Talk:1997 Qayen earthquake/GA1

GA Review
The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.''

The article looks good, but it needs some work before I can pass it as a Good Article.


 * Infobox:
 * Unlink dates.
 * Is the tsunami field really necessary?
 * Done.


 * Background and tectonics:
 * Link "significant earthquakes in the country" to List of earthquakes in Iran instead of "one".
 * The first major earthquake in the region since 1979, the rupture was recorded... – Replace that sentence with something like "The 1997 Qayen earthquake was the first major earthquake in the region since 1979. The rupture was recorded..."
 * Link Mw to Moment magnitude scale.
 * This rupture occurred on – Replace "this" with "the".
 * Link Eurasian Plate and Arabian Plate.
 * Replace the hyphen between 12,000 and 20,000 with an endash.
 * Same with 20 and 25.
 * Done.


 * Relief efforts:
 * "respond promptly and with generosity." – Move the full stop out of the quotation marks.
 * Link Red Cross.
 * Done

I'll put the article on hold for seven days. Good luck with improving it! :)  The Le ft orium  11:38, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Other:
 * Expand the lead a little with some information from the Relief efforts section.
 * Spell out 2 and 5 in the Damage and casualties section.
 * Done.
