"depopulated"

edit

I just want to point out that "depopulated" is an incredibly vague term. It does not describe what happened to the people. Although in the history section it makes it slightly more clear, it seems like the way the article is written attempts to downplay the events that led to the "depopulation" of the village. I would encourage those who are able to edit to tell things the way they are. 71.85.26.41 (talk) 13:09, 7 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

I agree; "depopulated" is indeed an incredibly vague term; that is why we can all agree to use it 🫤
It is a compromise. The pro-Israeli side (and virtually all Israeli newspapers?) typically use the word "abandoned", (even when it is quite ridiculous to do so, ie in connection with Deir Yassin). The pro-Palestinian side typically use the words "ethnic cleansing"; words which tend to cause an extremely negative reaction with the Pro-Israelis. This compromise makes us avoid endless and useless edit-wars. Cheers, Huldra (talk) 22:39, 7 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
