Evaluate the drafted changes
Lead

Because you are adding an entirely new section to the article, you must also update the lead or introductory paragraph to include this new information. Content

I like the idea of giving historical background to show that this event is not a rare one time thing. The first two bullet points make sense under the new section title, but the third one could potentially be its own section entirely. I would suggest making it a new section or altering the title of the section you already made to be more inclusive. For example, "Geological History of Fiji".

Tone/Balance

The tone is very informative and neutral which is what Wikipedia pages should be. The section seems to be balanced when looking at the length of the other sections already published.

Sources/References

Sources 1,3,and 4 seem to be from reliable sources. The second source I was unable to open and check its credibility. I would just go back and make sure it is from a reliable place. The citations within the text seem to be correct in format.

Organization

At the moment it is bullet points, but for the final revision I recommend placing the information in a paragraph format. To separate the different events try bolding them to make them stand out from the information about then. The bullet point for the "plate tectonic history of Fiji" is already in paragraph format with transitional

Right now the formatting is bullet points, but I would create more of a cohesive paragraph format. To separate the events try bolding the names and then typing the information about them unbolded.

Media/Images

The images already in the article seem to be well placed, but since you are adding new information add additional photos. You discuss damage to the islands, so maybe include some images of the aftermath of the previous earthquakes. Also if you know nothing of plate boundaries the paragraph orientation of the information may be difficult to comprehend. Consider adding a diagram of the subduction zone.

Overall Impression

Overall I believe this to be a good start to the article revisions. It added information to help explain the geological setting of Fiji which is important to understanding the earthquakes that occur there.

Andrew's Reply
I agree with your first comment about adding to the lead section. I will make sure to add some information regarding the new section in the lead section. I will look into the problem with the second citation. Regarding the organization, we are just trying to list down all the information we have. Afterwards, we will most likely format the information into a paragraph with bolded sub-headers. Also, we will definitely add more images related to the new information that we are adding.
