Wikipedia's article on the Guatemalan genocide, community-edited, drawing together the UN-sponsored Commission for Historical Clarification's 1999 findings, the Ball, Kobrak and Spirer demographic reconstruction of the 1981 to 1983 death toll, and the 2013 domestic genocide trial of Efrain Rios Montt and its subsequent annulment. Used here for the trial's procedural history and the demographic estimate, both well corroborated across independent reporting and consistent with the Commission's own published findings.
Facts
Assessment
Reliability TierA community-edited reference article rather than a peer-reviewed work; used here for well corroborated, multiply-sourced procedural and demographic facts (the CEH commission's findings, the Ball, Kobrak and Spirer demographic study, and the 2013 trial's public record) that are consistent across independent academic and journalistic reporting, not for any contested interpretive claim.
