==Spelling of first name of author Clodfelter== |
|
|
Hello fellow Wikipedians - Recently I made to this article, correcting the first name of the author of the cited book ''Warfare and Armed Conflicts: A Statistical Reference to Casualty and Other Figures, 1500–2000'' from Mich'''ae'''l to Mich'''ea'''l. Shortly thereafter, my edit was undone. The spelling of Clodfelter's first name can be verified at , among other on-line sources. My preference would be for someone else to review this edit so as to not give the appearance of edit-warring. |

== Homo erectus statement does not seem to be credibly sourced == |
|
|
The statement "Archaeological evidence shows that Homo erectus lived in the region now known as Myanmar as early as 750,000 years ago, with no more erectus finds after 75,000 years ago" cites a paper titled "Prehistory to Protohistory of Myanmar: A Perspective of Historical Geography" from source "". This paper makes the claim that "Homo erectus had lived in Myanmar 750,000 years ago", but did not cite any sources. This means that, although that Wiki statement was cited, the cited source may not be credible and did not cite the source of their statement. Also, the "" entry cited "Columbia Chronologies of Asian History and Culture." However, that article states that "It is agreed that early hominids (Homo erectus) were present in Myanmar as early as 400,000 B.C." Unfortunately, that article did not cite their source for that information too. Not only do the two cited sources conflict with each other on the dates (one article states 750,000 BC, and the other states 400,000 BC), both articles did not cite their source of stating those comments. |

== Rohingya genocide == |
|
On February 1, 2021, military rule was seized again, returning the power to an authoritarian system and reversing the transition to democracy that Myanmar had seen since 2010. The country can be classified as either a closed autocracy or an electoral autocracy depending on the elections that the military is planning to hold in 2024. The military establishment plans to hold elections as a way to transition the country out of post-coup conflict and to consolidate their political dominance. However, the junta has enacted laws in preparation for these elections that restrict the voting power of the citizens. These laws include: requiring voting political parties to register at least 100,000 members within three months of registration and banning parties that are declared “terrorist,” by the military, which represents any of their opponents. |
|
|
Additionally, the military rule has extended to local levels. Officials in central-level departments and local administrations were replaced with bureaucrats appointed by the military. Additionally, officials of villages and wards, which were previously elected by citizens, are now chosen by military-appointed township councils. |

I noticed that the history section largely jumps from 2016 to 2020 without mentioning the Rohingya persecution in 2017, which seems a notable event that got a lot of international attention, at a minimum resulted in mass migration, etc. Is there a reason it wouldn't be appropriate to mention here? -] (]) 08:32, 28 October 2024 (UTC) |

The Freedom House rating for democracy scores Myanmar at 9/60 in 2022, with a score of 0/40 for political rights and 9/60 for civil liberties. This exhibits a decline from 2021, where Freedom House scored Myanmar at 13/40 for political rights and 15/60 for civil liberties. ] (]) 01:23, 4 March 2023 (UTC) |

:However, even within the aforementioned section, the "2013 onwards" seems to have minimal commentary on the 2016-2017 period. At the beginning of the genocide allegations section, there is a "see also" link to "2016–17 Rohingya persecution in Myanmar" (which is not the current name of the linked article - I'd think we should link to the current name regardless rather than engaging in a separate debate) but those events aren't really mentioned much in the "2013 onwards" section of this article. |

::@] I fully agree with everything said here. The genocide of the Rohingya is far too notable and significant to be confined to only one small section of this article. I also noticed that the topic of Rohingya refugees is mentioned in Demographics> Ethnic groups, but it had no word of refugees past 1991. To rectify this, I added this sentence: "Since August 2017, an estimated 23,000-43,700 Rohingya have been killed in the ongoing ], and another 730,000 have fled to Bangladesh.", with three added sources. (Hopefully it doesn't get reverted by some genocide denier, ugh.) Regarding your concern about the "see also" link, it appears as though someone thankfully changed it to "Rohingya genocide" to match the page title (unless you're the one who did that, in which case nice!!) Thank you for pointing all this out, by the way - it's really important stuff. ] (]) 11:39, 30 October 2024 (UTC) |
