This will be kept short and simple. While I was cooking up my massive Ichigo intelligence update, I noticed a few Bleach profiles with Genius rankings but no Genius Intelligence on their page. I was gonna do a couple, but I'll take my time so for now I wish to have the following profile updated to include Genius Intelligence:

Gin Ichimaru

1) You can Bump every 24 hours, not 1 minute.
2) Evaluating the things you mentioned with scans and explaining them with examples from the intelligence page on the wiki will help us more here.
Ok, I'll bring up some scans from their profiles on why they would have Genius Intelligence (kinda weird since they're already ranked as Genius)
 
These are straight from the intelligence section on their profiles

Tokinada: At least Genius (Tokinada is skillful enough to use many different types of Zanpakutō and can utilize their powers together, he takes countermeasures and tries to be one step ahead of his enemies. He was able to fool the royal clans and the government of the Soul Society at large after the murder of his wife and his subsequent trial. In battle, Tokinada is a genius tactician and skilled swordsman. Tokinada was able to fend off several highly trained Gotei 13 captains in swordsmanship, despite being relative to them physically)

Shunsui: Genius, Despite his laid-back attitude, Shunsui has repeatedly shown himself to be a perceptive and insightful man. According to Yamamoto, even when he was younger, Shunsui has always had an eye for seeing the true character of anyone he meets. He was also one of the few people to suspect that Aizen was hiding something. In battle, Shunsui has proven to be very adept at noticing and understanding details in an opponent's skills or attack patterns. During his battle against Chad, he quickly determined the basics behind Chad's Reiryoku blasts, warning him about those kinds of techniques, and even explaining that his energy blasts would eventually use up his life energy. Shunsui has also proven himself very persuasive. Shortly after becoming Captain-Commander, he was able to convince Central 46 to agree to all his new requests.

Gin: Genius; highly manipulative and deceptive (In his battle with Hitsugaya, Gin was able to manipulate the positions of three people so Hitsugaya would have to choose between saving his own life or Hinamori's without any visible effort), capable of simple deception by having his opponent focus on one thing to hide the true threat .

Toshiro: Perhaps the most astonishing trait of Hitsugaya is his intellect and natural talent. He is the most gifted prodigy the Soul Society has had since Gin Ichimaru, entering the Shinigami Academy on his first try despite his young age, graduating from the academy in a single year with the highest written and performance scores in each of his classes, joining the Gotei 13 shortly afterwards, and then becoming the youngest Shinigami to ever reach the rank of captain. He has been called many things due to this. Renji and Iba have called him a child genius, and Ichimaru has called him the embodiment of the "heavenly white angel that blesses Soul Society once a century". In terms of intellect, Hitsugaya is equally impressive. He was the first to suspect Ichimaru of treason, and saw that there was more to Rukia's execution than what was being said. Shunsui, one of the strongest Shinigami in history, states that because he is a genius, within 100 years, Hitsugaya could surpass him. Despite his age, Hitsugaya has great instinct and intuition in battle. He is generally aware of everything in his presence, and is also able to see through most deceptions. For example, he discerned that Gin Ichimaru was more than he seemed, although he was not yet sharp enough to realize it was all part of Aizen's plot. As a captain, he is a capable leader. He is given missions from Captain-Commander Yamamoto to lead teams into the Human World many times to deal with threats. For example, Hitsugaya led the team sent by Soul Society that reinforced Ichigo's group against the Arrancar. In battle, he has great instincts against incoming danger, such as from his reaction to Harribel's initial attack after releasing. After losing his Bankai to the Sternritter Cang Du, Hitsugaya was forced to come up with several creative and unorthodox methods of using his limited Shikai capabilities, such as combining his Zanpakutō powers with Matsumoto's Haineko to create vacuum ice blades, creating a wall made of thin, interwoven ice threads and even generating a field of icy mist.

Yhwach: Gifted, likely Genius. Yhwach is a highly intelligent man highly skilled in strategy, having secretly gathered and lead the Wandenreich to victories in Hueco Mundo without alerting the Soul Society, and maneuvering his soldiers expertly to outperform and defeat the Shinigami again and again. Yhwach is a man of highly sophisticated military strategy and is an experienced warlord. He uses his skill in leading his army to conquer several pieces of land. He has been planning his invasion of the Soul Society for a thousand years and created devices and strategies to catch the Shinigami off guard. Yhwach is skilled and experienced enough to fight with Ichibē Hyōsube, the wisest of Shinigami. The Almighty reinforces his already great intelligence with the ability to see through all futures that lie before him and act accordingly, but even then he is quite arrogant.

They all need scans and references
 
It's taking me a bit, but here's what I have for Gin: Gin is regarded as a Genius by the Soul Society, graduating from Shin'o academy in only one year and becoming a seated officer while still only a child. He was slated for the third seat position right when he joined while being only as old or possibly younger than Byakuya Kuchiki (15-19, ******** sucks for using right click for going back a page.) He is also a liar, Being able to gain the information about Kyoka Suigetsu without being exposed to it, and Hiding his Bankai's ability even from Aizen. He is an expert at keeping his emotions and killing intent hidden even in combat from people like Ichigo Kurosaki and Sosuke Aizen, the former being able to read his opponent's emotion and killing intent (forgive me for the Ginjo one), and the latter being able to see someone's entire goal from their expression alone. His swordsmanship is excellent, being able to duel the likes of extraordinarily skilled prodigies such as Ichigo Kurosaki and Toshiro Hitsugaya, in addition to killing the original 3rd seat of his division while still only a child, being able to bridge the experience gap. Tactically, he is deceptive and manipulative, using unnecessary enviromental destruction, useless information, and lying as a way to hide his abilities in combat.
