Cambodia To-do:

Let us work in the best reference and presentation of archaeological sites of Cambodia beyond Angkor like Sambor Prei Kuk, Angkor Borei (Takeo), etc.

Should disambiguate Republican Party for Democracy and Renewal and generally try to link up social conscience with right-wing values.

I'm looking for the best picture or any informations about the KAF's U-6 (Beaver). It seem that the KAF had 3 aircrafts. But in 1971, during the viet cong's sapper attack at the Pochentong Air Base,at least 1 Beaver was destroyed.In 1972 at leat 1 Beaver was refurbished with a new engine. http://www.khmerairforce.com/AAK-KAF/AVNK-AAK-KAF/Cambodia-Beaver-KAF.JPG

Pov Problems

I've bolded the biased parts of the section I call POV: The war was over, but the terrible dreams of the Khmer Rouge were about to come to fruition in the newly-proclaimed Democratic Kampuchea. Khmer Rouge troops immediately began to forcibly empty the capital, driving the population into the countryside and killing thousands in the process. The Year Zero had begun.

Citations needed!

This comment "Following Pol Pot's invasion of Vietnamese territory in 1979 (with Chinese and American aid, which consisted of supplies and weapons)," definitely needs to be cited, as considering China was a major ally of North Vietnam and America had passed legislation keeping them out of SE Asia (not to forget the complete cutting of ties between Cambodia and the Western World), it seems extremely unlikely they would have directly helped the KR. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.189.135.106 (talk) 15:40, 15 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Article Merge

I don't agree with the (anonymous) suggestion that the article should be merged with one of the history articles. DK as a party was around for a lot longer than 1975-79. I've made this point over at Cambodia under Pol Pot as well. If there are no objections, I'll lose the ugly merge template. Paxse 18:17, 4 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've just killed a second merge tag - what is it about this article that says - MERGE ME! Paxse 17:42, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The article is very short, and explains nothing about the country which the larger Cambodia under Pol Pot doesn't. I added the tag because I recently added the former country infobox to several of the articles for the former Cambodian states, and found two for this period. The Pol Pot one is much longer and I don't see why there should be a stub sized one here as well. Also, excuse me not saying this beforehand, it was two in the morning when I added the tag and I must have forgotten. Bnynms 17:52, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, but I don't understand the answer - because the article is short it should be merged with an article on a similar (but not identical) topic? My point is that WP:MERGE says that you should place the merge tag on both source and destination pages and then explain your reasons on the talk page. So how about checking the talk page next time to save us both this mucking about? Paxse 19:03, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

(sigh) Oh joy, another merge tag - Why me Lord? Paxse 11:57, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What do you mean, why you? I agree this should be merged, this article is a stub identical in scope with Cambodia under Pol Pot (1975-1979). If no one but Paxse disagrees, I'm merging this page to CuPP. - (), 15:47, 21 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
...in fact, most of this article doesn't even deal with Democratic Kampuchea but with Cambodia under Vietnamese occupation (1979-1989). - (), 16:05, 21 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This is an article about a state that existed between 1975 and 1979 and was also the recognised name for Cambodia by the rest of the world. It should be the main article. Cambodia under Pol Pot is a subset of this. Why not merge the other article into this one?--AssegaiAli (talk) 19:45, 16 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This article doesn't inform

This article doesn't inform or rather misinforms. Democratic Kampuchea wasn't a Socialist republic. The article doesn't contain even the number of people. Xx236 10:14, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
