Genocide Denial Controversy
editCanadian Institute for the Research of Genocide (IRGC) protested plans for a merger between the International Association of Genocide Scholars (IAGS) and the International Network of Genocide Scholars (INOGS). In a letter to INOGS, the IRGC warned that Prof. William Schabas, president of IAGS, is genocide denier. The letter concluded, "After due consideration and with reference to the above text, IRGC ascertains that nothing short of irreparable damage will permeate the credibility of any organization seriously concerned with genocide, who might decide to merge with this association."

Mohamed [sic] Ahmadinejad
editThe article omits the [sic] in the quote. Either the quote needs to be paraphrased or the reference to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad clarified. 184.77.68.158 (talk) 17:25, 4 February 2015 (UTC)
Lead stupid sentence
editdue to previous evidence of Schabas's alleged anti-Israel bias, a charge that Schabas denies
To criticize someone according to pre-existing evidence of his behavior, the 'evidence' being then described as an 'allegation' is inane, obviously having it both ways to get over some POV. I'll rewrite it.Nishidani (talk) 11:00, 7 February 2015 (UTC)
which critics used to claim he has conflict of interests on top of prior allegations of his bias
editIt was not critics, but, accdording to the New York Times, the Israeli government itself that made the claim of a conflict of interest. Secondly, 'on top of prior allegations of his bias', connected by the same source, needs precise referencing. If it cannot be provided, the passage must be reverted as WP:SYNTH.Nishidani (talk) 21:41, 7 February 2015 (UTC)
- Yes, I noticed that "critics". I made a change myself in the body of the text. There was a good NYT article yesterday (11 Feb), which I added with the ref name <ref name="Simons"/>. --Nbauman (talk) 18:34, 12 February 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks, also for the details of his relatives, lost to the Holocaust.Nishidani (talk) 19:56, 12 February 2015 (UTC)

editHave you ever edited Wikipedia before? Your edit profile shows a classic example of what prior (banned) editors do to reengage with the product. It may be a coincidence.Nishidani (talk) 21:44, 7 February 2015 (UTC)
