1992 St. George earthquake

Created by Nihonjoe (talk). Self-nominated at 00:17, 19 March 2020 (UTC).

  • Symbol question.svgArticle is new enough and long enough. I am not sure if the earthquake occurred near the Hurricane Fault (as the source seems to imply) or on the fault as the article says. I think that the sentence supported by #3 would be better sourced to #1. Template:Tq needs sourcing. AGFing on #2 and #6. Perhaps the hook would be better worded as "... that the 1992 St. George earthquake did more damage outside of St. George?". Didn't notice any copyvio or plagiarism. QPQ is OK and sources look reliable to me. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 10:18, 19 March 2020 (UTC)
  • Template:Re Will you separate out each thought in your paragraph into bullet points or something? It's hard to understand which parts belong to which parts with how things are worded. Thanks! ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 18:09, 19 March 2020 (UTC)
Template:Ping: These are the issues left:
  • I am not sure if the earthquake occurred near the Hurricane Fault (as the source seems to imply) or on the fault as the article says.
  • I think that the sentence supported by #3 would be better sourced to #1.
  • Template:Tq needs sourcing.
  • Perhaps the hook would be better worded as "... that the 1992 St. George earthquake did more damage outside of St. George?".

Template:Re I've fixed the wording for the first item. I added #1 as a source to the only sentence with #3 as a source. I see no issue with using multiple sources there. I added the source for the third item. It looks like I had simply forgotten to copy it over. I'm fine with the wording either way. If you want to list it as an ALT, we can then use it. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 20:43, 19 March 2020 (UTC)
Symbol voting keep.svg And added ALT1. Note that the source does not say that the earthquake is named after the town, but that's rather pedantic. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 21:07, 19 March 2020 (UTC)
It doesn't, but it would seem to be one of those obvious things that doesn't need a source. I'm fine with ALT1. Thanks for taking the time to review this one, Template:U. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 00:53, 20 March 2020 (UTC)
