the numbers. Vaguely waving at "sources say" is no more helpful than saying "I believe the numbers should be X". -- Cdjp1 (talk) 17:01, 21 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
