Calling people genocide deniers now with wiki links.
Someone who knows how to wiki should get this page changed: https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uyghur_genocide
Why? Because the original page is no longer "Uyghur Genocide". They changed it to "Persecution of Uyghurs in China" but this simple.wikipedia URL remained the same. Remove the "simple" from the URL and you'll see what I mean.
Wikipedia editors settled on the fact it was not a genocide and changed the name.
Should also really not be "part of a series on genocide" and should not have that section at the top saying shit about xinjiang genocide either.
Simple Wikipedia should be launched into orbit and never seen again, absolutely bullshit part of the site that seems to only exist to drive the propaganda harder.
Tbh I use it for stuff that's not politically contentious to get a tldr of things sometimes. You shouldn't be using wikipedia to learn about anything politically contentious anyway
i do it to see where my reactionary takes are, i may not know what is right but i can be pretty confident im wrong when i see it espoused a different way
Done. I've changed the title in line with the English Wikipedia. I know it's still BS but that's probably the best I can do and actually have it stick.
I haven't really changed the article as I'm not that familiar with Simple English's requirements (you're supposed to use only some of the most common words?) but y'all feel free. Unlike the English Wikipedia article this one isn't yet protected.
