Article is new enough, long enough, and well referenced. Hook is interesting and verified with sources. Image looks good and is freely licensed. QPQ is done. The only issue is that the sentence "that the shock was strongest on the south coast and less strong in the north" is copied verbatim from the source and needs to be rephrased. -Zanhe (talk) 06:29, 10 August 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks. Have reworded—there's probably a direct quote in there somewhere but a paraphrase was easier... :) MIDI (talk) 10:58, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
- Given it's only three weeks from 11 Sep, any scope in holding off on running this one until then? MIDI (talk) 11:02, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
