Talk:January 2001 El Salvador earthquake

Information
The article is off to a great start, but there are a few additions called for. The table lists fatalities and injured, but does not mention the vastly larger number of people who were homeless for a significant period of time. The article itself doesn't mention the connection between the earthquakes' devastation and the decision by the U.S. to provide Temporary Protected Status to thousands of Salvadorans illegally in the States &mdash; a status that has been continually extended through to the present day &mdash; nor the hundreds of aftershocks between the two earthquakes. I'll try to get to it soon, but I'm in the middle of an assessment project, so it could be a while. The notes are here in case someone else wants to take it up.

Possible source
Look Japan has an article about Japanese doctor Joji Tomioka, who assisted the victims https://web.archive.org/web/20010622111644/http://lookjapan.com/LBsc/01MayFrom.htm WhisperToMe (talk) 10:09, 1 May 2019 (UTC)

Earthquake mechanisms
This section is a verbatim copy of the cited source. Being from the USGS, it is of course in the public domain, but we can do better than that. It's unhelpful because it comes from the USGS preliminary report on the February 2001 El Salvador earthquake, so it's confusing as well. I will be rewriting it completely.

Rewriting complete, although I may find something to add to the much shortened "earthquake" section. Mikenorton (talk) 17:04, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
