Article life[edit]

When researching for my new article Spyros B. Pavlides I noticed that he numerously reported about the 1999 Athens earthquake, but wikipedia did not know about this disaster. I guess there is more Turkish editors here than Greek ones. Laudak 04:55, 28 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Inconsistent magnitude[edit]

The introduction to the article and the infobox state a 6.0M_w magnitude but, in the Damage section of the article, the magnitude is reported as a 6.7M_w. So... which is it? --12.43.115.249 (talk) 13:33, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The magnitude was 6.0, the 6.7 is referring to an earthquake in 1981. I edited it to make it more clear. RapidR (talk) 15:03, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
