{"source":"manifold","id":"th5tAtSZl0","ticker":"th5tAtSZl0","slug":"by-when-will-wikipedia-stop-conside-SLnOuOU6PA","title":"By when will Wikipedia stop considering Gaza a genocide?","description":"Resolution Criteria\n\nThis market will resolve when Wikipedia stops identifying Gaza as a genocide for a 168 hour period.  Then all dates after the current date resolve YES and all dates before resolve NO.\n\nSpecifically, the market will resolve if:\n\nThe English Wikipedia article currently titled \"Gaza genocide\" is either deleted, renamed to a title that does not include \"genocide\" (e.g., \"Gaza conflict,\" \"Israel-Hamas war allegations,\" or similar without the term \"genocide\" directly asserting it), or its lead section (the first paragraph) is fundamentally altered to remove the assertion that the conflict is a genocide.\n\nThis needs to hold for a week.  A quick reversion won't count.\n\nThe primary source for resolution will be the English Wikipedia, specifically the \"Gaza genocide\" article (or its successor) and the \"List of genocides\" article. A link to the article can be found at:\n\nhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaza_genocide\n\nIf English Wikipedia is deleted then this will trigger resolution.\n\nBackground\n\nWikipedia currently hosts a dedicated English article titled \"Gaza genocide,\" which defines the conflict as \"the ongoing, intentional, and systematic destruction of the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip carried out by Israel during the Gaza war\". This title was adopted following a community vote among Wikipedia contributors, replacing an earlier title that included \"allegations of genocide.\" The decision was based on a perceived consensus among scholars and human rights organizations, according to editor discussions. Additionally, the \"Gaza genocide\" is listed on Wikipedia's \"List of genocides\" page.\n\nConsiderations\n\nWikipedia's content, especially on highly controversial and ongoing events, is subject to continuous review and debate by its global volunteer editor community. Changes to article titles, content, or the inclusion in lists such as \"List of genocides\" typically reflect a consensus reached through Wikipedia's internal editorial processes, which can be dynamic and influenced by evolving external discourse and available sourcing. Different language versions of Wikipedia may also present varying narratives and classifications for the same event, reflecting independent editing communities and diverse source availability.\n\nWikipedia currently cites an academic consensus that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. The ICJ has not reached yet a final verdict, but as of writing according to Manifold there is about a 20% chance that it will determine Israel committed genocide.\n\nI WILL NOT BET IN THIS MARKET!\n\nThanks to the AI for helping to create this. Anyone is welcome to add new answers.  See https://manifold.markets/nathanwei/by-when-will-wikipedia-stop-conside for a market that also requires the war to removed from the \"list of genocides\".\n\nUpdate 2025-10-18 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): For each date option, the market will check by that date if Wikipedia has stopped saying the Gaza War is a genocide. If Wikipedia has stopped calling it a genocide by that date, the market resolves NO for that date option.\n\nUpdate 2025-10-18 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): Important clarification on timing: The market checks if Wikipedia has stopped calling it a genocide BY each date option, not ON that date. If Wikipedia stops calling it a genocide before a date option (even if they later start calling it a genocide again), that date option will resolve YES.\n\nUpdate 2025-10-19 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): The required period for Wikipedia to stop identifying Gaza as a genocide has been changed from 24 hours to 168 hours (one week). The article must be deleted, renamed without \"genocide,\" or have its lead section fundamentally altered to remove the genocide assertion, and this change must hold for a full week before the market resolves.\n\nUpdate 2025-10-19 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): Temporary Wikipedia downtime (e.g., due to a Carrington event or server issues) will not trigger resolution. The market requires the Wikipedia article itself to be deleted, renamed, or fundamentally altered - not merely temporarily inaccessible.\n\nUpdate 2025-10-19 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): If the Gaza genocide article's lead section is changed to resemble the Tamil genocide article's lead section (which frames events as \"refers to the framing of various systematic acts... as acts of genocide\" rather than asserting it is a genocide), this would satisfy the resolution criteria. The article does not need to be retitled - a fundamental alteration of the lead section to remove the direct assertion that the conflict is a genocide (while potentially keeping the article title) would be sufficient for resolution.\n\nUpdate 2025-10-20 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): If Wikipedia ceases to exist entirely, this will trigger resolution. However, temporary downtime (e.g., server issues, temporary unavailability) will not trigger resolution.\n\nUpdate 2025-10-20 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): If Wikipedia ceases to exist entirely, this will trigger resolution and the market will resolve as if Wikipedia stopped calling it a genocide (all dates after the cessation resolve YES).\n\nUpdate 2025-10-20 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): If the \"Gaza genocide\" article becomes like the \"Tamil genocide\" article (which frames events as contested rather than asserting genocide occurred), this would trigger resolution. The article does not need to assert that genocide definitively did not occur - framing it as contested or alleged (similar to how Tamil genocide is currently presented) is sufficient to meet the resolution criteria.\n\nUpdate 2025-10-20 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): The Tamil genocide Wikipedia article is an example of Wikipedia not considering something a genocide. If the Gaza genocide article becomes similar to the Tamil genocide article (framing events as contested rather than asserting genocide occurred), this would trigger resolution.\n\nUpdate 2025-10-21 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): The answer option \"It will always consider Gaza a Genocide\" will be resolved N/A because it is not a date. The market requires date-based answer options to resolve according to the stated criteria (\"all dates after the current date resolve YES and all dates before resolve NO\").\n\nUpdate 2025-10-23 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): The answer option \"It will always consider Gaza a Genocide\" has been resolved N/A because it is not a date. The market requires date-based answer options to resolve according to the stated criteria.\n\nUpdate 2025-10-23 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): The \"Tamil genocide\" article is an example of how Wikipedia frames contested events. The Tamil genocide article uses language like \"refers to the framing of...\" rather than asserting genocide occurred. If the Gaza genocide article adopts similar framing language (referring to \"the framing\" of events as genocide rather than asserting it is a genocide), this would satisfy the resolution criteria even if the article title remains \"Gaza genocide.\"\n\nUpdate 2025-10-23 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): If Wikipedia ceases to exist and is later revived and then edited, this could affect resolution. The market does not automatically resolve based on Wikipedia's permanent cessation - it's possible for Wikipedia to be revived later and then edited, which would be considered for resolution purposes.\n\nUpdate 2025-10-23 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): The creator clarified that there are two separate markets with different resolution criteria:\n\nThis market resolves YES if the Gaza genocide article's lead section stops asserting genocide in encyclopedic voice (similar to how Tamil genocide article uses \"refers to the framing of\" language), OR if the article is deleted/renamed without \"genocide\"\n\nThe other market (https://manifold.markets/nathanwei/by-when-will-wikipedia-stop-conside) has stricter criteria and would NOT resolve for a Tamil genocide-style framing\n\nThe creator offered to create a third market specifically about retitling the page only, indicating this current market's criteria are broader than just a title change.","image":null,"icon":null,"active":true,"closed":false,"start_date":"2025-10-18T21:15:18.761000Z","end_date":"2050-01-01T22:13:00Z","closed_time":null,"volume":5307.055617718744,"volume_24hr":1.0,"volume_24h_change":null,"normalized_vol_24hr":0.371620237827301,"normalized_volume":27.58507537841797,"liquidity":250.0,"open_interest":null,"categories":["World"],"tags":["israel","palestine","gaza","arabisraeli-conflict","israelhamas-conflict-2023"],"synthetic":false,"is_group":false,"group_key":null,"parent_event_id":null,"probability":null,"spread":null,"top_outcome":"Before
