QPQ: Done.

Overall: A QPQ is not needed. ~~I don't see the two hooks in the article. The article needs categories.~~ SL93 (talk) 16:11, 27 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I believe I have fixed all the issues with the article now. SamBroGaming (talk) 16:51, 27 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

SamBroGaming Can you add exactly what the hooks say or come up with new hooks? You only added "An earthquake of this size would devastate coastal areas." which doesn't match the hooks at all. SL93 (talk) 20:21, 27 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

SL93 I have fixed the issues with the content not fully appearing in the article, with both hooks being added. SamBroGaming (talk) 02:45, 30 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This is ready. I didn't get back to this until now because a car hit me while I was walking. SL93 (talk) 13:41, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@SamBroGaming and SL93:
