Genocides in history[edit]

I am reverting you good faith edit to Genocides in history because AFAICT not one of the sources claims that that brutal regime was genocidal. I noted that you wrote

Macías Nguema was captured, tried for genocide and executed a few weeks later on September 29("Equatorial Guinea". Encyclopedia of the Nations. Thomson Corporation. 2006.).

But the source given does not mention the word genocide. It says "On 3 August 1979, Macías Nguema was overthrown in a military coup led by his Spanish-trained nephew, Lt.-Col. Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo; the former president was tried shortly after the coup and executed on 29 September." --Philip Baird Shearer (talk) 17:44, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

OK I have found a verifiable source:

John B. Quigley (2006) The Genocide Convention: An International Law Analysis, Ashgate Publishing, Ltd, ISBN 0754647307. p.31,32

and will add it to what you have written rather than deleting it. :-) --Philip Baird Shearer (talk) 17:50, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
