Notability
editThis article isn't notible enough to be in an encyclopedia and it only has 1 reference so it lacks verifiability.--Langloisrg (talk) 21:58, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
- An earthquake with a death-toll of 110,000 sounds pretty notable to me. And the USGS is pretty reliable as sources for earthquakes go. DuncanHill (talk) 12:04, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Which one?
editWhich one is it? The first sentence says 6th deadliest, the table says 12th and when you go to the list it's 11th. Which one should it be? Soeb talk|contribs 04:50, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
- The events that Time chose are a random selection of high death toll earthquakes and are not a complete list of historical earthquakes. I've removed the sentence and we probably shouldn't be stating absolutes like that anyway as future events will make more maintenance on the articles. Dawnseeker2000 02:38, 23 May 2012 (UTC)
