Can you liberate a city that you captured, via gifting to a third party?
In Civ5 I have read there is a process to capture a city and then trade it, recapture it, and then get a liberation bonus. What are the conditions for this. Is there a waiting period that the city must be held. Does it work for non capitals?

This question is a bit old, but yes, you can liberate it after conquering+gifting. You don't need to wait for it. It also works for non-capitals. You just have to deal with the war mongering malus and other political consequences when declaring war to the third party.

You can either keep the city for your own, raze it to the ground, or Liberate it, which is the option we're most concerned with here. Liberating the city-state will act as a counter to the damaging Warmonger penalty you would usually get for a raze, or claiming the city for your own.Can you liberate a city-state?

In order to capture a city in Civ 6, you must first lay siege to the city center (the tile on which a Settler initially established the city) to formally occupy the territory.
