Little more than a stub. violet/riga (t) 21:22, 19 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Coverage and factuality: 2
No inline citations, but all info is probably covered by external link. Just a few paragraphs. No doubt has major omissions. (Doesn't mention where the quake's name comes from).
  • Writing style: 3
Spelling and grammar are fine, but Seattle should've been mentioned sooner. Doesn't explain the word subduction. Barely keeps interest.
  • Structure: 1
No lead, images, templates or tables. Gets 1 point for being linked to.
  • Aesthetics: 1
Is essentially a stub and looks the part.
  • Overall: 2
Needs massive expansion. - Mgm|(talk) 21:43, 26 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
