Talk:1992 Guadalajara explosions

Undid edit claiming Mayor Dau Flores had died
I'm not sure why it was added but there was no citation and cursory search for Enrique Dau Flores finds him here:. From what I've been able to gather, he spent 8 months incarcerated and has since held various positions, most notably in a controversial role at the Jalisco Water Commission. Anyhow, only the english page was altered so to play it safe I undid the changes until someone on the Editorial/Mexico page gets around to deciding whether or not the unsourced and untrue statement should go back in.

Incomprehensible section
I was trying to fix the text "April 25: Panic in the colonies May 5, the dean, Echeverría and Polanco, firefighters are asked to not light any flames, due to a strong smell of gas, but later confirmed it was a leak in a pipe Pemex" which makes no sense. But I couldn't decide what it was supposed to say. Suggestions? — Preceding unsigned comment added by ExpatSalopian (talk • contribs) 13:16, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

Rewrite Done -- Is It Better?
I fixed most of the punctuation. The grammar was not as bad as indicated by the edit summary on the Multiple issues tag. I assumed that most of the perceived problems came from the article's contents' being translated literally from sources in Spanish. I also put the Aftermath section after the chronology and split it into Investigation and Aftermath.

I do not think I left anything that would fall under the Multiple issues tag so I removed it. JimCubb (talk) 00:56, 20 February 2011 (UTC)

From some historical buffs that I know, they claim that it is accurate. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.146.120.73 (talk) 05:10, 18 November 2011 (UTC)

This page needs a map of the event's incidents.
Could something be done, possible using OSM data? Will (Talk - contribs) 17:17, 9 October 2018 (UTC)

Gas lines?
If I understand the article correctly, it attributes the explosions to leakage of gasoline from gasoline lines. To my knowledge, most cities do not have gasoline lines. Natural gas, often, but not gasoline. Perhaps this is common in Mexico? It would be helpful if the article would explain why Guadalajara had gasoline lines.Bill (talk) 00:05, 18 October 2019 (UTC)

This wasn't a municipal utility line; it was a pipeline belonging to the Pemex gasoline plant. I've added that information to the article. It is common for this kind of pipeline to be used to distribute gasoline from the plant where it is produced to storage facilities. This is done in the United States as well.
