I'm Polish and in my language Duch (pronounced dooh] means exactly "Ghost" so for years, when I was reading Polish newspapers and articles I thought that this was a Polish TRANSLATION of his nom de guerre. Now, to my suprise I have just discovered that Duch [pronounced roughly "Deuch" or "Diuk"] is in fact a TRANSLITERATION of some Khmer word so my question is - does this word mean something? Now I know that it doesn't mean "Ghost" for sure but is there any meaning in it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.22.27.20 ( talk) 17:01, 4 February 2012 (UTC)
I am not familiar with the Cambodia language, so I'm going to ask. Is this name capitalized correctly? English names capitalize all first letters. Example, John Jacob Smith. However, I know that not all lanugae do, so Kang Kek lew may be correct using the lowercase "lew" instead of the uppercase "Lew". So I’m asking, is this correct, or do we need to replace all the “l”’s with “L”’s. I have absolute no idea.
The article states that he was born in 1942, and that "he passed his Brevet d'Etudes Secondaire de Première in 1961 at the age of fifteen". Only one of these statements can be true. --- Sluzzelin talk 14:11, 27 July 2010 (UTC)
The image of the young Iek... doesn't look like a 17 year-old boy; maybe he's 7 ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.84.199.70 ( talk) 22:24, 20 November 2012 (UTC)
The Trial section of the article was written piecemeal as the trial was happening and there were many twists and turns. Now that we have had time for the trial and its aftermath to sink in, I think this section needs to be rewritten to read better than a chronology of dates and events. -- Thaths ( talk) 23:01, 7 November 2013 (UTC)

This Chinese name was introduced to zh.wp and en.wp in 2015. This Google search finds pre-2015 sources but very, very few.

There has been a recent spate of adding citation needed tags to every single sentence of this article. Honestly, this is passive aggressiveness couched as earnestness. I am losing my motivation to contribute to this article (which I have done significantly over the years). The calls for citation are overly aggressive, in my opinion, because:
I have read articles of how some overeager editors have driven contributors away from contributing to Wikipedia. I see a prime example of this in action in this article.
