Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "中国大屠杀列表" in Chinese language version.
These methods subjected the landlords to public humiliation, and the trials also resulted in the execution of members of this class on a significant scale, perhaps a million to 2 million individuals.
Even conservative sources estimate that there were no less than 5 million victims of the land reform movement.
据估计，土改过程中约有300至500万人丧生，他们大多数是中小规模的地主，大多数是被活活打死的。
At the end of the "Grand Guignol" inside Batavia, most sources agree, 10,000 city-Chinese lost their lives, but little is said about the many more who must have perished outside the city's walls. Of the 80,000-odd Chinese in Batavia's environs prior to the extermination only around 3,000 survived.
“循化事件”中对平民进行了一场屠杀，青海分明闯下了大祸。但是，“变坏事为好事”不仅是中共一贯的策略，也是中共体制内各级官员的生存法则。只消给被屠杀的平民贴上“反革命”的标签，把事情定为“你死我活的阶级斗争”，屠杀就被合理化，涉及事件的官员就可保官位无虞。
根据以上的计算，在三年的暴力土改中，中国所谓的地主阶级的非正常死亡（被杀和自杀）人数大约高达470万人。它应当是中共建政后所有政治运动中非正常死亡人数最高的一次。这一数字，和不少长期研究中共土改的学者的估计雷同[13]。[13]: 如高王凌的〈土改的极端化〉一文指出：“土改过程中约有300至500万人丧生，他们大多数是中小规模的地主，大多数是被活活打死的”。再如土改研究学者、《乡村社会的毁灭》一书的作者谢幼田也认为，“杀人数目至少是五百余万人。”纽约：明镜出版社，2010年，第268页。
“文化大革命”指1966年5月至1976年10月在中国由毛泽东发动和领导的政治运动。

Sinologists say at least 1 million people were killed; perhaps as many as 4 million died.
