  • My first thoughts were that this article was a bit contrived to combine pollution and earthquakes as a single issue, but the cited Payvand article does indeed write about both as reasons for moving Iran's capital city. So unless someone objects to the article imminently, it looks okay to me, new enough, long enough, using inline citations appropriately. Hook is fine, interesting enough. I'd suggest the image is a bit weak and unnecessary, it's not overtly about pollution. Apart from that, good to go! Sionk (talk) 19:00, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
