 * Harischandra Range and Harishchandra Range (left question about which spelling to use at WP:INDIA) 05:23, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Maybe the second is a typo of the first (see bolded text in intro). According to this page, it was named for Harishchandra. NOTE: Harischandra was merged into Harishchandra ten years ago because "this is a more common name, especially in the Indian context." (See Talk:Harishchandra.) 19:48, 18 January 2016 (UTC)


 * List of historical tsunamis needs to be cut out of that article and added to Prehistoric tsunamis (which is also a list, and probably needs to be moved to List of prehistoric tsunamis)
 * Abdul Rauf Aliza and Abdul Rauf (Taliban governor)?

Commonly used
These phrases, concepts, or subjects are often used in Wikipedia but have no articles of their own. To me, they seem important enough to have articles.


 * short-run printing
 * biological child
 * high-containment laboratory (the whole concept of containment?)
 * —from Wiktionary, two relevant definitions (Wikipedia only deals with #1):
 * 1) a policy of checking the expansion of a hostile foreign power by creating alliances with other states; especially the foreign policy strategy of the United States in the early years of the Cold War.
 * 2) a physical system designed to prevent the accidental release of radioactive or other dangerous materials from a nuclear reactor or industrial plant.
 * —The concept of any kind of containment of dangerous material (not just nuclear) needs to be added.

Inadequate articles

 * Chungar is a disambiguation page that wants to be an article:
 * Chungar (camp) (11° 7' S, 76° 32' W), the camp of a mining company in Peru which was destroyed by a landslide into Yanawayin Lake


 * On March 19, 1971, an earthquake set off a series of calamities—a landslide, flood, and avalanche—that resulted in the destruction of the town of Chungar, Peru, and the deaths of more than four hundred people. Chungar was a mining camp in the Andes Mountains, where workers and their families lived while exploiting a nearby mine. The camp was some 15,000 feet above sea level, yet still thousands of feet below some nearby peaks. On March 19, a small earthquake centered in the Andes Mountains prompted a landslide along the slopes of a mountain near Chungar. The landslide caused a massive amount of dirt and water to plunge into a lake that sat above Chungar. The displaced water from the lake flooded down the hillside toward Chungar, triggering an avalanche of snow, mud, and rock along the way. Within seconds, water, snow, rocks, and mud swallowed Chungar and its people.


 * There is no article, only a redirect, for Nigawa Landslide. It redirects to Great Hanshin earthquake.
 * - There is a tiny stub for Ulu Klang, Selangor, which states that the pace is rife with landslides. Certainly not enough to add a category for Landslides in Selangor. Now categorized with Landslides in Malaysia
 * - Another in Selangor: 2002 Taman Hillview bungalow collapse Now categorized with Landslides in Malaysia
 * - Mamayes landslide redirects to 1985 Atlantic hurricane season. Now it redirects to 1985 Puerto Rico floods.
